I'm still trying to figure out what the gripe is regarding NetBSD's installation
procedures.  I found that the installation of NetBSD went much smoother than
my initial installation of 386bsd.  There was one area that was kind of 
confusing--the section where the kernel is copied--but other than that, the
installation procedure was far superior to that of 386BSD.
