I haven't had any of my VAXen fired up for a while due to well, I'm
lazy, cheap, and lame.  I'm looking at firing mine back up with the
latest and greatest code available as of yet.

I'm wondering:

Did anything happen with video support?

Can I self boot off SCSI (all mine have dual SCSI controllers)

Does the SCSI still suck?

Can I actually get the whole base system on two 100MB HD's and maybe a
little swap too?  I don't mind NFSing my home directories, but NFSing
everything gets a bit intensive on my lame PeeCees.

I figured I'd put NetBSD/VAX through its paces as a little toy shell
server for a while...  

Thanks,
Jacob Suter
