To install and run NetBSD/vax you need a MicroVAX II or VAX 11/750
|
|
|
|
with at least 4MB of memory, and a usable install media. Supported
|
|
|
|
install media is TK50 tape and RX33/RX50 floppy. If you do initial
|
|
|
|
installation from floppy then you need a way to load the rest of
|
|
|
|
the system, like tape or ethernet.
|
|
|
|
NOTE! TU58 INSTALLATION IS NOT YET SUPPORTED, BUT WILL BE.

Actually, the system will run fine on only 2MB of memory, but
|
|
|
|
installation program needs 4MB. If this causes trouble for someone
|
|
|
|
tell me and I'll fix it.

Differences between the NetBSD/vax port and other ports:
|
|
|
|
* It uses gcc 2.7.0 as default compiler.
|
|
|
|
* libm is not the same as the other ports; instead it is 4.4BSD libm.
|
|
|
|
* No dynamic linked libraries, all binaries is statically linked.
|
|
|
|
These things will be fixed in the future.
