Today I've tried to install NetBSD/landisk to
the I-O DATA "Lan Tank" (SOTO-HDLWU) NAS box:
http://supertank.iodata.jp/products/sotohdlwu/ (in Japanese)
and it works fine.

There are some more tweaks:
- my Seagate ST380021A ATA disk is not recognized by the firmware ;-(
- maybe we have to install mbr bootloader by
  dd if=/landisk-DESTDIR/usr/mdec/mbr of=/dev/rwdXd bs=512 count=1
  or so
- as usual we have to preserve first 63 sectors for fdisk
- fdisk partition should be marked active by "fdisk -a wdX"
- we have to copy /usr/mdec/boot into root filesystem before installboot
- we also have to create device nodes by
  "mount /dev/wdXa /mnt; cd /mnt/dev; sh MAKEDEV all" etc.
