Use the source, Luke:
/usr/src/sys/arch/amiga/stand/bootblock/boot/main.c:
char default_command[] = "netbsd -AS";
You can patch this. I am not sure if there is place for a "-I xx", but
be careful, space is very precious. Do generate a bootblock not a single
byte larger than the original, otherwise it wont fit in the required
track: 8192 bytes
To install the bootblock:
cd /usr/mdec/
./installboot your_boot_block
