For my own CI builds, I'm cross-building NetBSD from Linux for all
port/cpus and use that generated amd64 install ISO to do an autoated
installation into Qemu (simple `expect` script.) I use that generated
image as a r/o image with a writeable overlay (all plain Qemu
functionality) to have "throw-away" instances (different only by MAC
address) that I can easily start and end to do CI builds within a
NetBSD environment.
