Hi all,

Please reply to my personal email address on this one - I'm not subscribed 
to the list.

There's a VAX 6620 at my college that I'm pretty sure is headed for parts 
unknown - but NOT the dumpster unfortunately.  Anyhow, I think the school 
would be keen on donating it to the local Linux/FreeOS group if I could 
prove that it was able to run NetBSD.  Is there any chance of this 
happening within a reasonable timeframe?  I know there was a post a while 
back stating that multiprocessor support had been instated and that it 
would be easy to port NetBSD/vax to the 6000 series, but has anyone tried 
it?  If not, what sort of work would be necessary?  I'm not even sure what 
CPUs this system has given its lack of documentation in the Hardware 
Reference.  All I'm really looking for is the ability to get it to a 
single-user prompt to demonstrate basic functionality, but as always 
anything more would be nice :-)

Thanks in advance!
