NetBSD/atari _VER runs on a TT030, Falcon and Hades. An FPU is not required.
The minimum amount of RAM required is 4Mb. On the Hades, only the et4000-PCI
card is supported in the _VER release. When another video card is present,
you can use NetBSD only with a serial console.
Here is a table of recommended HD partition sizes for a full install:
partition: advise, with X, needed, with X
root (/) 20M 20M 15M 15M
user (/usr) 95M 125M 75M 105M
swap ----- 2M for every M ram -----
local (/local) up to you
In addition of the rule of thumb for the swap size mentioned below, you
probably want to make sure that the size of the swap partition does not
drop below 20Mb (30Mb for systems with X).
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. (GENERIC is
large and bulky to accommodate all people, BOOT is small and might
not have all the features you want).
Supported devices include:
- The builtin SCSI host adapter
- Should support most SCSI-drives. The drives that are
currently tested are:
MAXTOR 7245S, MAXTOR 7080S, SEAGATE ST157N
- Should support most tape drives. The drives that are
currently tested are:
TANDBERG 3600, TANDBERG 3800
- Should support most CD-ROM drives.
- Should support most ZIP/MO drives.
- The builtin video controller
- The builtin (720Kb/1.44Mb) floppydrive
- The serial2/modem2 ports
- The Falcon FX memory expansion
- The atari mouse
- A 3-button mouse
- The parallel printer
- Riebl (and possibly PAM) ethernet cards on the VME bus.
- IDE interface on both Falcon and Hades
- The serial interface on the first 68901 UART (modem1)
- ET4000-PCI (VGA) on the Hades.
If it's not on this list, there is no support for it in this release.
