I am trying upgrade my alpha to 5.1-RELEASE it is currently running
5.1-Beta. I tried CVS but the buildworld keeps on failing, plus I kinda
want a clean install.

All the firmware sees is a floppy and two ide drives, i tried putting an
adaptec scsi card in to use a cdrom but the firmware wont see the card.
Because it is a running system is there a way i could get the iso or
something similar onto the second drive and boot into an install from
this?

Thanks much.

Paul Halliday.
