If I have a separate disk to devote to MacBSD, I just use the system 
installer in the boot image provided, which looks the same everywhere 
formats the disk with the newer version of ffs... and extracting the 
.tar.gz under netbsd itself is FASTER and works also on larger disks.
Unfortunately it works only with MORE than 8 MB of ram (I don't know the 
minimum, but pax will fail with 8 and works with 20...) DOing a trick 
and making a swapon though is enough.
