In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-sparc@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org ok, well there does seem to be a few people subscribed to this list. some questions to help me get started: a) Any URLs to Usparc assembler language (detailed) b) Any recommended books a&b for: sbus info, creator info, the scsi interface, serial interface i don't plan on supporting much as this is the first time i'm doing something like this. however i did purchase the box explicilty for this purpose. so i'm really counting on some pointers. other stuff: netbsd seems to have a usparc port, but i don't see any support in their source tree, any pointers/clues? i'm thinking of installing UltraPenguine as a build enviorment but would rather use netbsd for obvious reasons. so, opinions/comments? if anyone wants to donate a book on the arch to me i'll pay for shipping+whatever (if you want a small return on the book) unfortunatly all i have is books on PA-RISC, x86 and PPC archs, well PDP-11 if you count the Lions Book. :) thanks all, Alfred Perlstein - Programmer, HotJobs Inc. - www.hotjobs.com -- There are operating systems, and then there's FreeBSD. -- http://www.freebsd.org/ 3.0-current On Thu, 5 Nov 1998, Matthew Jacob wrote: > On Thu, 5 Nov 1998, Unfurl wrote: > > > "ee's pineing for the fields..." > > > > So there really is *no* work being done on this port? > > > That I cannot say.
