System: NetBSD radiant.jarai.net 1.6 NetBSD 1.6 (RADIANT) #0: Mon Nov 25 09:35:19 PST 2002 bdc@radiant.jarai.net:/u0/usr/src/sys/arch/vax/compile/RADIANT vax
Architecture: vax
Machine: vax
>Description:
	The mopcopy command fails to properly translate the `boot' second
	stage boot loader, as provided in the NetBSD/vax 1.6 release, to
	a MOP image.  It instead turns the 64KB boot loader into a 67_MB_
	lump of useless data.  The end result is that NetBSD/vax 1.6 can't
	be used by people who boot their systems disklessly.
