\*V runs on the Sharp X68030 series PCs with a
|
|
.Em true
|
|
MC68030 MPU (not the original MC68EC030).
|
|
Since the processor of the X68030 series is the MC68EC030,
|
|
you need to replace it with an MC68030.
|
|
Simply remove the old chip and put in the new one instead.
|
|
The largest difficulty might be to open your X68030.

In addition, some accelerators are supported:

|
|
Note that the processor for the Xellent30 series is MC68EC030, so
|
|
you need to replace your processor as well as for X68030.
|
|
040Excel is reported
|
|
.Em not
|
|
to work at all; possibly because MC68LC040 support is
|
|
incomplete.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For 68030 systems, installing MC68881 or MC68882 FPCP is highly recommended
|
|
but not required.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The minimal configuration requires 4 MB of RAM and about 100 MB 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.
|
|
A good rule of thumb is to have a swap partition twice the size of the
|
|
amount of RAM in your machine.
|
|
You will probably want to compile your own kernel, as
|
|

is large and bulky to accommodate all people.
