[SunRescue] Free crap to good home

Sorry that what I have to give isn't more exciting, but
we're still using a SPARC 2 as a Kerberos server
and another for an OpenBSD box, so the stuff I'm
getting rid of is *really* old or underpowered.
Some things that I won't even bother putting up on
eBay, but which can be had for the cost of shipping:
1. One CG6 SBus video card
2. One SM100 MBus module (Sun dropped support
as of Solaris 2.6, but you can either
patch the Solaris kernel or run an alternate
OS--this one ran fine under Debian
SPARCLinux until I pulled it.)
3. One SM20 MBus module (which of course can't
be used in dual-processor mode and will
only function in appropriate models of
SPARC 10s--unless you have a SPARC 10
with no processor, you probably don't
want this.)
4. One SPARC 1 carcass-no NVRAM, hard disk,
or floppy. Pretty much has the power
supply, motherboard, PROM, and the
little speakery thing. Top half of case is
actually from a SPARC 2 and has
some cracks which prevent it from being
screwed down, but it's still stackable.
5. Two floppy drive mounts (330-1242) for sun4c
pizzabox (1/1+/2) systems--got these as
part of a mixed-up order which was
later made good and the seller didn't
want them back.
Let me know if anyone's interested in anything, or
I'll probably put the SBus/MBus stuff together as
a lot on eBay and see if the price for SM100s
goes up to $60 again due to non-clueful bidding...
but I'd rather not have anyone thinking they're
getting a dual Ross HyperSPARC...
