>Description:
        When multiple disks are found, the following screen is presented:

       --
        On which disk do you want to install NetBSD?

          Available disks
          a: wd0
          b: wd1
       --

        The menu item text should be extended to show locators and device
        identifiers, something like:

       --
          Available disks
          a: wd0 (977 MB, SanDisk SDCFB-1024, viaide0:0:0)
          b: wd1 (232 GB, FUJITSU MHY2250BH, viaide0:0:1)
       --
