I didn't exactly answer your question - yes, I run NetBSD on two Amigas and I try to help keep things working properly. I try out different hardware whenever I get the chance. For example, I just got an IOblix multiport serial card and I'm trying to get everything working properly with that (and improve 16650 and 16950 support in NetBSD in general).

Next I hope to get a ZorRAM card or two to make sure that NetBSD is fine with larger amounts of memory...

Personally, I think NetBSD is excellent on Amiga hardware. People don't let it get overly bloated and too slow because we really do run it on old VAXen and m68030 Suns and Macs, for instance.
Links please, I fancy firing NetBSD up in UAE.
