summarize sysinst or installation differences between ports -- and emulators to try?

["Jeremy C. Reed" <reed%reedmedia.net@localhost>]

I'd like to try installing non-i386 and non-amd64 NetBSD. Can you please 
suggest some emulators that I can run on NetBSD/i386 or NetBSD/amd64 so I 
can try?

I have installed NetBSD on i386 hundreds of times. And on amd64 maybe 10 
to 20 times. I don't have much familarity with installing NetBSD on other 
ports.

Also is there a single short document or webpage that lists the 
significant differences between installing on NetBSD's many ports?

(I know many of the port specific pages have FAQs and there are per-port 
documentation, but I was hoping to find one location.)

If not, can you all share with me some of the significant port specific 
install differences? For example: Like do some ports not use sysinst? And 
do some sysinst not include the MBR editor? (RTSL^HJ ...)

Why I am asking: I have captured around 45 screenshots of installation 
(for i386) as I am writing a chapter about installing NetBSD. I don't plan 
to document every detail in installing on non-i386 but hope to be able to 
summarize some of the differences, what someone would notice, or things to 
watch out for on non-i386.

(And if you know of any pkgsrc/emulators to try or if you can provide any 
installation screenshots on non-i386, please let me know.)

Thank you
