Maybe it's the same thing I had a few weeks ago. The kernel gives the wrong 
frequency, so the PIV can't show the screen. 
I tested a few frequencies and found one, which functions good. 
So you first need the BinPatch Tool (on the Gateway-CD or FTP) for the AmigaOS.
And in the AmigaOS you start the following:

binpatch -s _clconsole_mode -o 82 -r 27000000 netbsd

at the position netbsd you have to give your whole path for the netbsd-file 
i.e. work:bsd/netbsd or something like that.

P.S. The Mailprograms (so YAM does it) shows the clconsolemode underlined, so 
you have to display it in Raw or PainText-format. It's a simple underscore (you 
say so on english for that??) before the word clconsolemode.
