I was installing netbsd 1.5 on a Dell Poweredge 350 off the CDROM
from Demon News.

It would complete the installation.
I'd reboot and it would not even go into the kernel and would just
display the message: 
invalid partition table

It seemed to be fixed by rather than just using the whole disk, only
installing a a part of the disk, which seemed to force the system to
use a dos style partition table.

I don't know if anyone else has had this problem, or if it's
considered a bug, or just the way things work (or don't work).
