New mac68k snap is up on the FTP servers, dated Dec. 25. X is still out of wack. Don't bother with that right now. However, the bsd.rd fresh install has been tested, should be no library issues. In addition to my long-time faithful Quadra 610 and 650, Quadra 840AV and Centris 660AV have been tested and are now very operational (though the AVs still have "some" issues, namely intermittent ADB problems). mc(4) (the on-board NIC on the AVs) now works pretty well, NuBus on the AVs does not. bsd.rd has been tested with as little as 12M of RAM (8M was tested, but found insufficient). (side note: when testing for minimal RAM, don't forget to return the system to "production" levels before trying to make a snapshot, took me a while to figure out why the thing was so freaking slow...I can report that a kernel can be built with 12M and a lot of patience!) Good work, Martin, Miod, Claudio and everyone else who has been bringing this platform back up to speed! Nick. -- http://www.holland-consulting.net
