Hi again.

Ok, at work i've tryed several things. With the following mehtod, i can boot
from disk and change the rootdevice to the scsi disk after loading the
kernel:


>>> boot dva0 - flags n

[ booting kernel ]

and after booting the kernel i must insert the rootdevice ( -n flag)

ufs:da0a

and he boots from my scsi drive.

but the problem is, how can i automatize the boot-process? 

a) normaly the alpha-machin boots with "boot dva0" how can i add the flag?
b) how can i set the rootdev static to da0a ?

Olli
