For 1.4.2, there'll be a netbsd-INSTALL{,SBC}.gz kernel under
installation/instkernel that should work just like the MI install
floppy (except that it's not on a floppy). Evidently it's not building
under current lately, but there is one built for 1.4.2_ALPHA.
It boots directly into a menu, that gives you the option of first
configuring, and then installing from the network, using ftp or nfs,
(among other things). It's very new for mac68k, so please file let us
know how it works, or file PR's if you encounter any bugs.
