I'm curious what free BSD UNIX releases are availible for Sun 3 and SPARC
systems. I've seen a partial NetBSD for desktop Sun3 (ie. 3/50,60) but, it
didn't look to be finished (please correct me if I'm wrong) . I need
something interesting to run on a 3/260 and a 4/260. The SPARC release
seemed alot further along but, needed a 4c cpu. Is there a FreeBSD release
for Sun? Is the Sun3 release being worked on activly or is it a lost project?
