Well, I wish I could prove you wrong, but unfortunately I have to agree
:-(
So far, an intensive (and increasingly expensive) search of www.sun.com,
docs.sun.com and access1.sun.com hasn't yielded anything that comes
close to what I'd call a technical reference manual. There are two
options open, as far as I can see: open up my Sun, look at all the stuff
inside, get its part no. and get the info for it (if it's available),
or, ask someone at NetBSD.org  how they did it.
Option 2 is somewhat unsatisfying, since they must have got their info
from somewhere...

If anyone has better ideas/wishes to flame me for being a fool etc etc
please go ahead. If it points me in the right direction, that's fine by
me :-)

Cheers,

Gerald

PS. I've also looked at www.sparc.org and they seem to have nice manuals
for Sparc CPUs etc which are OK-ish pricewise, but that only explains
the CPU, not the Lance chips, the esp chip, the floppy controller etc
etc
