If yours is an Estrella 200, support for that is on the NetBSD-1.6
release branch, and snapshots are available.

However, the Estrella 300 I have looks more like CHRP than PReP; in
particular, no provisions are made for the PReP-style firmware
Residual Data.  I'd like to integrate support for this machine into
the NetBSD/ofppc port, but due to time constraints that hasn't
happened yet.
