N/A, but it's a SUN SparcStation 5
>Description:
This error occures i'm trying to install NetBSD-2.0 on my SparcStation 5,
when i'm trying to load instfs.tgz from floppy #2.

It says
gzip: stdin not in gzip format
and then a few errors from tar.

i've tried writing the image to the disk using rawritexp, dd on NetBSD/i386 and dd on NetBSD/sparc. with and without bs=36k conv=sync.
>How-To-Repeat:
1) Boot from disk one.
2) Choose floppy to load the installation.
3) Insert disk two.
>Fix:

Date: Thu, 24 Dec 2009 14:56:14 +0000

 Module Name:	src
 Committed By:	tsutsui
 Date:		Thu Dec 24 14:56:14 UTC 2009

 Modified Files:
 	src/distrib/sparc/ramdisk: dot.profile

 Log Message:
 Use /dev/fd0a rather than /dev/rfd0a to read instfs.tgz image from floppy.
 It looks newer (appearred after 1.6) gzip tries to read less than DEV_BSIZE
 (to check header?) so we can't use raw device directly.
 (note sparc bootfs ramdisk doesn't have dd(1))

 Workaround for PR port-sparc/42193, and would also fix PR install/28734.

 Build miniroot binaries for sparc with -Os to shrink instfs.tgz
 for the second boot floppy which use miniroot objects.
 This is workaround for PR install/42146, and ok'ed by mrg@.
 Don't try to read disklabel to check FS_RAID on floppy boot since
 reopening floppy could cause Data Access Exception later.
 Fixes PR port-sparc/42186, ok'ed by mrg@.
 Disable "fast trap" handlers which invoke software interrupts
 in sparc/amd7930intr.s and sparc/bsd_fdintr.s until they are
 rewritten to adapt new MI softint(9) API.
 No particular comments on PR port-sparc/42192, but
 this fixes timeout problem on floppy access on my SPARCstation 1+.
 XXX: floppy support on sun4m seems to have another problem (data overrun).
 Use /dev/fd0a rather than /dev/rfd0a to read instfs.tgz image from floppy.
 It looks newer (appearred after 1.6) gzip tries to read less than DEV_BSIZE
 (to check header?) so we can't use raw device directly.
 (note sparc bootfs ramdisk doesn't have dd(1))
 Workaround for PR port-sparc/42193, and would also fix PR install/28734.
 Explicitly clear AUXIO4M_FTC bit in FTC_FLIP macro used on
 pseudo-dma for floppy, as well as AUXIO4C_FTC bit for sun4c.
 A comment in the macro says AUXIO4M_FTC bit is auto-clear,
 but my two SS20s (including compatible) with 150MHz hyperSPARCs
 get data_overrun without it, and no bad side effect on SS5
 (works with and without this change).
 Closes PR port-sparc/42516, which is the last one of a bunch of
 floppy issue on NetBSD/sparc since NetBSD 2.0 days. See
 http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/port-sparc/2009/12/20/msg000484.html
