<h3><a name="intro">Introduction</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>This page contains information about the FreeBSD port to Sun Microsystem's
|
|
UltraSPARC® architecture. UltraSPARC is a
|
|
<a href="&base;/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/committers-guide/archs.html">
|
|
Tier 1</a> architecture, and as such is fully supported by the
|
|
<a href="&base;">FreeBSD</a> project. However, the port
|
|
is not as mature as the existing i386 or alpha ports. Discussion of the
|
|
UltraSPARC port takes place on the
|
|
<a href="http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-sparc64">freebsd-sparc</a>
|
|
mailing list.</p>

support for this SCSI controller. These systems may work with the esp
