First issue you'll encounter in such a scenario would be different schemes 
for disk partitioning and booting. Funny enough, the cobalt machines use a 
DOS MBR scheme just as i386, so no sweat there. For booting, you'll need a 
linux (mbr) partition, which contains the (netbsd) kernel,with the right 
name and an ext2fs on it (because the cobalt "BIOS" cannot read anything 
else).

After that, you can proceed pretty much as usual, just extract/cross-build 
the right binaries.
