Hmm... did the particular wireless chip change on recent models? On the
gdium here it attaches as:
ral0 at pci0 dev 13 function 0 "Ralink RT2561S" rev 0x00: irq 6, address
00:0e:8e:1f:03:3a
ral0: MAC/BBP RT2561C, RF RT2527
...and I can connect to the neighbour's access point with a simple
``dhclient ral0''.

No, `boot' is the same for all supported loongson systems. But if you
copy it to the root of the ext2fs partition, you can't create a
directory of the same name.
I.e. your partition contains
/boot
/bsd
while the installer and the documentation expect
/boot/
/boot/boot
/boot/bsd
but your layout is fine as long as you update the PMON paths to not have
the `boot/' subdirectory in them.
