I am running into problems installing NetBsD.

I think one of the problems is that I have a 1Gig second hard drive which 
runs a disk manager which will not allow boot loaders get loaded into the 
MBR.  It asks if it is possible for the boot loader to be put into another 
partition.

I had the NetBSD partition on the second drive.  Should I try creating one 
on the first drive?

Question.  After partitioning a drive and setting up a boot loader to give a 
menu between two partitions, should the menu come up even if I don't have 
anything bootable on one of the partitions?  I was using os-bs.
