As someone who's familiar with Linux (I've been running Linux on my 486 for
about a year),
and who is new to NetBSD/Mac68k, I would agree with Russ. Despite my very strong
interest in MacBSD, and despite my efforts at finding information on the
websites, my
experience so far has been that it is either difficult or impossible to
find much information
that should probably be in a HOWTO or a FAQ. So it would be time very well
spent to
document more fully such items, I think. I am willing to help however I
can, but I fear
I'm too new here to do much. I do have experience with getting the
multiuser boot
via the serial console working, but that HOWTO is now apparently taken. I
will of course
be willing to test new kernels etc.

One way to get more exposure for NetBSD/Mac68k would be to get a mention
in some of the Linux web docs. Has anyone tried to sell this idea? We could
offer to mention
Linux in the NetBSD/Mac68k in the unlikely event that someone who knows about us
hasn't heard about Linux. Seriously, I would be willing to spend some time
on this.
