You should have a look at (now obsolete) BenH's BootX, which actually
boots my 7100/MkLinux. It runs, like NetBSD-mac68k, on MacOS. Due to the
fact that the Nubus-class ROM boots 68k code, I think a small MacOS
partition as bootloader cannot be avoided.

I will soon have a spare 6100, I have a reasonable knowlegde of those
machine architecture, I hope I'll be able to help.
