if should be possible for someone to send you a disk with enough of a
NetBSD install to get the rest of the system installed.
Ahh... I just realized this wasn't posted in the NetBSD port-vax list.
Need more coffee.
NetBSD is no problem. I simply extraced all the packages to a linux box
and now can netboot via mopd, dhcpd and nfs. Took me some time to figure
it out but now it runs without problems. On a VS2000 it unfortunately is
unusable slow. Did not yet try the VS3200.
At the moment I am trying to install Unltrix 4.5.
If anyone can tell me how to netboot Ultrix from a linux box that would
be an option as well...
