 yes - the above explains some of what is happening.  there's
 no netbsd-gpt* because it's not loaded via efiboot, but directly
 with the rpi specific boot stuff.
 
 why this isn't working, i'm not sure about, but it seems that
 something here isn't working properly, and the above should make
 it boot from dk1 aka "netbsd-root" partition.  if i boot in qemu
 with "root=3DNAME=3Dnetbsd-root", it works for me...
 
 if i come up with some diag printfs() to help figure this out,
 can you build/run them to see?
 
 thanks.
