 Sorry, but it was already late and I had shut down all my laptops and desktop. There's no option in mobile/tablet apps to disable HTML. Maybe, if anybody has enough time, it's a good excuse to leave gnats and move to something better.
 
 BTW, looking at this: https://nxr.netbsd.org/xref/src/distrib/amd64/liveimage/usbimage/Makefile#5 and confirming from the size of the image, it seems that ${IMAGESECTORS} must be 3145728 (1536*1024*1024/512 taken from https://nxr.netbsd.org/xref/src/distrib/common/bootimage/Makefile.bootimage#163 ), and that should be the partition d: in https://nxr.netbsd.org/xref/src/distrib/common/bootimage/diskproto.noswap.mbr.in#24 ). According to freebsd, it is 2867200, which should be wrong. So, any ideas on how this happened? Can anybody build an install-image, write it to a flash drive and double check the disklabel? I did not change any values, everything was set to default.
