Hi Guys !
Check this out:
http://netbsd.org/ports/x68k/ (http://netbsd.org/ports/x68k/)
Are there any brave souls who's hardware is compatible with this beast ?
Supported System Models:
It is necessary to install Xellent30 or Jupiter-X MPU accelerator for X68000 series.
040turbo and 060turbo are also supported for X68030.
X68030/X68030HD
X68030compact/X68030compactHD
X68000XVI/X68000XVI HD
X68000SUPER/X68000SUPER HD
X68000EXPERT/X68000EXPERT HD
X68000PRO/X68000PRO HD
X68000ACE/X68000ACE HD
Supported Peripherals:
NetBSD/x68k requires Motorola 680[346]0 processor (with MMU), SCSI board and harddisks, and over 4MByte memory and 100MByte of disk space.
Although the in-kernel FPU emulator can be built into the kernel for 68030-based systems, we recommend to install a FPU.

Am I reading that this will work on my 68030 compact with 12mb ram? Or do I need something else?
You will need a SCSI HDD with 100 MB free space and preferably a 68030 CPU with MMU.

IIRC BSD _requires_ an 030 with an MMU as a minimum.
