Welcome! We all were newbies once, so we don't mind.
I got this old Umax (Apus 3000) clone which I've undusted and want to
be doing something with it. Through all my reading I know I want one
of the *bsd flavours on there, my preference being openbsd.
OpenBSD hasn't had a lot of work on the Mac platforms. They derived their work from NetBSD though, which is supported on a wide range of 68k and PPC models.
Has anyone installed any of the *bsd flavours on this type of
machine? If so, what are your experiences?
I've not tried BSD on PPC, but have on 68k, and like it. I've used YDL on a Power Computing clone, and that worked well.
Can these *bsd flavours indeed use some cheap PC PCI cards? Any
experiences?
Others have addressed this already.
