Hi.

I have managed to find the tape images for irix 3.3.2 (.tar.gz) but
unfortuntely I can't work out how to network boot the Personal IRIS.

As far as I can tell I have included the right information in the
/etc/ethers file and the /etc/bootptab files..

but when I try and start the net boot up and running, it tells me,

couldn't load bootp()192.168.0.2:/video/irix/sa(sash.IP6)

any ideas... I have managed to get network booting working on many
other platforms but for some reason this is stumping me...

Benjamin
