I posted a the "how do I boot after install" message and the most helpful 
reply (from Gabriel Rosenkoetter) was to refer to a rather opaque section 
of the FAQ:

>http://www.netbsd.org/Ports/macppc/faq.html#boot-disk

Okay, so now I'm trying to follow this section without much success. I 
booted from the install floppy and selected the S)hell option. Then I 
mounted /dev/sd0a on /mnt and entered the two commands the FAQ refers to 
as they are:

>So if you have booted off floppy or network, and have the filesystem (say 
>it's sd0) mounted on /mnt, you would do: 
>
>
>	cp /usr/mdec/ofwboot /mnt/boot
>	/usr/mdec/installboot /mnt/boot /usr/mdec/bootxx /dev/rsd0a

Now that is the end of that bullet-point in the FAQ. Do I need to 
continue on to the next one or am I done? I thought okay, maybe I'm done. 
I then attempted to exit the shell unsuccessfully and after rebooting it 
still doesn't boot from the hard drive, so I rebooted from the install 
floppy (again) and when I tried the same mount command, it complains the 
file system on /dev/sd0a is not clean. (Argh!)

So now I'm trying 'fsck -y /dev/sd0a' and fsck refuses to work without 
fstab and I don't know what parameter to pass fsck to ignore fstab... 
That's my new problem. If need be I can erase this mess and reinstall but 
the question still stands, are there step-by-step instructions a new user 
can follow to get past this point? My OF is 1.1 according to its splash 
screen.

Cheers...
