I recently bought a toshiba pcmia format 2 gigabyte disk with the 
intention of putting netbsd on my z50. I'm trying to figure out the best 
way to do it. Right now I'm thinking of putting the card in a laptop 
running linux and using parted to put three partitions on the disk: one 
fat32 partition for the boot file, one ext2 partition for the tar files, 
and one ext2 partition to install netbsd on. Would this work? Could the 
netbsd kernel install from an ext2 partition? Or is there a better way 
to do it?

Sorry for the newbie question.
