I second this move.  It seems more appropriate for the NetBSD
``spirit'' to have a single, uniform installation procedure if
possible.

Then, I think it's possible to retrieve files from HFS partition by
substituting hfs or hfsutils for ftp (in order to do installation from 
HFS as an extension of local drive installation, we'd have to have
kernel hfs support, but doing it as an extension of ftp installation
would only require replacement of appropriate client program).
