Hi,
i have a handful of PPC/MCA RS/6000 Machines around -

Model 250 - PPC 601 66&80 Mhz, 2 MCA Slots, PizzaBox.
Model (C20/C10) - PPC 601 or 604 depending on the CPU Module and ~4-5 MCA Slots
Minitower.

Is there anyone working on a port ? As i already read these machines
are REALLY different from the later PPC/PCI machines and from the former
Power/MCA machines.

Does anyone have Hardware documentation available or got those
beasts to boot anything else than an AIX Kernel ?

BTW: Did anyone notice that the AIX 3.2.5 kernel do have symbols - I
was a bit astonished to see some quiet informational output
when doing an objdump with an "ppc-ibm-aix" objdump.
