Hello, World!

  I tried to install NetBSD 0.9 - it succeeded, but the disklabel
deleted my previouis DOS=Linux partition.
With a partition editor I restored the loss data - but I was not very successful.
I merked: NetBSD will bel always installed at the 4. partition. Is it
true?
Where begins the disk sector numbering? From 1 or from 0?
Rewrites the disklabel always the bootsector?
Is this problem solved in NetBSD-current? Or I made a mistake?
