RE: Motorola MTX board support?

[Bill Rees <bill_rees%firepower.com@localhost>]

If the mtx board is from the embedded group, it does not use open
firmware most likely.  If the board is newer than 2 years and is part of
a stand alone system, it probably will support open firmware.

The big problem is the lack of a fully functional powerpc NetBSD
version.
