Hi!

I know it's not the port-wish-list, but just a quick query:

Anyone working/planning to work on VAX 8000 ?. We've just received
a VAX8530 machine with a bunch of RA82's and allegedly 128(?) M RAM.

So far we managed to blow the fuses in the building then boot VMS :-).

Should we dump the whole thing, or is there any chance NetBSD could be booted
on it? How different is it from the uVAXII`s and 750's?

I'd be willing to help/experinent/debug, but don't have much docs.
