You need a modern kernel of the ADBTEST variety, I believe.  (I've been
running NetBSD w/ internal video on my Classic II for about 2 months now),
sorry I can't remember exactly where to find it.  Your best bet is to try
a) ftp.macbsd.com.. browse around the whole hierarchy, include /outgoing
  dirs.. there aren't that many directories 
b) if you can't find it, try reading the archives at:
   ftp.netbsd.org:/pub/NetBSD/mailing-lists/port-mac68k/  the last 100 or
   so numbered files, just grep for "Classic II" or "ADBTEST" or "Zucca"

Good luck!

P.S.	I *have* a Classic II, but I like my Mac IIcx w/ 20MB RAM that 
	someone was throwing away better =)
