I playing around with a DECstation 5000/240 with some limited success. I have
had limited success with the decstation kernel with my main problem being
that it has the boot prom that doesn't like to tftp boot so I have been
trying the MOP loader, anybody else using it?
I notice two things.
* The MOP loader needs to be updated if you plan to use 2.1.X or 2.2.X. I
sent a message to the maintainer to see if it was going to be updated but
haven't recieved a reply as of yet. Doesn't look appear to hard to
move it to the new kernel, anybody interested in this? I'm working on
doing it now just trying to see a need or desire for it.
* Is anybody booting the decstation kernel from the local hard drive with
any reasonable amount of success? I made a few attemps with out much
success.
Thanks!
