I've actually been running netbsd(among others) inside of qemu in Linux.
 I am probably oversimplifying, but you are aware of the "-m" flag in
qemu, right?  For example, adding "-m 256" when it starts up will
allocate 256 MB of memory to it.

IIRC, it wants 128MB by default.  So if you are finding that its only
using 64MB in netbsd and you haven't hard set it to that, my gut feeling
is that its either a misconfiguration in your netbsd install, or a funky
bug in qemu running on top of netbsd.

#qemu on irc.freenode.net may prove helpful.
