Hi again. I would like to set up my system so I am able to reboot the system
remotely. Right now when I reboot, I use a boot disk to get to the NetBSD
boot 'command line' where I have to type wd(1,a)/netbsd to get it to boot
from the hard drive. If I am not local on the system to typ this in,
it tries to boot from the floppy. I don't mind using the boot disk, but
is there any way I can make it so it automatically knows where the kernel
is so I don't have to type it locally every time? My NetBSD drive is the
second drive (wd1) and is NOT a partition of the dos drive, but a separate
drive in itself. Thanks.
