To answer my own dumb question, it helps to use the installation floppy,
not the boot floppy.

Anyway, I got NetBSD-1.4 installed on my system.  However I can't get it
to boot from the hard drive.  When the OF console comes up, I type boot
scsi/sd@6:0 and press return.  It acts like its going to boot, but gets
stuck fairly quickly.  The NetBSD Openfirmware Booter message comes up
spits out a few numbers (addresses?) prints "starting:  0x100000" and
then hangs indefinitely.  Any ideas?  The hard drive in question is a 3
Gig Quantum Fireball on scsi id 6. Thanks,
