i had to do this with NetBSD/i386 several years back on a 486 server i setup.
i forget where i mounted stuff, but use disklabel, look through the install
scripts to determine mount points (i'm almost 100% sure it's /mnt) and the
worst thing that will happen once you resume installation is that it will
complain about /device/blah is already mounted, but won't fail. just to be
safe, right before you reboot grok /mnt/etc/fstab and make sure it's kosher.
that should get you up and running. i think. :)
