I think -- with the possible exception of the 725 or 730 if anyone ever made them work, they were very hard to get going even with 4.3! -- the Sun 2/50 is likely the slowest machine that ever ran NetBSD. I don't think we support any 68010-based HP300 models, though I am not entirely sure. Was the Australian machine kre mentioned one of those bizarre dual-68000 designs that ran two CPUs in lockstep to handle non-restartable instructions? I've heard about them but never seen one. Thor
