Just want to let you all know that I have started looking into getting bsd 
running on alpha systems without srm. I own a xl300 myself so will work on
that one. I also have a as400 as a 'reference model'.

I will use FreeBSD because I have more experience on that than on the
other bsd's.
However, most work will be needed in the loader and not so much in the OS.
So if I might succeed, getting it done for the other bsd's should be
trivial.

My goal is to first get a kernel running on a modified milo and after that
to create a selfhosted bsd loader.

If someone has help or advice for me, I would be pleased to get that.
There is quit some information in all the archives and I will use that as
a lead.

Mark
