hi there


i've install NetBSD/Alpha and want to utilise the disk in full
instead of just the rz25 layout.


i have disklabel the disk but unable to install the /usr/mdec/boot
and /usr/mdec/bootxx onto the boot area.

put it another way, i want to create another bootable disk of NetBSD/Alpha
w/o dd rz25-image.

any advice?
