Hi,

I don't know if it's been mentioned, but NetBSD/hp700 seems to be
running ok on the 715/100XC, which has a larger cache than the "normal"
715/100.

At least the XC version is not mentioned explicitly on the hp700 Port
page.

Here's the dmesg output of my machine running the 20020706-1.6D snapshot
with the kernel/bootloader from the 20020905 update:

cpu0: PCX-L (CMOS-26B) floating point, rev 1
[...]

Especially notice the 512K/512K cache size :)) That's more than twice
what my Athlon XP has!


I cannot do a lot, I cannot even change my password ("who are you??")
Also ssh does not seem to start, and to use vi I need to know which
terminal type the framebuffer console uses.

Still, great work, thanks a lot for making this possible.

Any clues as to when a native toolchain will be available?
