OK, modified to

     Note   Currently NetBSD 1.4.2_ALPHA requires a dedicated drive if it is
            going to be run from a local disk drive.  In other words, NetBSD
            1.4.2_ALPHA cannot be installed on the hard drive on which MacOS
            and/or any other oparating systems reside.  This is because the
            NetBSD 1.4.2_ALPHA install tools currently do not support Apple's
            Disk Partition Map.
