+ <p>You should now be able to boot NetBSD/bebox using this command:<pre>
+         <b>gxemul -X -E bebox -d nbsd_bebox.img netbsd</b>
+ </pre>
+ <p>When asked for the root device, enter <b><tt>wd0a</tt></b>.
+ <p><font color="#ff0000">IT DOES <b>NOT</b> WORK YET</font>, there are
+ errors while uncompressing the tgz files, and the machine crashes when
+ trying to run /sbin/init.
