That's what I thought--and that's why I think I must be doing
something wrong.  The instructions most applicable to my situation are
these:

http://wiki.prgmr.com/mediawiki/index.php/NetBSD_as_a_DomU

Do note that I have no /dev/xvda as is mentioned there.  This system
is setup without any partition table, just an ext3 filesystem.  By
partition, did you mean slice in a disklabel or actual partition a la
fdisk?

I'm about to give it another go, so if there's anything you'd like to
see, I'll try to get it for you.

Thanks,
