Hi,

Sorry for the long delay.

It's something like:

For one partition:

newfs /dev/rsd0a
mount /dev/sd0a /mnt
cat > /mnt/etc/fstab
/dev/sd0a / ffs rw 1 1
/dev/sd0b none swap sw 0 0
^D

umount /mnt

and then redo the install and everthing seems (pretty much) to work ok. 
I have no idea if it works to have more than one partition, all my disks 
are small enough (NetBSD current on a 160meg disk :-) that I only
use one paritition.

cheers

bruce
