You'll need to use a two stage booter if you want to boot an ELF
kernel, if you're just trying to install it you need
netbsd-INSTALL.ecoff.gz DECstation PROM's only understand ECOFF and not
ELF kernels. What exactly are you trying to netboot?
As for RAM, I only have small modules, not the 8 MB SIMMs. I'd go
to ebay and put in a search that emails you when it matches DECstation or
something.
