Hmm well I do have 2 other PCI macs that netbsd supports, but both of them
currently have linuxppc installed. One is a PowerCenter 132, and the other is
a PowerBase 240. If I really have to I can install netbsd on one of them to
test the card out, but I'm wondering if just booting the install floppy will
be good enough for this purpose? I also have a pentium 75 which runs both
Freebsd and win95. I do have a 7200/90 which would be perfect as a testbed,
but it is my understanding that the 601 processor is not supported yet. So
what should I do?
