Subject: NETbsd/Mac Installer: error mounting root?

Howdy,

I formatted and configured a NetBSD partition with MKfs according to 
the howto from Erik Winkler on 
http://users.erols.com/ewinkler/installguide/installguide.html
I also configured a disk without any Macintosh HFS partitions.

However, in both testcases the NetBSD/Mac68k Installer (1.1h) refuses 
to find the root partition. It stops with an "Error mounting root." 
error, see below.

1) Does anyone know this problem and knows a solution?
2) Where can i find the source of the NetBSD/Mac68k Installer, so I 
can look up what the error 22 means.

I searched on the NetBSD sites but could not find the source of this 
Mac program.


Regards,


Axel
