If this is true, then it's certainly news to me, as I asked that very same
question a few weeks ago, and the answer I got was that it has only been
started, but nothing has been gotten to a bootable stage.
I'm going to try to get NetBSD working on the sun4m (as soon as my V8 manual
comes in), and I think that other people are working on it as well. But as
far as I know, it's definately a blaze-your-own-trail sort of thing right
now :-)
