9.0_STABLE boot for installation

[Makoto Fujiwara <makoto%ki.nu@localhost>]

I have PC of the mother board is this
  https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/GA-N3150N-D3V-rev-10#ov

1. Install 9.0 Release: works fine,
  http://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-9.0/images/
   NetBSD-9.0-amd64-install.img.gz		14-Feb-2020 09:27	821845kB
   NetBSD-9.0-amd64-install.img.gz.torrent	15-Feb-2020 07:30	63kB
   NetBSD-9.0-amd64-uefi-install.img.gz		14-Feb-2020 09:31	822150kB
   NetBSD-9.0-amd64-uefi-install.img.gz.torrent	15-Feb-2020 07:30	63kB
   NetBSD-9.0-amd64.iso				14-Feb-2020 09:24	476868k

 Out of above, I'm using following one.
    NetBSD-9.0-amd64-install.img.gz		14-Feb-2020 09:27	821845kB

 Dowload it, and write it to USB memory:
    zcat NetBSD-9.0-amd64-install.img.gz | sudo dd of=/dev/sd0e bs=64k

2. Yesterday,
  Download from
   http://nycdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/netbsd-9/202007161930Z/

  We only have two,
   NetBSD-9.0_STABLE-amd64-install.img.gz   16-Jul-2020 22:20         822610kB
   NetBSD-9.0_STABLE-amd64.iso		    16-Jul-2020 22:17         476826kB

  And similar thing, I did two cases:

    zcat NetBSD-9.0-amd64-install.img.gz | sudo dd of=/dev/sd0e bs=64k
  OR:
    cat  NetBSD-9.0_STABLE-amd64.iso     | sudo dd of=/dev/sd0e bs=2k


Then I've got:        ... similar of above two cases:
(after typing 'consdev com0')

 sudo cu -l /dev/dtyU0 -s 9600

 I have hard disk installed 9.0, so I put
 netbsd-INSTALL.gz which was found in install USB memory,
   cp
 /netbsd-INSTALL.gz as it is (not unzip) to /
   and 

> consdev com0
> boot netbsd-INSTALL.gz
then I got following at disk selection

 On which disk do you want to upgrade NetBSD?

                  └────────────────────┘
-----------------------------------------------
help at boot prompt says we have ls, but ls does not work (?)

I don't think the item 3 shown above may not be so sigificant
other than STABLE kernel itself works if it is properly found
and loaded.

4. In boot menu (of the mother board BIOS setting), if USB
memory is inserted, the two selection are shown,
Normal
  and
UEFI (I'm not sure ), but not checked in detail yet,

Thanks for reading
