Hi!

I just got a 735/99, but I can't boot it. It came along with two HDDs
(on the narrow SCSI bus), a FDDI interface on the CPU/RAM board and a
"normal" ethernet interface (Intel chip) in the EISA slot:


BOOT_ADMIN> lan_addr
LAN Station Address:  080009-836dca
BOOT_ADMIN> fddi_addr
FDDI Station Address:  080009-836dcb
BOOT_ADMIN> boot lan

Trying lan.000000-000000.0.0
Cannot find ENTRY_INIT.

I don't have a FDDI network at home, only RJ45 ethernet is available.
Additionally, I don't have an external CD-ROM drive handy atm. Should I
just wait until I get my drives back?
