The installer is confused about the boot disk being partitioned with
MBR (as required on this platform) on a port (mips) where we do not
usually wrap disklabel-inside-MBR (like x86, where the 'c' partition
is used for the MBR NetBSD partition of the disk and 'd' is the raw/whole
disk partition).

We have similar issues on arm platforms, but special code to deal with it
there.

I'll have a look (don't have an easily testable mipsn64 setup right now,
so will take a bit).
