I am thinking about installing NetBSD on an Ultra 30.  I noticed in the 
Install Notes that the Video Device that I'm using (Creator 3D framebuffer)
is not supported.

Does this mean that after I begin booting from a CD-ROM or over the net,
that there will be a point at which there is nothing on the screen?  Or
does it mean that after booting, there will only be a text-mode?

I may try installing from Solaris, or I might try using a CD-ROM.
