	Thanks for the info!  I will try to remember that for next 
time.  For now,s ince I replaced the HD and reinstalled netbsd in 
this larger drive, I have no problems logging in as root.

	It seems it was a bit confused using "scsi" as the target:

scsi: Unknown device.

NEWS> bo

	Me too!  However, right now I still am not able to turn on 
the machine and have it boot itself.  I enabled autoboot (jumper 5 = 
on) and turned the machine on but it has not booted on me:  my 
console window (connected to its serial port) reports nothing.  And, 
after having the machine on for the night, I cannot ping (IP 
#10.0.0.19 ) it either (I decided to do that in case it simply did 
not want to write to console):
