I have a few arm systems (orange pi zero/one, raspberry pi, banana pi) so am 
happy to test out install scripts etc.

I have put a bug report install/54996 regarding problems with partitioning 
with sysinst on arm systems - noted on NetBSD-9 on bananapi, but reproduced 
for the pr on a Raspberry pi under current. There is a typo in the bug report
256a should be 256 for the root partition.
