Update on Sun3 and shoebox

    Well, I was finally able to make two QIC tapes (boot and install) using
NetBSD for x86. The tape drive ran fine, with no errors.

    So then I hooked the shoebox up to the 3/50 that I have, and using the
monitor, issued "b st(0,6,0)" to boot from the tape. The 3/50 seems to
access the drive (I can see the heads move), but either aborts with a
"Device Not Found" error, or the following:

    scsi getbyte failed
    invalid status message = FFFFFFFF
    st: sense key = 6 error = 29

    I'm not able to get any further than this. Any thoughts??
