>Description:
I installed NetBSD 1.6 inside vmware. I installed all base sets except those starting with "x". After that I wanted to add these sets and got the message:
It appears that wd0aca/Djibouti is not a BSD file system or the fsck was not
successful. The upgrade has been aborted. (Error number -1.)
>How-To-Repeat:
Install NetBSD from 1.6/i386cd.iso.
Install all sets except x*.
Try to install additional sets.
>Fix:
Check utils/sysinst/* for strncpy or similar.
