FWIW, I'm also new to NetBSD (and, coincidentally enough, also installed it on an old laptop). It definitely seems

To make sure I'm following here: post-install, you boot the machine (normally), but then instead of getting to a login prompt, you get a 'db>' prompt? If that's all correct, do you see any error message at all?
