Do you have a /dev/console device entry?
No, in the installation CD ($NETBSD_FTP_SERVER/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-6.0.1/iso/NetBSD-6.0.1-i386.iso) the folder /dev has only one file, MAKEDEV. It seems that this script isn't run when needed. But as this is at the booting stage, I have no power to do any changes. Is it possible to activate MAKEDEV via GRUB2 anyhow?
