A friend gave an VS2000 to me to install a BSD on that VS for him. Which NetBSD Version would you reccomend to install on it? since this thing isn't really a fast and big machine this hasn't to be the last version existing..I want something that works halfways flawlessly and as "performant" as possible on this hardware..
How much memory does it have?Anecdotally, I have a VAXstation VLC with no CPU cache which has run both NetBSD 6 and NetBSD 8 in 24 megs of memory as a mail server and web server. Benchmarks show it's around the speed of an 11/780.
ssh only works if the machine is otherwise idle, else it takes too long and times out before the connection completes. Likewise, TLS on email also only worked when the machine wasn't doing other things, even with just 1024 bits.
Otherwise, it's remarkable how usable it is, considering how much of a resource difference there is between those older machines and contemporary machines.
