It would have helped to have read the documentation before, at least
the pages about supported hardware. An A1200 has only an 68020 by
default, and no MMU. But NetBSD absolutely needs one; 68030 (except EC
models) and 68040 and 68060 include one, and there is a co-processor
MMU for 68020 (the Commodore A2620 board for A2000 had one). So unless
you get a 030 board for your A1200, NetBSD will never run. Not the
slightest bit. (Neither will OpenBSD or Linux, for that matter.)
