    Sorry, I do not know about the size limits for NetBSD 1.6.2. But
    the core dumps in the install process are "random". Sometimes it
    core dumps, sometimes not. Obviously, if it crashes in the same
    step it looks like a hardware related problem. You can try setting
    up a NetBSD partition not too big, until 2.0 is here.

    UFSv2 supports much larger partitions, I really hope there will not
    be other issues limiting the size of the NetBSD partition in 2.0!

    Cheers,
    Igor.
