Hi All- Well, I was able to boot my AS200 4/166 into sysinstall using the kern.flp and mfsroot.gz from 3.0-19981125-SNAP by dd'ing the kern.flp onto two floppies and puting mfsroot.gz one of them. However, sysinstall wouldn't find my disks ... it did find both of the NIC's in the box. So, I decided to try the latest set of floppies; however, I get the following: >>>boot dva0 (boot dva0.0.0.0.1) block 0 of dva0.0.0.0.1 is a valid boot block reading 14 blocks from dva0.0.0.0.1 bootstrap code read in base = 1f2000, image_start = 0, image_bytes = 1c00 initializing HWRPB at 2000 initializing page table at 1e4000 initializing machine state setting affinity to the primary CPU jumping to bootstrap code Console: SRM firmware console VMS PAL rev: 0x1000000010538 OSF PAL rev: 0x100000002012e Switch to OSF PAL code succeeded. FreeBSD/alpha SRM disk boot, Revision (jkh@beast.cdrom.com, Mon Dec 7 01:35:39 GMT 1998) Memory: 65536 k /kernel data=0x1e80a8+0x26920 zf_read: fill error elf_loadexec: archsw.readin failed load: can't load module '/kernel': input/output error Hit [Enter] to boot immediately, or any other key for command prompt. Booting [kernel]... can't load 'kernel' Bummer! Any hints, tips? Is this something I can solve by mounting the floppy on an x86 box and editing one/some of the files in /boot? I am currently doing this via a serial console but it does have a Mach64 in it.
