I think it is the sysinst MBR editing menu - so the letters on the LHS are
for menu selection and not partition letters.

(Also the netbsd root filesystem need not be partition 'a'.
It must, however, start at the beginning of the bootable MBR partition.)

The netbsd-current kernel will generate a default netbsd disklabel
that contains all the extended partitions (wd0i and upwards), this
may (aka should) be preserved by sysinst.
However if there is an old netbsd label the information on it will
be preserved, and the MBR partition information discarded.
(This might be sub-optiomal)
