      So here's a random thought. Are there any 32 or 64-bit platforms where doesn't run? I mean anything where at least a few thousand were produced. I'm not expecting Netbsd for CRAY, but I'm curious what's missing for the list of supported platforms.

            Baking my next project, a thread...
            [Edit - fixed attachment]

            I've said somewhere I want to run NetBSD on a . Now obviously that's not actually possible, but I should be able to do the next best thing - run it on a 286 upgraded to a 486SLC!

            But wait, most 286es only support 4MB RAM, although the ol' chum of a chip supports a whopping 16MB. So I have to find a motherboard that can do this.

            Thing is, I already have one. See picture. But it's currently occupied doing very important Enterprisy stuff - it runs IBM OS/2 1.3 Extended Edition..but at least I know what I need!

              I had on another 286 for a while, and there's some 16-bit "port" of Linux that is not as old as it should be. And of course the venerable OS/2 1.x, and a few actual variants as you point out. I didn't know about V6on286, that's a beautiful little nugget, thank you!

              All of those things are absolutely wonderful and make many of todays software developers look ... spoiled? What I want, however - and what I love doing - is making this old hardware do stuff its makers never dreamt of, things that are as far removed from their time as possible. That's why I will, if permits, run bleeding edge BSD on a 286-on-486steroids, and why I run web+ftp+irc servers (yes, multitaskign) on one 286 and multiple BBS nodes on a 386 - like one used to do, of course.

              I cannot state often enough how amazing it is that there's still software developed today that will work under such constraints.

                Another issue is that the only way to stop dtrace is to kill -9 it, which takes the watched process with it in the fall..

                  It takes about 80 minutes to boot, and 2-3 minutes to login on a serial console.

                  It's effectively unusable, but was an interesting exercise to get up and running. Ah well, back to .

It has room for improvement when it comes to string parsing efficiency, but it's probably going to wipe the floor with anything else out there .. if not, please let me know - my 486 is sweating, as is this machine (the ppro) since I just posted from it a minute ago! :D
