with any luck, it's in the INSTALL document.  i don't know if it made it
in there for 1.5 or not.  sysinst is the machine-independent installation
tool that is used by most netbsd ports, tho.  it's menu-driven and fairly
straight-forward to use.  it runs off of a ramdisk that is built into an
installation kernel.  it's pretty nifty on the whole.
