mopd instructions.              atp.    16th March 1999

  mopd speaks the maintenance operations protocol, which is currently
  the easiest way of getting the test images into the microvax.

  The mopd I use can be downloaded from
  ftp://ftp.mssl.ucl.ac.uk/projects/linux-vax

  This is the netbsd version with enhancements by Karl Maftoum.

  Usage;

   On your Linux/i386 system:

      as root

         ifconfig eth0 promisc
   mopd -a

      mopd will look for files of the form

       /tftpboot/mop/>yourVAXesMACaddress<.SYS

       e.g.
        [atp@mssllc /]$ ls /tftpboot/mop/
   08002b0fbba6.SYS

     Obviously you will need to change that to match your microvaxes
     MAC address.

     You also may wish to  SET HALT 3 before you  BOOT ESA0 at the console.
