Digital 2100 Server

[Rick Copeland]

I have recently purchased a Digital 2100 Server and Digital Storage Works
array. Does anyone know if it will run some form of NetBSD?

Thanks,

Is this a Digital DECstation 2100? If so then you are addressing the
wrong NetBSD port :) The DECstation/DECsystems are MIPS based, not VAX
based. Info can be had at http://www.netbsd.org/Ports/pmax or the mailing
list mailto:port...@netbsd.org

No, if it says "2100" and "server" on it, and it has a StorageWorks
array, it's almost certainly an *AlphaServer* 2100. He's still talking
to the wrong list, though. :-)

That sounds like an AlphaServer 2100 ... I have written code for NetBSD/alpha
to support it, but my testers report these machine checks during the PCI
device probes, and I just can't figure out where they're coming from.
