Doesn't work in the two browsers I use. I guess what you mean is that
it works in any GUI browser where javascript is enabled. At least it
still works without javascript (although there are a lot of "[INLINE]"
lines in lynx.) Let's be careful that we don't rely on anything like
this. The NetBSD page is extremely lynx friendly. Let's not lose that.

Hmm. If we go to a multiple disk install, could we include lynx so that
we can jump to the web page (once we had networking enabled) for detailed
help during setup?
