Anyone remember off the top of their heads why the Alpha bootloader had to be 
downloaded over TFTP?  Is there a good reason why it couldn't be started from a 
floppy (or hard disk)?

Last time I tried to get it up and running, the Alpha boot stuff didn't like 
being served from a non-Plan9 server...

...and yes, I know the Alpha is dying.  I'm not giving mine up, though.
