First, you tend to get answers quicker - and from more people - if you
put subject lines on your questions.

I used to run NetBSD on an A3000, and it was quite usable. I only got
the X server working briefly, as I mostly ran X clients talking to an
AmigaDOS X server. The SunOS emulation was also useful, though these
days finding 68K Sun software might be a bit difficult. G3 systems are
included in the supported hardware list.

OpenBSD also lists support for both the Amiga and G3 systems, but I
haven no experience with it.
