My R140 now has 8 MB RAM and a 33 MHz ARM3. The ARM3 board also has room
for an FPA10, and the crystal oscillator is in a socket, so I can
replace the latter with a 50 MHz one (that I have lying around) and
stick the FPA10 in.

My A5k will be at 8 MB RAM as well, as soon as I can get someone at work
to replace the MEMC1a with a socket, and then I can mount the extra 4 MB
that I have lying around. This box also has an FPA10.

So, maybe someone is interested in working on the FPA code again?

Getting my R140 up and booting over the network again, I have run into
the following problem with BBBB 0.44 (looks like this is the latest
when trying to do a cvs update -dP):
Error: Page 19 not free at line 3210 (Error number &1)

Before that error I have:
Machine has 256 pages of 32K each. Total RAM: 8Mb
Lowering HIMEM: &598000 -> &18000
[snip]

So, maybe someone wants to take a look at this?

It would be nice to be able to finally get a shell on this box, now that
I have 8 MB RAM.

I am attaching a copy of the output that was generated by the PodID2,ffb
program that I found at
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/arch/arm26/riscos/

For completeness sake I outline the steps taken on the R140 to get it
to boot over the network:
- Set the station ID with stationset,ffb as found above
  The ID can be anything, but stick to the LSB of the IP address. Mine
  is set to 177.
- Configure BootNet On
- Configure FileSystem Net
- Configure Boot
- Configure FS kbtsparc (or whatever you computer is called)
- You must also make sure that none of the modules are unplugged.

In addition to this, I have installed the aund software on my
NetBSD/sparc and also set that up for DCHP. You also need to do an alias
on the Ethernet, and in my case this is:
ifconfig le0 alias 1.0.128.80

The LSB of the address above is the LSB of the IP address of your
server. The three MSBs must be as above.

The aun software can be found at:
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/arch/arm26/

I don't know whether I am using the 0.01 or 0.02 version, but it works
for me.

I probably have forgotten something above, but I don't think so.

TIA!
