My LCII is going into single user mode fine. Almost every thing
fails after that. See:

http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=openbsd-mac68k&m=108050528810893&w=2

Since then, I got myself an Asenté MCLC 10BaseT PDS Ethernet card
with empty FPU socket.

This seems to add an ae0 ethernet card at nubus0. 

Now I'm looking into getting an Motorola 68882 PLCC FPU.

Does anyone knows if I have to limit myself to a 16MHz FPU? Would
a 25 or 33MHz automatically step back to 16MHz and do the job right?

And where do someone buys one nowadays? They almost laught at me
at my used mac store here when I asked about 68k stuff.
