I'm using an Ultra 5 270Mhz for www.rmkhome.com and ftp.rmkhome.com. I ditched
the IDE disk and put in a Symbios Logic 53c875 plus 18 gig UW drive. Seems to
work okay with 256 megs of memory.

NetBSD tencats 2.0.1 NetBSD 2.0.1 (TENCATS) #5: Sun Jan 23 17:33:14 MST 2005  rmk@tencats:/usr/src/sys/arch/sparc64/compile/TENCATS sparc64

Install 2.0 and then update the source ( netbsd-2-0 ) and rebuild.
