BTW, not being able to boot without a monitor is a long-standing
problem. There's a thread from 1996 about the same thing:

Most of the responses seem to suggest just wiring up a jumper so the
Mac thinks there's a monitor attached (or plug in a Mac->VGA adapter,
which'll have the same effect). It's possible that the problem you're
running into now isn't the same as the one people were having back
then... so running monitor-less was working for you with NetBSD 2.1?
