 To rule this out, I wiped the CF with dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/disk2
 bs=1m count=1 and recreated a mbr partition on the CF spanning the disk,
 formatted fat.
 
 I copied hpcboot, netbsd-JORNADA720.gz & miniroot.fs to the CF card &
 tried to install again.
 
 sysinst still reports no disk can be found.
 
 disklabel wd0 reports
 wd0: no disk label
 
 disklabel /dev/rwd0d works & reports a d & e partition exist.
