>Description:
Attempting to change the bsize/fsize of a partition causes a coredump.
This seems to happen in any permuation of getting to the sysinst partition
editor that I've found.
>How-To-Repeat:
boot sysinst install floppies (or run sysinst from a -current system).
"install netbsd"
"use entire disk"
"standard" partitioning
change bsize/fsize of part a (or any other partition)
kaboom!
