[geeks] WTD: Sun Ultra 1 (or2)

[Shawn Wallbridge]

I have many SPARC's running OpenBSD, but no Ultra's. I have a AXi board with
a single 440MHz Ultra that I _really_ want to run OpenBSD on, but I need it
to be stable. If not, I will have to run Debian.

I would love if OpenBSD had SMP support in 6 months, but I REALLY doubt it.
I haven't been following it for THAT long (2.4), but SMP has never seemed to
be a priority. I just live with it and run Debian on my Dual's.

I run openbsd on a sparc ipx :)

It's not the fastest machine on earth, but its a lot faster running
openbsd than solaris!

A note, OpenBSD does NOT do smp, and doesnt look like it will for at
least six more months.
