On my Sparcstation 5, both of the Serial ports are zstty:
zstty0 at zs0 channel 0 (console i/o)
zstty1 at zs0 channel 1
Haven't booted NetBSD on my 20 in some time, but I believe it should
be similar. If you examine the output of the dmesg command or cat
/var/run/dmesg.boot it should have more details on what was detected
at boot.
Hope this helps,
