 The command being run is correct and it works if you have network connectivity
 and a working name server.

 I assume the networking previously worked for retrieving the NetBSD 
 sets.

 If you suspend from sysinst, does /targetroot/etc/resolv.conf  exist?

 This problem is not sparc-specific; it happens when attempting to
 install the amd64 version of 6.1.2.

 To answer Jeremy C. Reed's question: yes, I was able to install a set
 (syssrc) via the network. After this error (unable to do the pkg_add
 of pkgin as reported by the orignal poster), I exited from the install
 system, got to a shell and was able to ping ftp.netbsd.org.

 Recently I've got back to NetBSD research and got the same problem at 6.1.5-
 i386 install.

 # ls /targetroot
 prints nothing, it's an empty folder.
