Okay, "ultra1" on G3 is actually PCI IDE one which should be attached
as ???ide0 at pciN.
On G4, "ultra1" is mac-io one and it's attached as wdc0 as I posted before.

I guess you also have the following lines,
as per other G3 machine info on ML archive:
(as you can see verbose messages are appreciated for remote analysis ;-)

If so, the following patch might be required for cmdide(4) based machines:

I've also put a new bootable install cd with the similar patch.
ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/misc/tsutsui/iso/macppccd-5.0.1_PATCH-OF3test-20091209.iso.gz
ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/misc/tsutsui/iso/macppc-OF3test-20091209.diff

Note this version creates only 1MB FAT12 MSDOS partition for boot.
