Subject: sun-3/50 and sun-3/60 port
Date: Thu,  1 Aug 1996 15:21:47 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <19960801142147.-u3smaGargwDFF3Aq99c4XBZDauRixOkIrKb_uQF79A@z> (raw)

based on a sun3 port by dhog@plan9.cs.su.oz.au,
i've put together a distribution kit that will build /sys/src/9/sun3
to allow you to run the system on most sun-3/50 and sun-3/60
machines that you might have lying about unused.
they are all right as basic terminals (without Acme, since there
isn't any 68k support for Alef), or in cpu server configurations,
as boxes to provide special services on your network,
or just as test boxes for kernel changes.

see http://www.plan9.cs.york.ac.uk/plan9/soft/nonlocal.html

note that other sun3 models such as the sun3/180 and 280 servers
are not supported;  nor is there support in this kit for the 68030-based
sun3/80, although that might appear at some point.
