sysinst contains code to edit the mbr partition table.
NetBSD will split a single mbr partition into multiple
NetBSD partitions
for different filesystems, so you only (usually) need a
single mbr partition.

For a 4GB disk just rung through sysinst, saying you'll use
the entire
disk for NetBSD, and (probably) just have a root '/'
filesystem and the
swap/dump area as offered.
