Hello All,

I have many doubt's about intallation of NetBSD on my box.
We can
begin for boot. I can't boot my box using my Cd-rom. I dont
know what
is wrong, but i was follow the INSTALL file. I try all
alternatives,
but i can't do it.

Another doubt is about the files that there are on the
Cd-rom, for
exemplo the file afwboot.xcf and netbsd.macppc. There aren't
the file
afwboot.xcf and netbsd.macppc on the ( / ) structure of the
Cd-rom,
but i have put in it as arguments on the boot command.

When i use the dir command i always have some errors about
that not
possible open my devices, i follow exactly what the
documentation say,
but i have problems. I never got to use this command and i
dont what
is wrong.

When i try to boot for floppy disks i have another problem,
the first
floppy was good without errors, my box eject this and order
to the
second one. When i put in the second, the floppy unit begin
to read it
and only stop without show me a error. I already try four
floppy
disks, but i didn't have a successfull.

I don't know exactly what does it mean " May need to
disconnect the
internal cdrom drive to boot from any device". This
part is about my
box ( 9500 ) on the page Model Support ( Reason / Remarks ).
It mean
that a have to disconnect my Cd-rom, if i do it how can i do
one boot
with my Cd-rom ?

Can someone help me please?

I appreciate some help.

regards,

Marcos Luiz Onisto
