I did things backward learning. I installed FreeBSD and became comfortable
with it. Then I got an Alpha and loaded OpenBSD on it. Then I loaded
NetBSD on it. That was The Right Way to learn those installers. By the
time you get to NetBSD, you're almost ready to skip the installer itself
and just do it by hand.
