>Description:
I installed 6.0 beta on a rather generic i386 machine:

p4m800pro-m v2.0 by ECS

http://www.ecsusa.com/ECSWebSite/Product/Product_Detail.aspx?DetailID=673&CategoryID=1&DetailName=Feature&MenuID=16&LanID=9

and the install went OK, but it would not successfully boot from hard disk, 
halting after:

NetBSD MBR boot
NetBSD/x86 ffsv2 Primary Bootstrap
[silence]

The install complained once that the disk geometry could not be uniquely 
matched:
Bios: 1024/16/63
Prob: 1023/255/63

I tried both the auto and manually entering the c/h/s.

I used the entire disk so no added confusion there.  The dmesg is at the 
bottom, after other comments.

It did install and boot correctly on this machine with version 5.1, although on 
one install strange things happened such as creating the main partition past 
the end of the disk.

How can I help debug this?  It has an AMI bios version 2.59 (latest from 
manufacturer), Maxtor 40gb hard disk, etc.

----------

On a side note, I did install the beta on my dell poweredge 1850, and it seemed 
to work, although the long standing problem with the power control has not 
improved.  Still needs to boot w/o the ACPI. (-1 or -2 on the command line).

----------

I also tried installing 6.0 beta on sun ultra 10 (sparc64) and it seemed to 
work including 4k disk sectors:
