Indeed it does - using OpenBSD's ofwboot I can boot the NetBSD
kernel. I replaced ofwboot.xcf with ofwboot from OpenBSD/macppc
3.2 on the tftp server and then netbooted. I put a netbsd.macppc
in the NFS directory (/export/client on my NetBSD server) and typed
in that when I got to the boot prompt.
Seems to work like it should, but unfortunately the built-in keyboard
doesn't work, so now I need is a USB one.
