I recently bought a toshiba pcmia format 2 gigabyte disk with the
intention of putting netbsd on my z50. I'm trying to figure out the best
way to do it. Right now I'm thinking of putting the card in a laptop
running linux and using parted to put three partitions on the disk: one
fat32 partition for the boot file, one ext2 partition for the tar files,
and one ext2 partition to install netbsd on. Would this work? Could the
netbsd kernel install from an ext2 partition? Or is there a better way
to do it?
Sorry for the newbie question.
