Well - that works! Thanks!

Although, I seem to have missed a step.

the sysinst app can not find media to install on! :)

Do I need to purchase a disk/hd for the z50 in order to run netbsd on it? 

I had thought to use the storage media included with the z50 or have I glossed over
some sort of requirement?
