Then NetBSD should work fine with the DQ686 (though I

Yes. I used the DQ686
with a KA630 and a KA655 under NetBSD and it just
worked.
It might be interesting to try NetBSD loaded onto the
2nd one, if it
could be netbooted to do the install.
All my NetBSD installations on VAXen are done
by netboot. I never used
the install programm. I use a minimal NFS root to do the disklabel,
newfs, tar, MAKEDEV, ... procedure by hand. See the NetBSD web site for
a HowTo...
Perhaps you should do a low level reformat and bad block scan of the
disk? You know the magic words to invoke the controller setup?
