My 4.4BSD Lite CD has (old) Sparc Stuff on it. "The 4.4BSD-Lite distribution adds support for several new architectures including: Sparcstations 1 and 2, MIPS based Decstation 3100, 5000, and Sony NEWS, 68000 based HP9000/300 and Omron Luna, and 386 based PC's. Both the HP300 and SPARC ports can run native operating system binaries via emulation." I don't got no Sparc Hardware though -- I'm supposed to have -- but it seems to be missing in transit. -- Totally Holistic Enterprises Internet| P:+61 7 3870 0066 | Andrew The Internet (Aust) Pty Ltd | F:+61 7 3870 4477 | Milton ACN: 082 081 472 | M:+61 416 022 411 |72 Col .Sig PO Box 837 Indooroopilly QLD 4068 |akm@theinternet.com.au|Specialist To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-sparc" in the body of the message
