Subject: Operating Systems and the M68K based boards
Hello!
Do any of you have any favorites when it comes to running an OS on all
of your M68K based boards? I am leaning towards Linux, but the one I
do have here, (and I have yet to track down the particulars for) I
believe it won't work properly on it. NetBSD comes close, followed by
that all time favorite of some, CP/M-68K.

Hi Gregg,
I use mostly Motorola OSs System V68 versions R3V4 to R3V8
I have tested OpenBSD and NetBSD just to see they run.
I have never tested the Linux version for MVME 68k.

With System V68 You must have a compatible disk drive for installer to
identify.
With SCSI it may not be necessary.

I have a lot of Motorola 68k systems and software.
Unfortunatelly after my last move I have had too little time with
them.

If You need any help please email.
BR,
Matti
