Issues Installing NetBSD on a PineBook Pro

Bronzebeard and KC9, thanks very much for the prompt replies and thorough information.
I'm not too afraid of trying BSD on virgin soil. I've set up both Arch and Void systems before (and of the pair I settled for Void, which I'm told was created by a former NetBSD dev). Installing these involves a lot of editing config files. I picture the BSD experience as being similar. But eventually you have a system that's entirely yours, and that's true contentment. A system that's surprise-free.
I'll continue tinkering through the week, taking into account both of your suggestions. Then I'll let everyone know how it went.
