[NMLUG] NetBSD on SS5 problems.

[timothyemerick at yahoo.com (Tim Emerick)]

So, I've been pulling my hair out trying to get this stupid netbsd installed on my sparcstation5/170.  I thought I was having problems trying to identify my CD drives.  I have a separate CD stack that came with this that has 6 CD drives in it.  I was just assuming that the top CD was cd0.  On a whim I threw the multi-cd1 (install) disk in the bottom drive and tried to install yet again.  Surprise, surprise, surprise !!!!  (to quote gomer pyle)  Install was as simple as I had hoped it would be in the beginning.
 
Sorry for being such a lunkhead to all the folks that had to read my past postings on this.
 
I'm sure you've all heard the joke about the tech support guy fielding a phone call from an irate customer that couldn't get his computer to work.  After much troubleshooting it turns out it was never plugged into the electrical socket.  I'm very red-faced at this moment.
 
Cheers all!!!
