AFAICT, no one tried yet to boot NetBSD/macppc with the
card.  So it's unknown if it works or not.

The driver of BrookTree card is not contained to normal
macppc kernel, so you have to copy the lines below to your
own kernel configuration file, then build and install it if
you want to dive into the sea.

It seems that the bktr is only supported on i386 officially.
Other architectures don't contain bktr line in their GENERIC
configuration file.  It might have some endian or alignment
issues.

See above.  I hope this helps.
