Hi all.

        I have a hp9000/300 with 2 9144A tapes drives, a 7962B and a 7958B
hard disk drives, a 9127B floppy disk drive, a 98751A color display, and I
run HP-Ux 8 on it.

        I want to install NetBSD-1.2, I can boot from the tape drive, which
gets me into sys_inst, but I don't know what number I have to give to the
disklabel command. Both disks are on HP-IB at 14, but I don't  know their
slave number ( which I need to calculate the unit number disklabel
needs)...How do I get these ?

                        Jb.
