I would guess this is a known issue -- the bootstrap code was not
installed on your hard disk:
	http://www.netbsd.org/cgi-bin/query-pr-single.pl?number=28724

To work-a-round, I would boot of the CDROM and get to shell prompt to
run (I assume) "disklabel -B sd0".  You might have to mount your SCSI
disk to get the /usr/mdec file that is required.
