thanks... now it boots...
Is it possible to install netbsd on a local hard drive? Or can i only boot
the system over nfs? 
Actually I decompressed all snapshot .tgz's (base.tgz etc.tgz and so on)
and mounting these nfs "root" directory actually under /. I added an
etc/fstab file, and made the network_start and network_stop functions
doing nothing (otherwise the system stops due an "nfs send error 65").
what's the root password? *chrchr* I will replace it if i may ;)
