 It looks still something wrong.

 You can now change the sizes for the system partitions.  The default is to allocate all the
 space to the root file system.  However, you may wish to have separate /usr (additional 
 system files), /var (log files etc) or /home (users' home directories) file systems.
 
 Free space will be added to the partition marked with a '+'.

 No NetBSD partition appears on default choices.
 
 If I explicitly specify swap partition in the
 "change the sizes for the system partitions" menu,
 a NetBSD partition appears, but it fails because the
 "unused" partition is defined as a: by default?

 No idea what's going on the disklabel editor internals.
