It would appear that you are as hosed as the rest of us with 425e's.  With
no idea where the FrameBuffer or Control Address spaces are, the video
drivers cannot be updated to work on the 425e.  Unfortunately as well, the
425e will not currently boot with a serial console either.  I've been
through all of this to no avail.  I'm trying to track down information so
that we can get the 425e supported, but am not having much luck finding out
what is needed.  If you manage to get anything with NetBSD up and running
on your 425e, please let me know directly and I'll do the same for you.
