>How-To-Repeat:
Install on amd64 from NetBSD-11.0_RC2-amd64.iso using legacy BIOS (I did not try UEFI). Use GPT partition, install from CD/DVD device, default partitioning, select all sets.

Subject: PR/60133 CVS commit: src/usr.sbin/sysinst
Date: Sun, 21 Jun 2026 12:56:36 +0000

 Module Name:	src
 Committed By:	martin
 Date:		Sun Jun 21 12:56:35 UTC 2026

 Modified Files:
 	src/usr.sbin/sysinst: msg.mi.de msg.mi.en msg.mi.es msg.mi.fr msg.mi.pl
 	    util.c

 Log Message:
 Hack for PR 60224 or PR 60133:
 add a specific message when a compat (base32 or base64) set
 or a debug (or compat debug) set is not found.
 Point at the CD vs. DVD images.

 Still not an ideal UI, but reworking this properly is not going
 to happen before 11.0, and this is intended as a stopgap fix that
 should be pulled up.

 Log Message:
 Conditionalize some messages so they are not compiled in when
 architectures do not need it.
  - a few clearly GPT related strings conditional on NO_GPT
  - the base32/compat32 related message for PR 60224 and PR 60133
    conditional on a new flag HAVE_DVD_IMAGE
