Ok, I've created my tables once again, and tried to fill in as much
information as I can find for each of the models I've heard about. (One
of these days, I'm going to have to find a decently flexible database to
handle this ;-)
Anyway, here is what will shortly become the current machine-status
document for NetBSD/mac68k:
NetBSD/Mac68k Machine Status
Colin Wood, ender@rice.edu
v1.2.1, 20 October 1996
This document serves as the definitive source of information of the
status of which Macintosh models are known to work with current
kernels (i.e. post-1.2 release) for the mac68k port of NetBSD
(a.k.a. MacBSD)
Model = Mac Model
CPU = processor (type/speed)
SC = Serial console required
IV = Internal (on board) video works
NV = Nubus/PDS video works
IE = Internal ethernet works
NE = Nubus/PDS ethernet works
ADB = ADB (keyboard and mouse) works
SCSI = SCSI works
FPU = Has built-in math coprocessor
PMMU = Has Paged Memory Management Unit on board
32 = Has 32-bit clean ROM's (does _not_ require MODE32)
Kernel = Recommended kernel (1.2 = NetBSD 1.2 release kernel)
Comments = ...
Y = yes, N = no, O = not an option, ? = no info available
Fully working machines (i.e. ADB, video, disk)

As usual, I welcome your comments, suggestions, criticisms, additions,
corrections, deletions, etc. _Please_ let me know if I have anything
wrong on this document. Also, if you can help me fill in a ? or two,
please email me with the info.
If anyone has a problem understanding the categories, I'd also like to
know about it. The previous machine-status document was a bit confusing
on some categories, hopefully, this one isn't.
Thanks for your input.
Later.
