There were issues.
(1) How to make serial connection from NetBSD.
(2) Does NetBSD run on Performa 6360 ?

(1) is simple.

Make sure /dev/tty0? and /usr/bin/cu permission.
Mine looks as following.
makoto@nazuha 11:16:08/011113(~)> ls -l /dev/tty0? /usr/bin/cu
crw-------  1 root  tty     12, 0 Nov 13 11:13 /dev/tty00
crw-------  1 uucp  wheel   12, 1 Nov 12 08:41 /dev/tty01
-r-sr-xr-x  1 uucp  wheel  141232 Jun 20 15:30 /usr/bin/cu*

Issue following command.
cu -l /dev/tty01 -s 38400
(Speed and 01 are just an Example).

(2) For 6360, sorry I don't have immediate answer with me now.
