I guess sun-lamp.cs.berkeley.edu or one of it's mirrors.

Try ftp.iastate.edu:/pub/netbsd/NetBSD-current/binaries/mac68k.
To get the src try ../../src.

Don't know. But it should run on Mac's having a 68030/68040.
If not now, then in the future:-)

|> 3) How much memory/disk space does it needs?

Don't know this, either. gzip'ed src is about 22MB. A useable
system should need about 80 to 100 MB. It should run fine in 8MB 
memory.
