While updating to the latest September 29 snapshot on my 712/100,
I run into 2 problems:

1. bsd.rd failed to load:

>> OpenBSD/hppa BOOT 0.8
boot> boot bsd.rd
booting dk0a:bsd.rd: 1839660+2654208+376832 [52+91056+74840/

and then cursor froze after "/" and nothing happens.

2. I though maybe my boot loader was too old so updated my lif boot
blocks with the new supplied xxboot.

But that boot loader autoboot bsd immediatly. Annoying. So I reverted
back to 3.3 xxboot (the one inside base33.tg).


Beside that I didn't get any scsi reset error so I was happily
surprised.


I'm also kind of wondering if there's something in hardware that
stop the built-in display from having at least the bold attribute
(and maybe reverse video (black on white)).

Also, I got arround to take pictures of my 712/100:

Thanks all for a working BSD on hppa.
