I still am going nowhere with my NetBSD install. All HD parameters
appear fine. This is what happens now:

root device (default sd3a): sd3b
dump device (default sd3b): none
file system (default generic):
root on sd3b
root file system type: ffs
First bad
/: bad dir ino 4 at offset 0: mangled entry
panic: bad dir
stopped at 0xf2a0c:   unlk  a6

This is after entering the swap partition as the root device. All HD
parameters appear fine. Is there a problem with the minroot
filesystem?

Thanks,
Ola
