It is meant to be done while running RiscBSD. 

You mount a file system (e.g wd0e) via UnixFS and copy a new kernel to a
world-writable directory (e.g. tmp) just like you did. Then you boot into
RiscBSD, log in as root, copy the new kernel (should be in /var/tmp now)
as /netbsd and reboot.  

When booting RiscBSD with a bootloader kernel file and /netbsd that differ
you'll probably notice a message like

   savecore: device not found
   
This message will disappear once the bootloader kernel file and /netbsd
are the same again.
   
Another (simpler) solution would be to make /netbsd world-writable but
this would be a major security hole.
