That's why
I was thinking of addressing multiple busses. Not only that, I
want to maintain compatibility with existing devices.
I don't recall who at the moment...but there's some company
somewhere who makes a PCI-Qbus bridge, and maybe a Unibus one as
well. The idea is to use a pdp11 emulator on a crappy PeeCee and be
able to connect your DEC peripherals to it. I would love to see NetBSD/alpha drivers for that
board...I'd put an
RL02 (or maybe an RK07!) on one my Alphas! 8-)
Or even NetBSD/sparc64. An RK07 on an Ultra Enterprise. That would be
truly bizarre.
