OK...

So would I be right in thinking that:

/usr/src/build.sh -d -m arm26 -D /export0

will build NetBSD/arm26 and install it in /export0?

(Do I need -O /usr/obj or something as well, or will it use obj dirs in a
default location?)

Is there a separate step to build a kernel?

OK. Does the arm26 bootloader use bootparamd and tftp, or does it already
manage to load a kernel and thus only need NFS to be set up?
