   Recently acquired a Sun 3/60; the ideal would be a port of BSD 4.4,
   but any version 4.x BSD would be sufficient.

   Thanks,

Well, there is a NetBSD/sun3 port which works enough to run /sbin/init
and most of bin/ and /sbin.  It is in need of drivers, among other
things.

Best way to find out about it is port-sun3@sun-lamp.cs.berkeley.edu.
There is also some documentation in
sun-lamp.cs.berkeley.edu:pub/NetBSD/arch/sun3.

NetBSD is net-2 based (i.e between 4.3 and 4.4), but will be
upgraded to 4.4-lite soon.

later,
