I'm glad to see that there are certain people whe are still running
NetBSD/hp300. :-)

Well, to be honest, miniroot has not been tested for long time.
(there are too many hp300 specific descriptions in install.md script
 and I don't have idea how I should fix it properly...)

Maybe sysinst based RAMDISK kernel (which can be booted by SYS_UBOOT
via NFS) is recommended. The install document should also be updated,
but any help will be appreciated ;-)

Ah, it's a fallout on MI SCSI migration.
I've committed it, thanks.
