Hey all,
Does anyone remember if 2ed ran on the turbosparc that was in the
sparcstation5 at 170mhz? I've run into some problems and wanted to
double check.
Thanks

Yeah, that's what I thought. Seems they are practically identical,
only trouble is the Fujitsu-made turbosparc and the rest of the sparc
line-up aren't exactly trouble-free comparisons. Evidently there are
hw bugs that solaris worked around. Seems like OpenBSD figured it out,
maybe I'll holler at those guys.
