Would it be possible to boot NetBSD cleaner if you knew you always wanted
to boot to it instead of RISC OS, by modifying the disc-based boot
structure so that it doesn't set anything RISC OS related but went straight
to btriscbsd as from a command line?

Would it be possible to refine the above with an on-screen menu offering
the choice of booting via RISC OS into NetBSD or into a more configured
RiscOS session (as with Dos or Windows boot menus)?

Just a couple of thoughts without any knowledge of practicality - I'm not
familiar enough with the ways RISC OS and NetBSD work during boot up.
