Date: Fri, 7 Feb 1997 09:42:06 -0500 Organization: Worcester Polytechnic Institute Lines: 8 Message-ID: <Pine.OSF.3.95q.970207093947.3657B-100000@stat.WPI.EDU> NNTP-Posting-Host: stat.wpi.edu Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.netbsd.misc:5320 Our local chapter of ACM (association of COmputer Machinery, a bunch of cs geeks mostly :)) has got ahold of a BBN Butterfly, which contains 32 motorola 68k processors... (68020 I believe) Is running NetBSD on this thing a viable option? I know it's been ported to the 68k architecture... but will it run on a 32 processor machine?
