So no, it's certainly not MCA, and yes, FreeBSD probably runs on it. There's a special version called ``FreeBSD(98)'' for it. Since these machines are (to the best of my knowledge) only available and most useful in Japan, many of the baseline FreeBSD developers throughout the world don't know very much about FreeBSD(98), even though the sources are kept in the same CVS repository now. I hope our Japanese team members, like asami@freebsd.org or max@freebsd.org might give you a pointer for FreeBSD(98). -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
