It has three disks, (2xRF71 and a RF72), and a TK70 tape drive. I copied a boot tape and a root tape, booted "b/3 mua0", and started edlabel. So far so good: With this program.... Label which disk? ra(0,0,0) Trying to label the first disk, in VMS named as dia0: But nothing happens, edlabel just starts all over again! I've tried a lot of other values as parameters, all with the same result. My question is: Is it possible to run netbsd on this VAX, and if so: How?
