Free Sun 3/470 (sun3x) stuff
I have the parts to a full 3/470 "Pegasus" machine ready to give away or
it will have to be recycled. I never got a chance to learn all the names
of these pieces, nor their exact part numbers. They include:
* A 12-slot desk-side 9U (three connector) VME chasis. It is not the
original Sun chasis, it's a clone.
* About five memory boards.
* 3/470 "3400" main CPU board
* A couple of SCSI boards
* A color framebuffer board.
There are a couple of interesting feature on this sun3x machine that never
made it into NetBSD: the block copy accelerator and the page-zeroing
accelerator. It would be great if some kind NetBSD developer could take
this machine and use it to incorporate support for these devices into
NetBSD/sun3x, but I will gladly give the machine, or parts, to anyone who
asks.
The machine is located in the Northern San Francisco Bay Area. I can drive
the chasis around the Bay Area (but no further). The boards, which are
perhaps more rare, still have their most recent shipping boxes and
packaging. These I will ship to anywhere in the US or Canada for free.
If you aren't interested in this hardware but know someone who might be,
please forward this message to them.
Thanks!
