Since April NetBSD runs on the Javastation-1. (But the more common
JavaStation-NC is *not* listed Supported System Models, someone with
access to any of those should state whether those work or not.)

Anyway you will have to use a serial console. (At least the was the
status last time I tried.)

I haven't tried myself, but I think the 200006*-snapshots should be
fine. If other people with the 3.11 PROM and/or the JavaStation-NC
supply some input from their systems, I can test the snapshot and
write up a basic FAQ during this week.
