This is regarding my previous message about trying to boot a Next off a Sun 3/160 running Sun OS 4.0.3. The problem seems to have been with the way I tarred the Next filesystem to the Sun. I recopied the Next filesystem using tar with the pB flags set. The Next boots and runs like the happy camper it is. FYI: Since Sun does not provide bootp I ftp'd a pd version from uunet.uu.net. It works just fine. Sun does provide bootparam service and it works just fine. Mark Nichols New Mexico State University mnichols@nmsu.edu (505) 646-5115
