You might want to call it "kinda started", but the most important part, i.e.
the memory management code, is still missing. Also, on a SS20 you probably
want to use the multiprocessor capability. There is nothing like that in
NetBSD.

I can't really answer this, but everything about the hardware will come
handy, especially about the processor and the mmu.
