I was trying to get a NetBSD of any sort up on my sun4100 VME machine
(Call it mostly a Sun 4/110), but was not having any luck except for
1.2.1 and 1.3.3.  None of the 1.4.1, 1.4.2, 1.4.3, 1.5.1, 1.5.2 booted
on it.  Is anyone besides me still running a VME sun4100 cpu based
machine with NetBSD?  If so, what are you actually running on it, and
what, if anything, out of the ordinary did you have to do to get it up
and running.  SunOS 4.1.3U1 and OpenBSD 2.9 run fine on it.  Either
something strage is going on with my particular cpu, or I am missing
something about installing via miniroots in NetBSD.  So, out of curiosity,
who is actually running sun4 vme machines, these days with NetBSD?

Thanks

Bob
