Some of you may have noticed that NetBSD now runs on the Motorola
Sandpoint PowerPC evaluation system. The port was done Allen Briggs of
Wasabi Systems and was paid for by Ikadega which will be using NetBSD
in its products.

The Sandpoint is a neat PPC eval board -- it is ATX form factor, has a
bunch of PC-like I/O (including PCI slots, IDE controller, PS/2 mouse,
etc.), and takes a couple of different processor modules.

See:

for more information on the Motorola Sandpoint.

Wasabi has put out a press release on the porting work at:
