Maybe Hubert could expand on his thinking, but I extrapolated it into
something like:
/netbsd/NETBSD <-- kernel file. Static name.
/netbsd/modules/xyz
/netbsd/others/CONFIG
/netbsd/others/other_stuff_easily_mapped_in_/kern
So the you could tell the bootloader to look for:
/onetbsd/NETBSD
/onetbsd/modules/xyz
...
Whereas in my head, I constructed:
/netbsd/kernel
/netbsd/modules/...
/onetbsd/kernel
/onetbsd/modules/...
boot /netbsd
boot /onetbsd
If the bootloader finds a file, it boots the file. If it finds a
directory, it boots the file named 'kernel' in the directory.
