NetBSD/mvme68k _VER runs on Motorola MVME147 boards.
|
|
|
|
The minimal configuration requires 4M of RAM and ~100MB of disk space.
|
|
To install the entire system requires much more disk space (approx.
|
|
200MB additional space is necessary for full sources. Double that if you
|
|
want to recompile it all!). To run X (clients only) 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 (/) 20M 12M
|
|
user (/usr) 100M 80M
|
|
swap (2 or 3 * RAM) 8M
|
|
Anything else is up to you!
|
|
|
|
Note that the mvme68k 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 (> 6Mb).
|
|
|
|
The following VME147 hardware is supported:
|
|
|
|
Serial ports (RS232):
|
|
built-in console, tty01, tty02 and tty03
|
|
|
|
Parallel port:
|
|
On-board centronics style printer port
|
|
|
|
Network interfaces:
|
|
On-board Lance Ethernet (le)
|
|
|
|
SCSI: (Most SCSI disks, tapes, CD-ROMs, etc.)
|
|
On-board wd33c93 SCSI bus interface chip (async only for now).
|
|
|
|
Miscellaneous:
|
|
Battery-backed real-time clock.
|
|
VMEbus RAM cards.
|
|
|
|
If it's not on this list, there is no support for it in this release.
