  Pmax port: Maxine 5000/20

  I've had a hell of a time.  I got diskless boot to work, using FreeBSD as
the boot server.  With 8M of ram and nfs swap and a nice -n 20 on make for
the kernel I finialy got a kernel to compile, now after disklabeling I
try to boot typeing

  >> boot 3/rz2/netbsd

and I get ...

  3/rz2/netbsd: bad magic 30162
  Can't boot '3/rz2/netbsd'

  If anyone has any idears I would apreciate it.
