Thanks for your insight Chavdar, and on top of what you've said I've finally found the missing bit of info I needed: http://www.netbsd.org/docs/guide/en/chap-misc.html#chap-misc-bootmanager See, I expected to find this bit well within the installation chapter. That means I'll have to re-study the guide. I'll then proceed to install from usb and we'll take it from there. I'm also reading the Freebsd install guide which is quite similar, probably a bit better structured. -- Ottavio
