Take a look at the kernal source code.  sys/arch/mac68k/dev/st.c I think 
lists all the devices that are supported with NetBSD.  I tried using one 
of the old Apple Tape Backups (3M MDC-40) and there was no matching 
driver.  I will start playing with the kernel source to try and get it 
working on this drive as soon as I get a 1.0 kernel, and source that is 
stable.
