I have put a kernel, with a loader prepended, at http://people.FreeBSD.org/~tmm/main.gz (~630kB) , some userland binaries at http://people.FreeBSD.org/~tmm/sparc64-dist.tar.gz (~8MB) and some minimal (and probably incomplete) instructions are at http://people.FreeBSD.org/~tmm/README. This will only work on PCI machines which have a firmware version that can load ELF binaries (so, for example, not on Ultra 1 and 2s). Additionally the builtin CMD 646 ATA controller that some boxes have does not yet work; other PCI controllers should hopefully. This includes experimental ATA changes, eeprom code etc., so use at your own risk. - thomas To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-sparc" in the body of the message
