Nope- none of the BSD's are supported. Other Alpha platforms, but not this
one. That bastard EISA bus, I guess.

Sorry- moment of weakness <grin>. When people ask me what I do, one answer
is "I'm a bit plumber".

Well a toy only in that I don't have a "production" job slated for it, and I
generally don't like to rely on a box I only have one of; hence my little
fleet of DNS/mail/web servers are IPX/Classic/LX machines, since these are
plentiful and cheap, and usually suitable for the task.
