There where some versions of ARC firmware without an option to switch
to SRM. I dim remember a user on the NetBSD/alpha mailing list with
this problem. He finaly got to SRM by hitting ^C at a very special
point in POST, "set os_type Unix" and he was done.

Hmmm. I should undust my PWS 500au and play a bit of NetBSD on it again.
