Yeah, but it wasn't doing anything after that.
 
I got it to work, finally, though I'm not too sure what I did.
 
I ended up linking the mac-address file to the plain old netbsd kernel
rather than the ramdisk kernel. Then, it just started working. 
I don't know what I did other than that. 

Next, I'm going to try to make sure I don't have any extraneous 
stuff in my config files. I'm using dhcp, but I also have bootpd
enabled in /etc/inetd.conf on the bootserver/gateway. I shouldn't 
need both.
