NetBSD/mac68k 1.0 runs on several of the older Macintosh computers.
|
|
4MB of RAM should be sufficient to boot and the system can probably
|
|
be squeezed onto a 40MB hard disk by leaving off a package or two.
|
|
To actually do much compiling or anything more interesting than
|
|
booting, at least 8MB of RAM and more disk space is recommended.
|
|
About 50MB will be necessary to install all of the NetBSD 1.0 binary
|
|
distribution (note that this does not count swap space!). Much more
|
|
disk space is required to install the source and objects as well (about
|
|
another 105MB).
|
|
|
|
Supported models:
|
|
Mac II
|
|
Mac IIx
|
|
Mac IIcx
|
|
Mac IIci
|
|
Mac SE/30
|
|
|
|
Supported devices on all of the above systems include:
|
|
Internal SCSI bus and most SCSI tapes, hard drives, and CD-ROMs
|
|
Internal sound--enough to beep, anyway
|
|
Most basic NuBUS video cards (there have been some
|
|
problems with some 24-bit color cards)
|
|
Both internal serial ports
|
|
ADB keyboards and mice
|
|
|
|
Some systems will boot and are usable from an external terminal
|
|
(serial tty or SL/IP):
|
|
Mac IIsi
|
|
Mac IIvx
|
|
possibly others
|
|
|
|
What isn't supported, but often asked about:
|
|
Ethernet cards. There is a driver that is very close to working
|
|
for a number of cards. Contributions are very welcome.
|
|
68040-based Macs. Work is in progress on getting a Quadra 700
|
|
running. This requires a new scsi driver and a new
|
|
ethernet driver.
