VAX machines usually need little or no preparation before installing NetBSD, other than the usual, well advised precaution of BACKING UP ALL DATA on any attached storage devices. You will need to know the CSR address of your disk controller(s) if they are on a Qbus/Unibus. The disk controllers must then be at either 772150 (DUA) or 760334 (DUB). These two addresses are the only recognized by the kernel and boot programs. Also; if you are installing on a VAXstation, you must have a serial console. The builtin graphic console are not yet supported.
