   Excellent, thanks for the info!  Now I just have to choose a

Dave, you should realize that both of those are tiny VAXes...
  How very true, but I don't think NetBSD/vax runs on the '7000 yet. ;)

No, but it do run on 86x0 (or atleast should, except that 5.0 beta didn't when I tried). And that is even bigger than a 7000. :-)

  Very true, but I *have* a 7000.  Wow I'd love to see NetBSD/vax on that.

Yeah. I have a 7000 too, and all the required documentation of the machine to start working. I just haven't had enough time, and I've started loosing interest in putting any time into it.

I guess I could try 5.0 again now, and see what happens. But I suspect it won't work... :-(
