	There is a general overview from someone who worked on the
	mac68k port at:

	me know :)

	You should probably start with the ofppc port.

	If you have another powerpc box that runs netbsd you can compile
	test kernels on that, otherwise the easiest option would be to 
	use the cross/powerpc-netbsd pkgsrc package to crosscompile from
	another NetBSD i386 or similar box.

	You may want to direct powerpc technical questions to the
	port-powerpc list.

	Good luck!
