- Every driver that was removed and whose number hasn't already been reused is now listed with a commented-out "obsolete" line. - The format of these has been systematized. Future format changes can probably be safely done with a script. - This does not include a few cases of assignments that only lasted a couple days, or stuff from before major reorgs. Some of these may be included nonetheless, because there was a lot of ground to cover and therefore not a lot of time to dig into history in detail. Note that the obsolete listings do not mean the major numbers can never be reused; that's up to portmasters and/or core. It does mean that they won't be reused by accident, however, which in some cases (depending on the driver, how widely used it was, its family of device nodes, their default permissions, etc.) can be quite dangerous. Note that some of the things now explicitly listed as obsolete are really ancient history. My scan went back as far as when the majors files were added. (But not before that.) |

$NetBSD: README,v 1.3 2005/12/11 12:17:04 christos Exp $ This is a port of NetBSD to the FIC8234 VME processor board, made by the swiss company CES (Geneve). These boards are (or have been) popular in high energy physics data acquisition (think of CERN!). See http://www.ces.ch/Products/CPUs/FIC8234/FIC8234.html for some technical data. The highlights: - MC68040 processor at 25 MHz (optional dual-processor) - 8 or 32 MByte RAM - 2 serial ports on Z85c30 - 79c900 (ILACC) ethernet - 53c710 SCSI The port is quite rudimentary at the moment. The kernel is started out of a running OS-9 system. SCSI support is not present yet, so it only works diskless with NFS (or ramdisk - not tested) root. It is good enough for multiuser, self-hosting etc. however. To start it: - make OS image by "objcopy --output-target=binary netbsd <imagename>" - load image to physical address 0x20100000 (RAM start + 1M) - jump to 0x20100400 For questions and contributions, contact Matthias Drochner (drochner@NetBSD.org).
