I have a copy of Mt. Xinu More/BSD for the MicroVAX II, I am trying to bootstrap
it on a KA630-AA with a TK-50 and a single RD51.  I run the diagnostics on the
disk, and have low level formatted it.  Diagnostics check out fine on the whole
CPU.  But when I try and execute the copy program from the TK-50 I get this far

From: tms(0,1)
To: ra(0,1)

It then complains about how it can't ONLINE the disk, I have gotten the tape to
boot and copy the root partition to the disk, but it seems that the disk cannot
be ONLINE'd does anyone have any experience with this version of BSD and what
I may be screwing up?  Thanks in Advance.
