I managed to boot a NetBSD rescue floppy (from a recent snapshot)
on my PC.
This recognized my controller and disk well. BUT:
When running "disklabel sd0" it showed only the d partition, and said
something about finding 4 (!!!) partitions.
The latter sounds good, but I was unable to access these partitions
with a mount
Where have all the partitions gone?
