It's managed to load both the boot block and ofwboot. However,
ofwboot is unable to read in the ELF header. It's definitely
a filesystem issue. You should check that there's a /netbsd
file and it's not zero length or a symlink.

It would be good to use the in-tree compiler, otherwise all bets are off.
