Hi,

I'm trying to install NetBSD 1.2.1 on my SPARCstation 1+. I'm booting off the
net and my bootserver is a linux machine. The kernel loads fine, but when it
tries to mount the root filesystem over NFS, it says 'RPC timeout for server
0xc0a8003'. This is strange, because the 1st stage loader just mounted the
same directory to get the kernel... Anybody has any idea how to fix this?
