I have followed the instructions for the installation of netbsd, yet when I boot off the installation disk I created, it says:
boot fd0a:netbsd.gz
909312exec: short read
boot: fd0a:netbsd.gz Input/Output error
I have created the floppy from a sun station, and then created one using the web site and rawrite, and both failed.
My system is a 133MHz MMx laptop with win95 on the first partition.
My ethernet link is through a 3com etherlink III 589D card.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Fred
