     It's strange, but it seems like the problem may be circumvented by 
 booting from a CD rather than from a USB memory key. I have only tried 
 various configurations on three different computers, but it seems that 
 the weird permission problem manifests itself when the system is booted 
 from an USB memory key, while booting from a CD results in a stable OS.
 
     I haven't seen the problem on i386 (and it doesn't seem like anyone 
 else has, either), so it seems to affect NetBSD/amd64 when booting off USB.
