that Johnny Billquist has the docs. I think Ragge has
the VAX 6000 hardware and the skills to get NetBSD running on it.
The other question is if Ragge has the time to do this...
Is there any difference between
Laserbus and Turbolaser other than clock
rate? The AS8200/8400 are supported under NetBSD. Would it be possible
to leveredge any of that work for 7000 support? The DEC 7000 has Laserbus? I
thought it has FutureBus+? Or was that the
DEC 4000?

Well, I think
you know that the person in question is Ragge. Maybe
someone should ask about VAX6000 support on port-vax. Maybe there is
somthing going on that I am not aware of.
Ragge has XMI docs? I could use them. I have a VAX6600 and a DS5840 here
that I would like to work NetBSD on.
Just ask Johnny Billquist for a copy?
If the docs are printed versions and shipping acros the pond is too
expensive I am willing to scan the docs if Johnny can send them to
me (Germany). I have a scanner with ADF that already scaned the
KA680 Technical Manual...
I thought it was VAX 7000 support that was on hold?
I think there was never any sort of effort of getting NetBSD on the VAX
7000 / DEC 7000 due to very undocumented hardware.
