Yes.  Boot disk:\netbsd instead of disk:\boot, or hard-link (not symlink)
/netbsd to /boot.  HOWEVER, the Shark cannot yet auto-detect the root
partition on wd0a, hence the "config netbsd root on wd0a" line and the
resultant netbsd_wdboot kernel.

No.  The Shark boots the NetBSD kernel directly.  `It was designed to do
so.'  8-)
