I found the book described below to be very helpful when I started
with NetBSD.  It won't help you with installation, but I found it very
useful for other stuff (setting up /etc/printcap, &c.).  I cut the
description from "A Concise Guide to UNIX Books", a FAQL written by
sko@helix.net (Samuel Ko):

----------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Title: Unix System Administration Handbook
   Authors: Evi Nemeth, Garth Snyder and Scott Seebass
   Publisher: Prentice-Hall
   Edition: 1989
   ISBN: 0-13-933441-6
   Comment: **** Highly Recommended ****
            Classic, also known as the sys-admin Bible ...
            " an attempt to condense everything that a system administrator
              should know about UNIX into a single, easy-to-use volume "
            Source codes for programs listed (sa-book.tar.Z) can be
            obtained by anonymous ftp from boulder.colorado.edu (in
            /pub/sa-book) or oak.oakland.edu (in /pub/unix-c/sysadmin).
