The bootblocks work on most controllers, but some boards won't boot from this. The Blizzard 1260 with SCSI IV won't, for instance. In my A1200, I boot the kernel from a CF with this image, then use an SSD on the SCSI bus as the root partition.

This is the same with the Blizzard2060 for example. The solution is to install the Berkeley Filesystem on your root Partition.

you can optain it from Aminet: http://aminet.net/package/misc/emu/bffs

you can also use it to Exchange data between Amiga and netbsd because they are accessable from the Workbench.

Thank you for this Project! makes it much more easier for more People!

I did a lot of Software for NetBSD like Games, Webbrowsers, Desktopmanagers, Fileutils, Email-Clients and more! you can Access the packages very easy from
