Then I misunderstood you. I thought you meant amiga partition table in
your last mail.

Ok, I see the problem. You have MBR partitions and ofwboot must find
a NetBSD partition among them to read a disklabel. It cannot work.

I will see if it makes sense to create a fake disklabel out of FAT
partitions, when there is no NetBSD disklabel found. Maybe that is
also a useful enhancement of ofwboot for others.

Otherwise the only option for the Pegasos1 would be CD-booting.
