Unfortunately 68010 doesn't have an MMU. The sun2-hardware uses a custom
Sun-designed MMU, I think. The original poster should know :)
Anyway, there's a custom HP MMU but I think it was only used on 320 and 350.
Possible uses for the 310 include HP Basic (+pascal etc), SRM and possibly
older versions of HP-UX (1.x - 5.x (at least 5.x)). Cute little box but
it pales in comparison to the bigger boxes of the same series.
I'd love to get my hands on HP-UX 5 for m68k not to mention the ROM-based
HP-UX version :-)
ps. somebody correct me if my "facts" are wrong. again.
