You have to create "SMALL" UFS partition for ofwboot.
See http://www.netbsd.org/guide/en/chap-rf.html.
I'm using NetBSD 2.0RC1 on ULTRA30. RAID-1 as /. =
It seems that it is necessary to make it be the
same as NetBSD 1.6.x's example with sparc64 system.
My system's Disk label is
....

sectors/track: 509
tracks/cylinder: 4
sectors/cylinder: 2036
cylinders: 17457
total sectors: 35566480

partition a: RAID-1 volume for /

and
partition e: UFS partition for ofwboot
