A VAX 6610 is rolling toward my garage ...

Hehe, there goes the last VAX out of my workplace, and right into my garage. And its a 6610! That means I will need to add in a few processors, but there is my NVAX. Much work is before me. I should get Ultrix 4.2 ported to it starting with the 6000-400 files. It can't be so hard after the 6000-500 runs... We'll see. Does anyone have the processor internal registers for the KA66A? With some luck we can drop in just a very small set of kernel files that can be reused under Ultrix 4.5 binary. For NetBSD it will be a little harder to replicate all the missing stuff. I think I will want to set up a fast cross compiling or native VAX box for that first. That also means that a 6400 will become free on relatively short notice. This one goes to Micheal McCabe, if he wants it (?) I am a bit reluctant yet to convert the 6400 to a -600 so quickly after I barely set it up. I guess I will take some time to actually do the conversion. But in a matter of 4 weeks after I took her home, I should probably get rid of that extraneous then 64x0 cabinet. (the 'x' depends a little on how I will distribute all the CPUs.) Also, there are the XMI and VAXBI backplanes (with some defect, but certainly not everything on both of them) free for the taking. They aren't claimed yet and that means I will decompose those shortly. cheers, -Gunther -- Gunther Schadow, M.D., Ph.D. gschadow(a)regenstrief.org Medical Information Scientist Regenstrief Institute for Health Care Adjunct Assistant Professor Indiana University School of Medicine tel:1(317)630-7960 http://aurora.regenstrief.org
