Hello,

You want to try to install NetBSD on this one..
Hmm.. the machine dosent boot up at all. Not even logos such as HCL or
any such thing. People on ILUGC said, it'll prompt asking for what to
boot from. I havent got anything like that yet. So, its a long way to
loading some other OS on it.
By the way, once it boots up, I'll be putting GNU/Linux on it. Most
probably debian potato. I've read some of the links you posted and
looks like potato was successful on it.
- There is a FPU emulation package (not reliable)
or you also need a 68881 or 68882 coprocessor also.
Yeah.. both the cpu boards have a co-processor with them. So, a
emulation package is not needed.
Cheers,
Joe
