I'm one of the people working on that new user guide and, don't worry, I have
absolutely no idea what I'm doing.  My introduction to UNIX was deciding to
use NetBSD and having a Linux friend give me a hand with a few things.
Everything else, I've learned the hard way and I'm not through learning yet.

If you have some specific things that you went through to get your machine up
and running, please let me know.  If you have some specific new person
questions that you would like to see answered, let me know.

Even though I had no experience with NetBSD or UNIX, I found that the install
guide was pretty useful.  Do you think an extension of the information there
is in order?  What parts?
