You need a native Sonnet card only for Sonnet's installer. XPostFacto works
with any.

I think 160MB is a bit tight, actually. I wouldn't expect good results with
less than 256MB.

Tim basically answered this question. The most mature BSD on the Mac, at
least 68k (/macppc is a relatively new port, actually), is NetBSD and the
one I would recommend. OpenBSD is very secure but can be finicky.
