A Q610 doesn't need MODE32. A real 040 is good.

Try the snapshot on ftp.netbsd.org in
/pub/NetBSD/arch/mac68k/current-970402

There are two things you can do. One is to hook another computer up
to the printer port, run a terminal emulator on it set to 9600 N1,
and set the Serial Echo option in the booter. This option will dump
everything out the printer port.

The other option is to copy it all by hand. It's frustrating, but we
really can't help if you don't. The last few lines (say 8 or so) will be
a good start. Spelling errors are ok.

Take care,
