If you're interested in customizing a new kernel, you'll notice that all the
source is identical for each machine. The difference is in the 
	src/sys/arch/
directory, which contains the system-specific pieces that will cause NetBSD
to run on a mac or pc or amiga, etc. 

To build yourself a kernel, you will need:
	src/sys/*,
whereas to build yourself the entire distribution (make world) you need
	src/*.
If you want to pear down the things you have to get by about 8 megabytes,
you only _have_ to download part of /src/sys/arch, as in:
	/src/sys/arch/m68k and /src/sys/arch/mac68k
I may have the paths screwed up. You also have to download everything
that is not in /src/sys/arch. Additionally, you can delete several files that
are not specific to your options later, but you can't do that immediately.

enjoy...

I went to ftp.netbsd.org to get the current, but it doesnt say whether it
is for Mac68k or not, it doesnt say anything, it just has some tar files.

Where can i get the mac68k NetBSD-current? and do i need to download every
package?

Thanks.
