Hmm. I've got another arcdiag output from Mark Prusinowski.
(Mmm, I haven't replied to him, too. Sorry Mark...)
Mark's RISCstation 2250 looks like 2250 (PCI age), but has different
system ID (NEC-RA'94) and has S3 PCI VIA adapter rather than TGA.
So, there are at least 3 variants about RISCstation 2200:
Adam's
BIOS Vendor ID: "NEC W&S"
System ID: "NEC-R94"
L2 cache: 512KB
generation: EISA
Video: Jazz VXL
Urata's
BIOS Vendor ID: "NEC W&S" (right?)
System ID: "NEC-RA94"
L2 cache: 1MB (right?)
generation: PCI
Video: TGA (right?)
Mark's
BIOS Vendor ID: "NEC W&S"
System ID: "NEC-RA'94"
L2 cache: 1MB
generation: PCI
Video: S3 86C325 Virge 3D PCI VGA
(vendor: 0x5333, product: 0x5631)
Current arc kernel treats Mark's RISCstation 2200 as just like
RISCstation 2250.
Mark, could you try the following kernel with serial console?
ftp://ftp.sra.co.jp/pub/os/NetBSD/misc/arc/netbsd.COMCONS.2000-08-02.ecoff.gz
(Current arc kernel doesn't support Urata-san's RISCstation 2200, yet..)
