Does your z50 have CF or ATA cards?

tell me more information about the storage media with your z50.

sysinst kernel includes miniroot file system.
so select [Exit install] and fall into single user shell modes.
few commands supported with this "learning to crowl" status.

If we wants to do more works, make more fatter
sysinst kernel with more commands.

but if you want to enjoy more about NetBSD,need to have storage 
devices.
look around your z50 sides.
     any Compact flash cards more than 15MB?
     any ATA/SCSI disks?
