Hum, I don't know. I've not seen this, but I don't do upgrade via sysinst
very often either.
Does fdisk show the correct values for the partitions, BIOS geometry, etc ?
Is there an active partition ?

"No Operating System" would mean that the bootcode magic number on the
NetBSD's partition is wrong. Did you try reinstalling the boot code
(installboot ....) ? Maybe from a 1.5 floppy ?
