Same here, in the meantime... experimenting with Apple / BSD partitioned MO
media and ffs/lfs partitions helped, once I got the boot-file var entry
right. Something like "/pci/pci-bridge/ADPT,2940U2B/@4:4,/netbsd" on a
German keyboard with US layout... I can probably type that blindly now.

Interesting thing is that the kernel figures out it's an lfs file-system
even though the disklabel constructed froom teh Apple partition table
claims it's of type 4.2BSD. Smart job.

I'll change that in my local copy, give it a final test run with all
file-systems involved, and commit.

Thanks for your help, and patience.  :)
