Hi,

I got a SS20 offered that uses a 60MHz. 1MB Supercache. Is there 
any way for me to tell if the cache bug is present in this machine 
without installing NetBSD? What will a faster CPU bring, I do not 
care about a minute or two more or less for a kernel compile (like I 
do not care about a couple of 100MHz. more or less on x86).

The independent Sbus drivers page reports le, be, en as supported, 
the FAQ says be is not supported. I think I will try to get a hme and 
use current.

thanks 

mike
