Hi,
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 do you have in the VS2000? Default is IIRC 2M which is
too small for most versions of NetBSD...

I know, some time is already gone since my question here, but now
I'm sitting next to that what my friend calles an VS2000...it is an card
cage, Mainboard, Memory Board, 2 Color Options, Lance Ethernet,
some wiring harnesses and an PSU :-|.
Ok, Tere where two Color Boards, 4 plane and 8 plane, mounted the 4
plane version and put that thogether, connected my FreeBSD PC and here
it is:

If I'm interpreting that correctly then the machine has 6MB of Memory.
There is no MFM Disks, but I've connected the ST31200N that was in the
box with the boards.
I don't even know if the VS2000 is able to boot from that SCSI disk, is
that possible or is an RDxx MFM disk necessary?
