I'm not sure there's support for systems with a PCI bus.
I have a B132L+ that's sitting here waiting to have an
O/S installed on it.
At $50 it's worth buying, worst case you can run the
Penguin O/S on it until NetBSD supports it. I'd be
interested in getting one of those $50 units if they
work and there are any more available.
thanks

7300LC _is_ pa1.1 , 160MHz in this case, 64k+64k caches and
maybe optional 1M L2 cache, 1 gsc/pci, 1 gsc/pci/eisa slot.
it should have the same if_ie and osiop, just like the older ones.
onboard video, etc.

if it works, that's mad cheap for it, imho.
