I don't know, I never tried. (I could theoretically only try Linux
anyway, since I have none of the others)

As far as I am aware, the partition-d hack is rather dependent on the
fdisk-style partitioning anyway. It works only if there is only one "the
netbsd part of the disk". The Amiga port, for instance, does not have a
special d partition and (at least when I used it for a while) NetBSD's
partitions are each partitions in the native Amiga partitioning scheme.
(I am not really suggesting that NetBSD/i386 also do this, because fdisk
partitioning is rather inferior to Amiga's RigidDiskBlock partitioning
scheme).
