Cool.  Glad it's working for you.

You can use the Installer, or get a copy of the hfs utility off of puma (I
can't remember the exact path at the moment), or else find a copy of the
hfsutils package and use it.  The latter 2 options work from within NetBSD
and are usually faster than using the Installer.

Take a look at Bill Studenmund's PPP kit.  The location is in the FAQ.

Also in the FAQ.  A newer version of NetBSD and Booter might make this a
little easier, btw.

I hope this helps some.

Later.
