Not sure of the memory, will need to look that up.
I wonder what the memory requirements are for early SunOS versions? -
certainly SunOS 4 ran in 4M on a sun3/50, but it didn't really have a
huge amount of headroom left :)
If you do find some more memory & are inclined I'd love to see what
NetBSD makes of the machine :-p
I do have a sun 2 keyboard, I wonder if it is a
possibility to connect it to the bwtwo video board exclusively for the keyboard use, while
maintaining the bwone video board at the same time for video use.
Theoretically it must be possible - certainly most sun's were happy
setting the console display to a bitmapped display and keyboard to a
serial (terminal). The the only question is does the PROM support this
particular variant...
