Thanks -- that would explain it. No I do not necessarily have to do MULTIBOOT. I would prefer however to have an alternative to GRUB2, as discussed in the "playing with bootxx_ext2fs" and the first post in "preparing netbsd boot straps" threads.
set default=0
set timeout=5
menuentry "netbsd wd0e" {
insmod ext2
set root=(hd0,msdos1)
knetbsd /netbsd -v --root=wd0e
}
In any case, now that I have a working boot strapping model, I am trying to get the system up and running: I am following this up in the "preparing netbsd boot straps" thread.
