How old are your RM400/10s?
I have an 8 years old RM400/05 here are I would really like to get
Linux running on it.
Here are some technical data:
Siemens RM400/05,
Processor: MIPS R3000A + R3010A Coproc
32MB RAM
2x1,5GB Harddisk,
Floppy,
some strange Kind of Streamer,
SCSI onboard, Differential SCSI support (could be NCR 52C200)
Ethernet onboard (Intel Ethernet chipset, i guess)
(see chip list below)
7 ISA Slots
The problem is, I have _no_ documentation on the hardware,
I have only the docu that comes with a SINIX V5.41 B 10
system CDROM.
Therefore, please accept my apologies for the rather long
chip list below, perhaps somebody can identify some of the
components and tell me if they can be supported by Linux/MIPS.
Thanks,
Florian
