NetBSD/sparc 1.0 runs on Sun4c class machines only, which includes
|
||
|
the SS1, SS1+, SS2, IPC, ELC, IPX, and the SLC. It does not run
|
||
|
on Sun4, Sun4m, or Sun4d machines.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The minimal configuration requires 4M of RAM and ~60M 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. (NetBSD with 4M of
|
||
|
RAM feels like Solaris with 4M of RAM.) Note that until you have
|
||
|
around 16M of RAM, getting more RAM is more important than getting a
|
||
|
faster CPU.)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Supported devices include:
|
||
|
Video: cgthree, cgsix, and bwtwo frame buffers
|
||
|
Serial ports: ttya and ttyb
|
||
|
On-board AMD Lance ethernet
|
||
|
Some SCSI CD-ROM drives
|
||
|
Sun keyboard and mouse
|
||
|
|
||
|
Hardware the we do NOT currently support, but get many questions
|
||
|
about:
|
||
|
The floppy drive.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The next release will likely run on many more machines. In
|
||
|
particular, some Sun4 support will be there, and perhaps even
|
||
|
Sun4m.
