Hi all, I just powered off my last non-freebsd server here, an old Alphaserver with osf/1 that they bought here when they opened this ISP. My first idea was to scratch OSF/1 and install Freebsd over it, to play a bit in an enviroment that I know better - we have 4 servers with Freebsd and one with Pico, and 10+ installations around our small county. While I had to fight a bit with our floppy drive - we never used that and I even discovered it was disconnected :( - I succeded at booting the two floppies. It panic-ed just before starting, stating that architecture was not supported - I was waiting that, since I didn't read our server in the supported hardware list. I'm wondering if this architecture will be added in the future or not, since hardware is relatively old ... Well it's not an important machine here now, but I'd like to use it since it costed them a lot ....
