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


I'v had no success running any of the 1.4 stuff or later on my 4/110,
either...  In the 1.4 days, something was wrong with the sw driver, to the
point that it didn't work, and lately, I have not been able to get the LAN
stuff working, which makes diskless booting a problem.
