What did I do wrong?

Hello,

I have wanted to get NetBSD running on my Jornada 720 since almost 6 months ago! I was so glad to find you site, since it seemed so easy. As your email address is at NetBSD.org, I assume you are somewhat official. Anyways, I tried to format the CF card from Linux. Is that wrong? I made the DOS partition a FAT16 one. Are they the same thing? And also, when you said to leave the rest for NetBSD, did you mean to format the rest of the drive in a NetBSD filesystem? I'm not sure how long ago your article was written, but I believe a new NetBSD is now out. Would that be fixed if I installed from the network? I currently get up to the .exe bootloader but cannot boot. I really wanted to try NetBSD as an alternative to Linux on my Jornada 720. Do I have to have NetBSD already installed on another computer to make this work? Are there any NetBSD LiveCD';s? Thanks a lot!
