      3 Hardware supported by NetBSD/vax _VER includes (but may not be limited to): 
      4 
      5 	CPU types:
      6 
      7 		VAX 11/750, VAX 11/78{0,5}, VAX 8200/8250/8300/8350,
      8 		VAX 8600/8650, MicroVAX II, MicroVAX III, 
      9 		MicroVAX 3600/3800/3900, MicroVAX 3300/3400/3500,
     10 		MicroVAX 2000/VAXstation 2000 and some VAXstation 3100.
     11 
     12 	Networking:
     13 		DEUNA/DELUA Unibus ethernet, DEQNA/DELQA Q22 bus ethernet
     14 		and LANCE chip where available.
     15 
     16 	Serial lines:
     17 		DHU11/DHV11/DL11/DLV11/DZ11/DZQ11/DZV11 Unibus/Q22 bus
     18 		asynchronous lines and DZ11-compatible lines on 
     19 		VAXstations.
     20 
     21 	Disks:
     22 		UDA50 Unibus MSCP controller, KDA50/RQDX1/2/3 Q22 bus
     23 		MSCP controller, KDB50 BI-bus MSCP controller, MFM and
     24 		SCSI controllers on VAXstations, RP04/05/06/07 and
     25 		RM02/03/05/80 Massbus disks, and Console RL02 on 
     26 		VAX 8600. Some third-party controllers are also
     27 		known to work, other do not.
     28 
     29 	Tapes:
     30 		TMSCP on Q22 bus (TK50/70), SCSI tapes on VAXstations.
     31 
     32 The minimal configuration requires 2M of RAM and ~40MB of disk space,
     33 but the installation requires at least 4MB RAM and you probably do
     34 not want to run with anything less than that.
     35 
     36 Here is a table of recommended HD partition sizes for a full install:
     37 	partition:	advise		needed
     38 	root (/)	20M		10M
     39 	user (/usr)	80M		45M
     40 	swap		(2 or 3 * RAM)
     41 	Anything else is up to you!
