Is there any information that I should get from AIX before
wiping the
disk and installing NetBSD-prep on a 7025 F40?
I did boot the small floppy com0, but I haven't done an
install yet.

Not sure but... Might be nice to get a detailed list of the
hardware
with something like lscfg -v or something. When I did it on
mine
(little 7048 machine), I didn't save anything related to
AIX.

Not particularly.  Assuming of course you aren't going to
try to do anything
like dual-booting AIX and NetBSD, which might require you to
take careful
inventory of your disks.

lsdev -C and lspci as someone else suggested might be nice
to have, but aren't
needed for installation.
