[SPARCbook] RE: [SunRescue] NetBSD 1.5 CDROM

[Ken Hansen]

I guess once I bolt in my new CD-RW in my PC I'll have to try the .iso
image. One other question - heat/power management, are they addressed in
NetBSD 1.5 for a SPARCbook?

Thanks again,

Ken

Yeah, I have it on mine and it works just fine. I was previously running
the June 20th development snapshot (which had a few problems), but this is
an altogether much better arrangement of NetBSD. Nice and quick.

I highly recommend it. My only caveat is that I prefer OpenBSD over
NetBSD, and I wish OpenBSD had better SPARCbook support, but all in all-
IT ROCKS!
