NWS-3710 could run NetBSD.
Since the machine have not been tested it might have some problems,
but the fixes should be trivial.
(Anyway you have to use serial console, though.)

You can try the NetBSD 1.6_RC3 snapshot.
See the install note:
ftp://releng.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/200209060000/newsmips/INSTALL.html
and try boot floppy:
ftp://releng.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/200209060000/newsmips/installation/floppy/

(Yes, more things should be documented in the install notes.
 Any feedback is welcome :-)
