other OS :oD VMS is VMS is VMS.....)
I load my big-iron VAXen by MOP booting them directly from the VMS CD
using an Infoserver. I suppose you could use NetBSD mopd to do
something similar, but it's much easier with the Infoserver, which is
designed specifically for that purpose.
If you can get your hands on an Infoserver, I highly recommend it.
