Or
(3-1) try using CD-ROM first,
boot cd:,ofwboot.xcf hd:4/netbsd
Then get hfsutils installed, find the partition # with
disklabel (as wd0x) and
hformat /dev/wd0x
hmount /dev/wd0x
hcopy ofwboot.xcf :
> 2: Apple_HFS Apple_HFS_Boot 112640 @ 64 ( 55.0M)
> 3: Apple_Boot eXternal booter 17408 @ 112704 ( 8.5M)
> 6: Apple_Boot eXternal booter 17408 @ 5355584 ( 8.5M)

Edit /dev/wd0c -
