NetBSD/x68k 1.2 runs on the Sharp X68030 series PCs with TRUE
|
||
|
|
MC68030 MPU (not MC68EC030) and FPU. Since the processor of
|
||
|
|
the X68030 series is MC68EC030RC25, you need to replace it
|
||
|
|
with MC68030RC25 (Simply remove the old chip and put the new one
|
||
|
|
instead. The largest difficulty might be to open your X68030).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In addition, some accelerators are supported:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Xellent030
|
||
|
|
Xellent030S
|
||
|
|
040turbo
|
||
|
|
Jupiter-X (040 / 060)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This means all models of X680x0 series PC except for CZ-600C
|
||
|
|
and CZ-674C, by using the appropriate accelerator, can run NetBSD!!
|
||
|
|
Note that the processor of Xellent030 series is MC68EC030, so
|
||
|
|
you need to replace your processor as well as for X68030.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The minimal configuration requires 4M of RAM and about 65M of
|
||
|
|
disk space. To install the entire system requires much more disk space,
|
||
|
|
and to run X or compile the system, more RAM is recommended.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Here is a table of recommended HD partition sizes for a full install:
|
||
|
|
partition: advise, with X, needed, with X
|
||
|
|
root (/) 15M 15M 10M 10M
|
||
|
|
user (/usr) 65M 100M 45M 80M
|
||
|
|
swap ----- 2M for every M ram -----
|
||
|
|
local (/local) up to you
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As you may note the recommended size of /usr is 20M greater than
|
||
|
|
needed. This is to leave room for a kernel source and compile tree
|
||
|
|
as you will probably want to compile your own kernel. (ALL is
|
||
|
|
large and bulky to accommodate all people).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Supported devices include:
|
||
|
|
- Sharp genuine SCSI interface (builtin / optional)
|
||
|
|
* SCSI harddisks, CD-ROM drives, tape drives, scanners,...
|
||
|
|
- The builtin floppy drives
|
||
|
|
- The builtin frame buffer (both of the text and graphics screen)
|
||
|
|
- The builtin serial (RS-232C)
|
||
|
|
- The builtin parallel (Centronics printer interface)
|
||
|
|
- The standard keyboard
|
||
|
|
- The mouse / trackball
|
||
|
|
- NS16550 serial
|
||
|
|
- Neptune-X ethernet
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Hopefully, the AD-PCM sound device and the Mankai SCSI interface
|
||
|
|
(Mach-2) will be supported on the next release.
