NetBSD/mac68k 1.0 runs on several of the older Macintosh computers. 4MB of RAM should be sufficient to boot and the system can probably be squeezed onto a 40MB hard disk by leaving off a package or two. To actually do much compiling or anything more interesting than booting, at least 8MB of RAM and more disk space is recommended. About 50MB will be necessary to install all of the NetBSD 1.0 binary distribution (note that this does not count swap space!). Much more disk space is required to install the source and objects as well (about another 105MB). Supported models: Mac II Mac IIx Mac IIcx Mac IIci Mac SE/30 Supported devices on all of the above systems include: Internal SCSI bus and most SCSI tapes, hard drives, and CD-ROMs Internal sound--enough to beep, anyway Most basic NuBUS video cards (there have been some problems with some 24-bit color cards) Both internal serial ports ADB keyboards and mice Some systems will boot and are usable from an external terminal (serial tty or SL/IP): Mac IIsi Mac IIvx possibly others What isn't supported, but often asked about: Ethernet cards. There is a driver that is very close to working for a number of cards. Contributions are very welcome. 68040-based Macs. Work is in progress on getting a Quadra 700 running. This requires a new scsi driver and a new ethernet driver.
