Subject: Help!  How do I extract etc(0.1) dist under NetBSD?

I have recently installed NetBSD (*FANTASTIC JOB BTW*) and I was 
not able to extract the etc distribution under 0.1 during the netBSD
install procedure.  When I went through the whole process again in
fact- the installation procedure deleted /etc/distrib where I had left
the files.  So my question....

With a fully functioning NetBSD system, how can I copy the etc
distribution onto the hard-disk from floppies and extract it?
(I installed the entire NetBSD tree, including sources...)

Thanks!
