Well, if you included as little information in your original post, I
wouldn't be surprised. Regardless...
You can get souce and binaries for NetBSD from ftp.iastate.edu.
NetBSD currently runs on Intel-based PC's, 68k Macs, Amigas, Sun 3 and
Sun 4 architectures, HP 300, certain MIPS-based DECstations, and
PC532. It is meant for workstations, PC's and other microcomputers.
Are you running one of these? Otherwise, you could try getting a copy
of 4.4BSD-lite from CSRG, but that is not a complete system.
