If you're getting a SCSIRead(), #5 error then the netbsd/mac68k 
<http://www.netbsd.org/Ports/mac68k/faq/faq-4.html#ss4.12> faq explains 
why.  Basically, installer has a bug that will only allow it to install 
to the first gig of any hard disk.  This was the problem I had installing 
it onto my system.  I repartitioned the disk, so that the NetBSD 
partitions lie within the first gig, and now it works fine.
