I can get the file system set up. and I can install the apropriate parts (etc, bin, netbsd, comp, man) but when I try to get it to boot using the booting software, it gives me an error and says it's not tested on this machine, puts up a screen saying loading netbsd or something, then crashes. Can anyone help? I formatted the HD as a A/UX HD like it says to..but I have no idea what the problem is. Can anyone help? I used the installation software from the NetBSD ftp site, Mkfs, MacBSD Install Utility 1.0, and MacBSD_Booter_1.4. Does anyone have any suggestions? -- ************************************************************ * Matthew Murphy Eggplant@Inlink.com * ---------------- * http://www.inlink.com/~eggplant ************************************************************ Finger: eggplant@inlink.com for my PGP key
