! 57: This menu-driven tool is designed to help you install NetBSD to a hard disk,
! 58: or upgrade an existing NetBSD system, with a minimum of work.
! 59: In the following menus type the reference letter (a, b, c, ...) to select an
! 60: item, or type CTRL+N/CTRL+P to select the next/previous item.
! 61: The arrow keys and Page-up/Page-down may also work.
! 62: Activate the current selection from the menu by typing the enter key.
! 63:
! 64: If you booted from a floppy, you may now remove the disk.
! 65: Thank you for using NetBSD!

! 147:
! 148: If you select 'Use the entire disk' then the previous contents of the disk
! 149: will be overwritten and a single MBR partition used to cover the entire disk.
! 150: If you want to install more than one operating system then edit the MBR
! 151: partition table and create a partition for NetBSD.
! 152:
! 153: A few hundred MB is enough for a basic installation, but you should allow
