There have been many, many Alpha-specific enchancements since the
|
|
1.2 release. These include:
|
|
|
|
* Supporting more system types (including the 8200/8400).
|
|
|
|
* Making many more device drivers (mostly from the i386 port)
|
|
work on the alpha.
|
|
|
|
* Changing the object file format from COFF to ELF, and adding
|
|
shared library support
|
|
|
|
NetBSD 1.3 on alpha is, as usual, also fully backward compatible
|
|
with old NetBSD/alpha binaries, so you don't need to recompile all
|
|
your local programs.
