Hi,

How much work would it take to port NetBSD to SGI machines which are
ARCS-compliant? I have the SGI IRIS Indigo R4000 which claims ACE/ARCS
compliancy and would like to start a porting effort to these machines,
at least to the point of kicking up a kernel via tftp and using a zs
console terminal (or the ARCS GUI).

I understand NetBSD/pica is to become NetBSD/arc?
