  Where did you get the install CD image.  The one in
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/iso/1.6.2/sgimipscd.iso is an ISO 9660
image, which is not bootable.  I think someone made a bootable CD image
which was formatted as an SGI disk, but I don't remember the details.  It
should be in the mailing list archives somewhere.
