Oh, I forgot to add something that may be a clue. I have a Macally USB
Keyboard and a Contour UniMouse on the system. They work fine under
MacOS 8.6, but the 3-button UniMouse causes MacOS 9 to hang on boot.
However, reconfiguring the system with the original Apple keyboard and
"hockey-puck mouse" didn't solve the problem of booting NetBSD as it does
with MacOS 9.
