I have an NEC Image RISCstation w/ 16MB ram and a 200MB HD. 
currently I have not *nix systems available to netboot to however I 
can burn CD-r disks that can be read. The NIC that I am using is a 
3c509B-TPC in an ISA slot (the card does not have an EPROM). 
NT4 is currently installed. Currently the inteded use for the system 
is a dialup router w/ minimal webservices (http and ftp).

What is the best way to get NetBSD installed if it can be? If it 
cannot be installed what will be needed to complete successfully 
an installation?

If netbooting is required, is there a way of programming EPROMs 
in the netcard for use as a bootrom?

Thanks for any advice.
