If you have an XP1000 (or DS20 or DS10 or DP264) that you've been itching to try FreeBSD on, give this snapshot a whirl. The only DEC_ST6600 platform I that have access to is the xp1000, so I'd appreciate hearing from owners of other ST6600 boxes (DS20, DS10 or DP264) who try this. Also, XFree86 requires a few patches that are still up in the air. Contact me to obtain them before attempting to run X on one of these boxes.
