I've made a CD from NetBSD 4.0_RC3/i386 and the binary packages that 
Manuel built (and is probably still uploading ;-). It is bootable, has all 
the i386 install sets, plus a selection of "essential"[1] binary packages.

More Information:
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/misc/hubertf/netbsd-4.0RC3-i386pkg.README
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/misc/hubertf/netbsd-4.0RC3-i386pkg.iso
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/misc/hubertf/netbsd-4.0RC3-i386pkg.md5

Enjoy!

The underlying definition of "essential" here is that for setting up a PC 
with NetBSD for basic desktop operation, plus some toys. :-)
