The netbsd12 file won't work on an LCIII, try using one of the -current
tarballs. I am currently booting with GENERICSBC-15, I'm not sure if that
specific kernel is availble anymore though. I do know it will work with
the dist. 1.2 version files though, unlike kernels post -15, which need
the whole -current tree (to my knowledge, someone please correct me if
wrong).
Hope that helps,
