2 1.2.2.1 cgd
3 1.2.2.1 cgd NetBSD/x68k _VER runs on the Sharp X68030 series PCs with TRUE
4 1.1 oki MC68030 MPU (not MC68EC030) and FPU. Since the processor of
5 1.2 oki the X68030 series is MC68EC030, you need to replace it with
6 1.2 oki MC68030 (Simply remove the old chip and put the new one instead.
7 1.1 oki instead. The largest difficulty might be to open your X68030).
8 1.1 oki
9 1.1 oki In addition, some accelerators are supported:
10 1.1 oki
11 1.2 oki Xellent30 series
12 1.1 oki 040turbo
13 1.1 oki Jupiter-X (040 / 060)
14 1.2.2.1 cgd 060turbo
15 1.1 oki
16 1.1 oki This means all models of X680x0 series PC except for CZ-600C
17 1.1 oki and CZ-674C, by using the appropriate accelerator, can run NetBSD!!
18 1.2 oki Note that the processor of Xellent30 series is MC68EC030, so
19 1.1 oki you need to replace your processor as well as for X68030.
20 1.1 oki
21 1.2.2.1 cgd The minimal configuration requires 4M of RAM and about 80M of
22 1.1 oki disk space. To install the entire system requires much more disk space,
23 1.1 oki and to run X or compile the system, more RAM is recommended.
24 1.1 oki
25 1.1 oki Here is a table of recommended HD partition sizes for a full install:
26 1.1 oki partition: advise, with X, needed, with X
27 1.2.2.1 cgd root (/) 20M 20M 15M 15M
28 1.2.2.1 cgd user (/usr) 95M 125M 75M 105M
29 1.1 oki swap ----- 2M for every M ram -----
30 1.1 oki local (/local) up to you
31 1.1 oki
32 1.1 oki As you may note the recommended size of /usr is 20M greater than
33 1.1 oki needed. This is to leave room for a kernel source and compile tree
34 1.1 oki as you will probably want to compile your own kernel. (ALL is
35 1.1 oki large and bulky to accommodate all people).
36 1.1 oki
37 1.1 oki Supported devices include:
38 1.1 oki - Sharp genuine SCSI interface (builtin / optional)
39 1.1 oki * SCSI harddisks, CD-ROM drives, tape drives, scanners,...
40 1.2.2.1 cgd - Mankai Seisakusho Mach-2 SCSI interface
41 1.1 oki - The builtin floppy drives
42 1.1 oki - The builtin frame buffer (both of the text and graphics screen)
43 1.1 oki - The builtin serial (RS-232C)
44 1.1 oki - The builtin parallel (Centronics printer interface)
45 1.1 oki - The standard keyboard
46 1.1 oki - The mouse / trackball
47 1.1 oki - NS16550 serial
48 1.1 oki - Neptune-X ethernet
49 1.1 oki
50 1.2.2.1 cgd Hopefully, the AD-PCM sound device will be supported on the next
51 1.2.2.1 cgd release.
52 1.2.2.2 cgd
53 1.2.2.2 cgd IMPORTANT NOTE: Xellent users *MUST* change the address map setting
54 1.2.2.2 cgd for it from the default ($ECC000 - $ECFFFF) before installation. This
55 1.2.2.2 cgd is because the default address conflicts with the Neptune-X ethernet
56 1.2.2.2 cgd interface, and the Neptune driver is confused by it. All the settings
57 1.2.2.2 cgd other than the default are ok. Once you installed NetBSD, and configured
58 1.2.2.2 cgd your own kernel, you can restore the setting.
