No, I think it means you should update disk drivers manually and then 
hunt for the option in the MacOS upgrade that will make it skip that 
step if you have a NetBSD-disklabel'ed disk.

Wait a minute.  I was assuming that you had a NetBSD disk which was 
separate from the MacOS one.  You somehow have a MacOS partition on a 
NetBSD-disklabel'ed disk?  How'd you do that?
