It can be done. You install NetBSD in your reserved partition (e.g. /dev/sd0d
if that were it's located according to your disklabel).

The only snag here is the /usr filesystem. 40MB is too small for the
entire binary distribution. If you planned to locate /usr/* on your 800MB
partition, you'll have to fiddle with the installation script a bit, as
it's not prepared for this situation.

If you have the option, it's easiest to just to enlarge the NetBSD partition
(120MB should be adequate) and install everything in there.
