  Yep, it can be used with a Zip drive. The details are at
http://puma.macbsd.com/macbsd/howto/zip-HOWTO.  Also check out
www.macbsd.com for lots of general info about NetBSD/mac68k, including a
FAQ.

  As far as the partitions go, you might want to try the latest version of
mkfs. It has the ability to turn partitions into the right type. (Not sure
on the the version number.)

   You need to untar and ungzip the file. Stuffit Expander should take care
of the gziping, and there is a program called SunTar that can untar it.
Also make sure you use binary mode for the download (Perhaps Fetch would be
a good choice for this.)

  Good Luck.
