I have patched the Bob Nestor's patch (being sent separately
with uuencoded), cause the original mail was corrupted on
the patch part.
I have applied the patch to -current cvs tree,
( -D 20021028-UTC ) and did ./build.sh to get the release(7)
and did make under distrib/cdrom to mkisofs.
With this CDROM I did following,
(1) Use MacOS 9.2 Drive setup to partition 38G disk
32M HFS ( not HFS+)
200M A/UX Root
1000M swap
1000M A/UX Usr
35794M A/UX Free 1
(2) Boot from cdrom burned with above release(7),
with patched sysinst.
(3) Select 1. Install NetBSD on the startup screen,
and select wd1 to be installed.
(4)Everything went fine on sysinst, and I rebooted with
boot cd:,ofwboot.xcf ultra1:0/netbsd
(5) It boots fine. But pdisk only shows following parts.

Edit /dev/wd1c -
Command (? for help): P

Command (? for help):
The disk label shows following, and no HFS are here.
ttyp0:root@quick 20:44:38/021102(/home/makoto)# disklabel wd1
# /dev/rwd1c:
---------------------------------------------------------------
and disklabel wd1 shows following
( sysinst showed this organization and I said OK to that).
---------------------------------------------------------------
8 partitions:
# size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg/sgs]

Did I do something wrong ?
# To read back above mail, my real question is:
# Is 'Select 1. Install NetBSD' right ?
# The target machine is G4/800 MP
