A local sales-critter says the fpa is usable. However, it isn't recognised on boot-up, (as in the boot message: fpa0 at virtual e0000000) nor does there seem to be any support for the fpa in the (old sun3) /usr/etc/fpa directory. Is there any way to use this board in a 4/280, or should we pull it and try to barter with it? Thanks. Jim Hudgens hudgens@nu.cs.fsu.edu hudgens@ray.met.fsu.edu
