What Adam omitted to say is that you need to create the disk1.img and
disk2.img files for qemu to use.  They do not need to be large and
they can be just a file of zeros so doing:

dd if=/dev/zero of=disk1.img count=40k
dd if=/dev/zero of=disk2.img count=40k

in the same directory you put the netbsd.img file will work fine -
this will give you a pair of 20Mb "disks" to stripe together.
