MIPS ARCSystem

Hi,

I just got a few parts of what seems to be a MIPS machine
of some kind. I'm not sure if it's more a MIPSco or an
ARCS machine, so port-mips seemed right.

I got these parts in a bundle:

MIPS ARCSystem mainboard
MIPS R4000-50SC CPU
passive CPU cooler
four 72pin Toshiba RAM modules
one small daughterboard for the "Ethernet/serial" slot
EISA SCSI Adaptec 2740
ISA SMC ARCNET-PC 600WS
ISA Ethernet Realtek

The rest of the machine including the case, power supply
and graphics board are missing. Now I wonder how to get
this thing to do anything. The CPU was removed, so I had to
reinstall the CPU and it's cooler. That alone was somewhat
difficult, but I think it should be right now. However,
I guess there is some metal missing  to fix the CPU.

The first thing would be a new power supply, but I'm
completely ignorant about the requirements. The connector
looks somewhat like a PC standard AT, but I don't deal with
PCs so often to just try. I don't want to frie the 
machine.
The graphics board slot is something I have never seen

RM200 supported now?

hi & sorry for massive cross-posting,

short question (and i hope to get the longer one of the short answers, 
that consists of three letters: y, e, and s ;) -- is the RM200 
supported...?

the last entry in the mailing lists (from 2002 IIRC) says 'no' as does 
the port's website, but there had been almost two whole years since 
that :)

TIA,

What RM200? Siemens RM200? What particular model of RM200? AFAIK there
are several different models of RM200.

As noted in sys/arch/arc/arc/p_sni_rm200pci.c,
more hardware info is needed.
(com port address, ISA regions, interrupt registers, etc. etc.)

I'll dig them up tomorrow, make a test kernel, and post it.  Let me know if
it works for you -- I don't have any r5k gear, and this sort of thing can't
be written with only remote serial access.

If it works for you, I will commit the changes -- Nishimura-san may bitch,
but he hasn't come up with better code; I'll take running code over theoretical
ivory-tower solutions any day :)

Hmm, my r5k O2 doesn't have any particular problem.
Actually I tested my MEC driver on my r5k O2, so
maybe there are also driver (hpc, wdsc, or something other?)
specific problems.

I'm not sure which patch I use currently, but maybe
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-sgimips/2003/01/06/0001.html
is the first post, but pmap.c should also be fixed, I think.
