That _is_ your problem. On my system, I thought I was doing fine by
putting in:
boot ata/ATA-Disk@0:0
but this also had to be in boot-device. So, to make it boot for me, I did:
setenv boot-device ata/ATA-Disk@0:0
boot
And that worked for me. (I think; I'm currently trying to install
NetBSD/macppc on the computer where it used to be).
