That's because it's not /netbsd. savecore looks in /netbsd to help it
know where to grovel for a core file. When I'm debugging things, I often get
this error.
I typically keep a number of kernels around, and link (either hard or
soft) netbsd to the current one.

add the option UCONSOLE to your kernel config.
