      1  1.1  deraadt NetBSD/sparc 1.0 runs on Sun4c class machines only, which includes
      2  1.1  deraadt the SS1, SS1+, SS2, IPC, ELC, IPX, and the SLC.  It does not run
      3  1.1  deraadt on Sun4, Sun4m, or Sun4d machines.
      4  1.1  deraadt 
      5  1.1  deraadt The minimal configuration requires 4M of RAM and ~60M of disk space.
      6  1.1  deraadt To install the entire system requires much more disk space, and to run
      7  1.1  deraadt X or compile the system, more RAM is recommended.  (NetBSD with 4M of
      8  1.1  deraadt RAM feels like Solaris with 4M of RAM.) Note that until you have
      9  1.1  deraadt around 16M of RAM, getting more RAM is more important than getting a
     10  1.1  deraadt faster CPU.)
     11  1.1  deraadt 
     12  1.1  deraadt Supported devices include:
     13  1.1  deraadt 	Video: cgthree, cgsix, and bwtwo frame buffers

     17  1.1  deraadt 	Sun keyboard and mouse
     18  1.1  deraadt 
     19  1.1  deraadt Hardware the we do NOT currently support, but get many questions
     20  1.1  deraadt about:
     21  1.1  deraadt 	The floppy drive.
     22  1.1  deraadt 
     23  1.1  deraadt The next release will likely run on many more machines.  In
     24  1.1  deraadt particular, some Sun4 support will be there, and perhaps even
     25  1.1  deraadt Sun4m.
