Yeah, well, NetBSD has always worked fine for me too, and it was
working fine in this same OS X installation just before I wiped the
old virtual machine and decided to reinstall from scratch using a
fresh ISO image.  Same here, Fusion 2.0.2 and Tiger 10.4.11.  So I
conclude there is something wrong in /boot...
