Hi,
I am trying to install NetBSD, but I am running into a
"NFS Portmap: RPC: Port mapper failure - RPC: Timed out" error.
I have a Gateway 2000 Pentium 90 with a 3Com 3c509 ethernet card
using IRQ 3 and I/O base address 300H. I have used the card
before, and it seems to be fully functional.
What should I do to correct this problem? Here is part of my
installation dialogue:
- Some stuff that seemed ok left out -

I am using a nfsaha.fs floppy I made after downloading the file and
rawriting it to a formatted floppy.
