So there are 2 problems: 1) fix loader code, 2) fix disklabel. I will try
2) - need more info on what's wrong for 1)

All the "Device not configured" messages are just because you only have
one disk, ie., wd0, so wd1a etc. are not configured. Plus wd0f,g,h
aren't as they don't appear in your disklabel.

wd0b and wd0e are busy because wd0b is in use by swap, and wd0e is /usr.
I'm surprised you didn't have the same message for wd0a. (cut'n paste?)

wd0c is "the whole disk" ie., it should have size 19640880, offset 0, so
you ought to move your size 3401937, offset 63, partition to say f.

You don't have a message about wd0d. As you run windows, this must be
NetBSD/i386 which uses wd0d as "the whole of NetBSD", ie., it should
have size 7061040, offset 8406720 (as per your fdisk output), so this
means moving your size 5004720, offset 3402000 partition to say g.

Good luck,
