 The iso from
 https://nycdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/HEAD/20260623165324Z/images/NetBSD-11.99.6-evbarm-aarch64.iso
 was used.
 
 I also tried later with the 11.0_RC5 iso, and the same thing happened
 i.e. https scheme => invalid scheme, http => just hangs, ftp scheme => just
 works
 
 Networking was set up in the VM, autoselect.
 
 I think the certctl line completed successfully after unpacking the sets,
 but it was really difficult to tell, it happened very quickly.
