Hi,

maybe you can provide more information.

is that from netbsd-10 sources? Did you change the GENERIC
configuration?

wd0c wouldn't be a standard installation. Usually you write a disklabel
that uses wd0a as the root partition.

error 6 could mean that the wd0 disk doesn't exist or that partition
wd0c doesn't contain a valid filesystem or that you have a stripped
kernel that lacks the filesystem code.

What DKWEDGE options did you set?

Then you could show your disk layout as seen by the bundled kernel,
also what that kernel prints for 'boot device' and 'root on' and
what filesystem you used.
