Re: NWS-3260



Hi Tsutsui San!

If you are interested, i can send a NWS-3260 to you. If the job is not
to complex, i can do it by myself with some tips & hints from you.

Thanx a lot for help..

I don't know about this is real error message. If so, where can i

an install image (boot.fs) with FPU suppurt for NWS-3260 ?

All netbsd kernels are compiled with -msoftfloat and no FPU
instructions are used in kernel. Maybe the real problem here is
a bug in the interrupt handler caused by spurious interrupts
from framebuffer.

now after many trys i found an boot-image that rocks. But yet another
problem is that this image looks like incomplete. After the first and
second boostrap, a minimal NetBSD is running from floppy.

That 1.4L image is too old and it does not include sysinst.

Where can i find this program compiled for running on NEWS-MIPS R3000?
And what i have to do to now for the next undocumented steps?

NetBSD 1.6 supports R3000 newsmips and it actually works fine on
my NWS-3470, but it has problem on machines which have unsupported
framebuffers. Probably there are some problem on console initialization,
but it's a bit hard to debug without a real machine..
