Do you have IDE disks along with your SCSI disks? Your BIOS may not see da2 as a bootable disk. Having da2 implies you have da1, and most BIOSen will only boot the first two disks in the system. You can boot up if you start the MFS floppy, hit a key at the spinning bar, then type 'da(2,a)' at the prompt.
