No, why should I?

I never finished the installation I started a week ago. During this
week, I got my CyberStorm MKII 060 back and everything was different
again! I didn't require the "-Z" option (load kernel to ChipRAM) to
start NetBSD 1.3 (in fact, I never understood why I was supposed to
use that one), the installation now hung after the nfs setup, ...

That's exactly what I did!

It stops after the nfs installation with the error message mentioned
below:

----- cut here -----
exec: mount_ffs /dev/sd0a /mnt
mount_ffs: /dev/sd0a on /mnt: Device busy

FATAL ERROR:  Cannot mount filesystems. Double-check your
configuration and restart the installation process.
----- cut here -----

What is this about?
How can I avoid it and continue the installation?

TIA
