>Description:
When i try to install NetBSD 1.4.x i get lots of errors. First:
NetBSD 1.4.2 does not boot. So i tried NetBSD 1.4. That's ok (there
is only a message: "device md0 (0xd00) not configured", but i use
md0a, md0b and the system boots). When i try to copy a miniroot to
my system i get the following (see how to repeat).
Is there someone who can tell me what i am doing wrong? Is there
an online man page for edlabel? (i do not know the allowed types)

Thank for all help

Matthias
