But, I am not really familiar with the HP-9000 so someone could well be doing something with it I do not know. It appears that they offer Linux on it as well as HPUX, so it would probably be possible to create a FreeBSD that would run on it.It kind of looks like the 9000 series might be a follow-on product to the Convex Systems that HP bought a few years ago to be their High Performance offerings and those systems ran a version of UNIX that was more BSD based. You might have some exciting times doing the port for it... jerry > > Kind Regards, > > Dennis Slingerland > The Netherlands > ___ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
