where is netbsd-INSTALL.gz?
[I'm posting this to the docs list because it's an issue either of
release engineering or documentation, and there's no releng@, and
because no one answered at netbsd-users.]
netbsd-INSTALL.gz does not exist on ftp.NetBSD.org
at /pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-5.1.2/i386/binary/kernel/. The documentation
says it should be there, and there's no README or errata file indicating
if it's been removed or why.

A link to the document I'm reading:
http://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-5.1.2/i386/INSTALL.html#NetBSD/i386%20subdirectory%20structure
Here's an interesting list:
ftp> nlist /pub/NetBSD/NetBSD*/i386/binary/kernel/netbsd-INSTALL.gz
/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-4.0.1/i386/binary/kernel/netbsd-INSTALL.gz
/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-4.0/i386/binary/kernel/netbsd-INSTALL.gz
/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-6.0_BETA/i386/binary/kernel/netbsd-INSTALL.gz
/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-6.0_BETA2/i386/binary/kernel/netbsd-INSTALL.gz
It would appear the install kernel went missing for a while and has
reappeared. I don't know if that was intentional or went unnoticed,
but it's definitely undocumented.
What has everyone else been doing meanwhile?
