NetBSD 0.8 booted

NetBSD 0.8 was released on the 19th of April 1993. This was the first public version of NetBSD.

0.8 compiles more with pieces from 386 BSD 0.1 pl22 under 386 BSD. However because I had to copy numerous files from 386 BSD it's not quite a 'legit' version of NetBSD 0.8, but it is enough to provide a booting kernel.
