   I tried installing Windows NT on a disk containing NetBSD and DOS and it
   messed up my NetBSD partition.  I tried with and without OS-BS (a boot
   selector).  Does anyone have any hints on how to run this combination
   (NetBSD/DOS/NT)?

NT is probably the main problem not BSD. there are problems with the NT
loader coexisting with anything but DOS (especially loses with OS/2 =\ )
the NT group was discussing this but i dont follow any more, now that
i have a state of th art os like NetBSD
