This does not seem like the NetBSD hybrid ISO -- usually because of the partition zero fragment you canNOT list its directory. Where did you get the image? Did you build this yourself? And did you burn it properly in Toast? If you did this right, Toast should see the NetBSD macppccd.iso image as hybrid HFS/ISO 9660. Putting this aside, assuming this is the hybrid ISO, a full boot path should not be necessary. On my 7300 (CD ID#2, on the 5MB/s bus), the CD boot path was boot scsi/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:0 NETBSD.MACPPC -- ----------------------------- personal page: http://www.armory.com/~spectre/ -- Cameron Kaiser, Floodgap Systems Ltd * So.
