You are right and I don't understand why we build these files - I had expected
netbsd-SHEEVAPLUG_INSTALL.gz to actually be netbsd-SHEEVAPLUG_INSTALL.ub.gz,
so you could decompress it and put it into the FAT partition.

This probably comes from some very generic make file code that builds all
"package" variants of all available kernels, but has no knowledge of which
of them would be actually usefull.

And it is missing the only variant (.ub) that would be usefull here :-(

I'll bring this up on port-arm@ and will contact you off-list for a quick
hack to try...
