That is an ARC machine with MIPS CPU. There are some different models.
AFAIK a early EISA (?) and a later PCI (?) machine (RM200C?) and ???
There is a Linux port that runs on some variants of the RM200 but it
seams to be unmaintained for some time. Maybe there is a WinNT for it...
NetBSD doesn't run on it. As NetBSD already supports some MIPS/ARC
machines it would be not that hard to port. Native OS is Sinix and that
is what I would try to get and run on it.
