I have a HP 300 & I've downloaded netBSD, The Problem is I can't find whe=
re BSD can install from my floppy
drive (HP 9122C) . Most of the documentation details how to load from tap=
e but no support for my HP 1300S.
I would like to install from floppy if possible. I have a SCSI CDrom just=
no CDR to rawrite an install disc.
Hi. The address netbsd-help@mit.edu is for problems with the
local NetBSD installation we use at MIT. For general NetBSD/hp300
stuff, you'd be better off subscribing to and asking the
port-hp300@netbsd.org mailing list; you can send mail with the body
"help" to majordomo@netbsd.org or look at http://www.netbsd.org/ for
more details on the list.
That said, if you look at the install document closely, it
claims that non-listed hardware isn't supported, and from my own
experience with NetBSD/hp300, the floppy drives aren't supported at
all, much less for installation.
