Is this an active >port ? What CPU's will be supported etc. We are currently working on 11/750, with dual-ported Massbuss disks so that we can have one machine running and another for test-booting. Right now it runs single-user, but there are some problems with memory management that makes it crash sometimes. We'll try to support as many CPUs that possible, people are working on uVAX right now, and I myself will fix support for KA88 when it runs stable on 750 (If noone else does it before me :) 11/780 and 86X0 will probably not be so hard to get working either. /ragge -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Anders Magnusson - ragge@ludd.luth.se - Luleå Academic Computer Society - - May the carrier be with you! -
