 fixes the mac68k sysinst for me. Basically, the mac68k 
 md_make_bsd_partitions() function, which replaces the MI 
 make_bsd_partitions() because the mac68k port does not have an 
 on-disk BSD disklabel, neglected to sign up BSD partitions for 
 newfs'ing and mounting by setting the appropriate flags.
 
 
 Please request pull-ups to the netbsd-4, netbsd-3, netbsd-3-1 
 (urgent!), netbsd-2 and netbsd-2-1 branches, and also back out the
