NetBSD/sun3 1.2 runs on most Sun3 machines, including:
|
|
3/50, 3/60, 3/110
|
|
3/75, 3/150, 3/160
|
|
3/260, 3/280
|
|
|
|
NetBSD/sun3 1.2 does not run on the Sun3/80 (sun3x class)
|
|
because the sun3x MMU and other devices are very different.
|
|
|
|
The minimal configuration requires 4M of RAM and ~80MB of disk space.
|
|
To install the entire system requires much more disk space (approx.
|
|
100MB additional space is necessary for full sources). To run X
|
|
or compile the system, more RAM is recommended. Good performance
|
|
requires 8MB of RAM, or 16 MB when running the X Window System.
|
|
|
|
Here is a table of recommended HD partition sizes for a full install:
|
|
partition: advise needed
|
|
root (/) 15M 10M
|
|
user (/usr) 80M 45M
|
|
swap (2 or 3 * RAM) 8M
|
|
Anything else is up to you!
|
|
|
|
Note that the sun3 installation procedure uses a `miniroot' image
|
|
which is placed into the swap area of the disk. The swap partition
|
|
must be large enough to hold this miniroot image.
|
|
|
|
The following Sun3 hardware is supported:
|
|
|
|
Serial ports (RS232):
|
|
built-in ttya, ttyb
|
|
|
|
Video adapters:
|
|
bwtwo, cgtwo, cgfour
|
|
|
|
Network interfaces:
|
|
On-board Lance Ethernet (le)
|
|
On-board or VME Intel Ethernet (ie)
|
|
|
|
SCSI: (Most SCSI disks, tapes, CD-ROMs, etc.)
|
|
On-board "si" (SCSI-3) [Note 1]
|
|
VME "si" (SCSI-3) board [Note 1]
|
|
|
|
SMD Disks: (the big, heavy ones 8^)
|
|
Xylogics 450/451 [Note 2]
|
|
Xylogics 753/7053 [Note 2]
|
|
|
|
Input devices:
|
|
Sun keyboard and mouse
|
|
|
|
Miscellaneous:
|
|
Battery-backed real-time clock.
|
|
|
|
Note 1:
|
|
The "si" driver now supports DMA and disconnect/reselect.
|
|
DMA is enabled by default, but not disconnect/reselect.
|
|
|
|
Note 2:
|
|
The SMD disk drivers ("xd" and "xy") are working but
|
|
have not had much testing. (Probably need work.)
|
|
|
|
If it's not on this list, there is no support for it in this release.
