I have done everything that I can think of concerning and have 
covered every possible variable concerning partitioning and installation. 
Then why:

1) the active partition data shows up in the LAST entry instead of the first?

2) I am given some 1023 cyl 255 hd 63 sec nonsense instead of 902/8/46 as 
the CMOS and boot interrogation agree.

3) every time I let the kcoth11 floppy proceed without the installer 
disk in hopes of reaching copy_kernel, it gives me fd0 timeouts and a reboot?

4) Would the NetBSD community PANIC by allowing someone to do the
straightforward and VERY politically incorrect: 

# mount -w /dev/wd0a /mnt2
# cp /netbsd /mnt2  (from a proposed third floppy or fifth .fs file 
called 'kerndisk-a' or 'kerdisk-o')
 
I would consider this a BUG!
