I am trying to run netbsd on a Mac Powerbook 145B
(68030, no fpu, 8 megs, 640x400x1bit).

netbsd.950805 (new adb driver ?) is the most successful kernel for it,
it just locks while initializing the adb. Besides, enabling the serial
echo or serial console locks everything (1 gray bar).

After some painful tinkering with netbsd.950805, I managed to disable
the adb stuff, which allowed netbsd to boot and start running /etc/rc.
That is quite encouraging but most commands (like fsck and ls) seem to
fail with a segmentation fault.

Has anyone tried this before ? Is there a way to compile netbsd kernels
from, say, a Linux box ? Any hints highly appreciated.
