I've made it a habit when installing NetBSD on a Mac to put the NetBSD
partitions first on the disk.

It's hard to decide from the above map whether it's the Booter which cannot
see beyond the 2 GB HFS partition, or the Booter which cannot distinguish
between the 'A/UX Root' type partitions 3, 4 and 7. You might try a cleaner
setup.
