Hello, all... I am trying to find out if the following platform is supported
by any port of NetBSD..
" Our VAX is a little number called a Microvax 3800 (in strict DEC
parlance it is a 380T1-AA). It consists of a KA655-AA cpu, 32MB of
MS650-BA memory, a DESQA-SA Ethernet adapter and a KFQSA-SA DSSI bus
controller which supports 3 RF72E-SF disks (1GB ea.). We also have a
whole bunch of serial lines, primarily CXA16-M modules. The system has
a TK70 console tape drive which is the usual load medium for this
class of machine. We also can support 8mm cartridge tape and also (in
a pinch) 1600-3200-6250 BPI nine track tape (yeccch!)
We are presently running OpenVMS VAX Version V5.5-2."
I am at wit's end reading FAQs and HOWTOs, and I don't really know enough
about VAX systems in general to ask a literate question in terms of data
busses, tapes, and so on, so I got one of my compadres to write up the above
for me. Please reply in general, whether it be it does, it doesn't, I have
seen the following, or whatever. Thanks Muchly!!
