What is the possibility of porting netbsd/alpha to those unfortunates
with an arc/alphabios only system? I got my first risc machine: an Alpha
XL266 but it only runs Linux and NT. I've actually considered switching
to NT, but not because linux's quirks. MILO, the bootloader for linux, isn't
really maintained any more. Compiling it requires some devily I'll never
know.
So, is there any possibility? I know the FAQ mentions it, but
what would be involved?
