NetBSDs installer generally just works.  with a few exceptions.  one of the
things that it can't do (and that's being worked on now) is that it has no
support for installing to more than one disk.  this is a small problem when
you are trying to install NetBSD on a pmax box with 4x200MB disks.  needless
to say, i've become very familiar with the process of installing NetBSD without
the sysinst program.  of course i usually manage to muck it up the first two
times around, but eventually i get it right. :)
