Following up on my recent post, I went out and bought an NEC MobilePro
780.  Install appears to proceed without problems, but first boot crashes
at the same point the IBM z50 did:

...
root file system type: msdos
warning: no /dev/console
init: not found
panic: no init
stopped at init at    0x80162e48  jr   ra
                      0x80162e4c  nop
db>

Must be something really obvious, as I can't see it.  I've tried booting
from the GENERIC kernel on the same dos partition with pbsdboot and with
the /netbsd kernel in wd0a.  Same results.  Any ideas?
