I'm of the distinct impression that the 2000 isn't an easy machine to get NetBSD up and running on. I spent three long nights trying to get everything set up so I could netboot NetBSD on mine, with no luck. Not quite sure why I wasted so much time on this, since I want to run VMS. I get the impression the easy way to do it would be to load the Hard Drive on a full blown system, then put the HD in the 2000. Admitadly I'm not sure if my problem was the machines I tried to used to netboot off of, my Linux server, and a Pentium running OPENSTEP. Or if there was something wrong with the 2000, or if it was something else. Personally I got my 2000 to format disks for my larger systems anyway. Zane | Zane H.
