 NetBSD/sun3 is the port of NetBSD to the Sun Microsystems sun3, and sun3x series of computers, which are based on the Motorola [68020](http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=MC68020) and [68030](http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=MC68030) CPUs respectively, with a Sun-designed custom MMU. Sun sold these computers as both servers and desktop workstations from the mid to late 1980's. They were superseded by the sun4 SPARC RISC systems, which are supported by NetBSD as [NetBSD/sparc](/ports/sparc).  NetBSD/sun3 is the port of NetBSD to the [Sun Microsystems](http://www.sun.com/)

 The RAM column is maximum supported RAM in megabytes.  
   
 Sun made a variety of VME bus cabinets with different numbers of bus slots; ultimate RAM and I/O expansion is more a matter of how many bus slots there, rather than the particular CPU you have.  
   
 The Sun3/80 RAM capacity varies with the boot ROM revision - 3.0.2 allows 40MB, 3.0.3 allows 64MB.  
   
 The Sun 3/50 has 4MB soldered on the motherboard; all RAM expansions for that workstation were provided by third-party solutions (read "hacks") of one kind or another.  
   
 The Sun 3/E is a 6U VME single-board computer intended as an embedded system component.  
   
 The Sun 3/80 workstation and Sun 3/400 series servers are sun3x architecture machines based on the [Motorola 68030 CPU](http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=MC68030). They were Sun's last design using Motorola microprocessors, and were somewhat complicated by the fact that the mc68030 has an integrated MMU in the CPU chip.  
   
 Sun Microsystems stopped designing systems with Motorola microprocessors when their own SPARC CPU design became a commercial success.

   </h4>  
                 <p> The LANCE revision C chips used in  
                     some sun3s (not the sun3x) have a bug which sometimes results in garbage  
                     inserted where the first bits should be, with the correct bits shifted later. So  
                     instead of the destination MAC address at the beginning, you get something  
                     random looking. </p>  
                 <p> The workaround is to examine the beginning of the packet and throw away  
                     anything that's not for us (my MAC or broadcast). Unfortunately this prevents  
                     the use of multicast. </p>  
                 <p> The LANCE Rev. C chip was probably only used in the 3/50, so on other sun3  
                     machines you should be able to <a class="ulink" href="../../docs/kernel/#how_to_build_a_kernel" target="_top">build a

   </h4>  
                 <p>  
                     This message is a symptom of a bug in the  
                     esp driver on diskless systems. The ESP (Emulex SCSI Processor) driver in  
                     NetBSD/sun3x has a bug that causes it to enter an endless loop when it probes an  
                     empty SCSI bus. To work around this problem, use a kernel which does not have  
                     the esp device driver, or plug in at least one powered SCSI device into the bus.</p>

                 <p> NetBSD/Sun3 features extensive binary compatibility with SunOS 4.1.x  
                     programs. Static SunOS executables will run without any extra setup. </p>  
                 <p> To run dynamic executables, you'll need to provide the dynamic libraries that  
                     came with your SunOS installation. SunOS programs that will  
                     <span class="emphasis"><em>not</em></span> work include those that use the SunOS kvm library,  
                     certain (low-level) disk manipulation utilities, and programs making explicit

 <a name="boot-devices"></a>Booting SCSI devices at different targets (<a href="#general">top</a>)  
   </h4>  
                 <p> All sun3 and sun3x monitors support booting from SCSI devices. Most users  
                     will be familiar with booting from the monitor device <code class="code">sd(0,0,0)</code>,  
                     which they know means booting the SCSI disk at target zero. However, determining  
                     the monitor device name for booting an arbitrary SCSI device can be confusing. </p>  
                 <p> A monitor boot device takes the form  
                         <span class="emphasis"><em>dev</em></span><code class="code">(</code><span class="emphasis"><em>cntrl</em></span><code class="code">,</code><span class="emphasis"><em>unit</em></span><code class="code">,</code><span class="emphasis"><em>part</em></span><code class="code">)</code>.  
                         <span class="emphasis"><em>dev</em></span> is two letters, and <span class="emphasis"><em>cntrl</em></span>,  
                         <span class="emphasis"><em>unit</em></span>, and <span class="emphasis"><em>part</em></span> are hexadecimal  
                     numbers. </p>  
                 <p> For SCSI disks and CD-ROMs, <span class="emphasis"><em>dev</em></span> is <code class="code">sd</code>. For  
                     SCSI tapes, <span class="emphasis"><em>dev</em></span> is <code class="code">st</code>. </p>  
                 <p> For all SCSI devices, <span class="emphasis"><em>cntrl</em></span> is the number of the SCSI  
                     controller the device is attached to. For a machine with a single SCSI  
                     controller, <span class="emphasis"><em>cntrl</em></span> is <code class="code">0</code>. </p>  
                 <p> For all SCSI devices, <span class="emphasis"><em>unit</em></span> identifies the SCSI target  
                     and logical unit number of the device. Exactly how the SCSI target and logical  
                     unit number are combined into the single number <span class="emphasis"><em>unit</em></span>  
                     depends on your machine type and ROM revision, and whether or not the device is  
                     a disk, CD-ROM, or tape. Use the tables below to figure out how  
                     <span class="emphasis"><em>unit</em></span> works on your machine. </p>  
                 <p> For SCSI disks and CD-ROMs, <span class="emphasis"><em>part</em></span> selects the partition  
                     to boot on that disk or CD-ROM. The first partition is <code class="code">0</code>, the  
                     second partition is <code class="code">1</code>, etc. Normally, <span class="emphasis"><em>part</em></span> is  
                         <code class="code">0</code>, since the first partition on a disk is usually the bootable  
                     one. Common exceptions are booting a miniroot that has been written to the swap  
                     partition, in which case <span class="emphasis"><em>part</em></span> is <code class="code">1</code>, or booting  
                     a CD-ROM that contains different bootable partitions for different  
                     architectures, in which case you have to know which partition boots your  
                     architecture. </p>  
                 <p> For SCSI tapes, <span class="emphasis"><em>part</em></span> selects the tape segment (also  
                     called "tape file") to boot. The first tape segment is <code class="code">0</code>, the  
                     second tape segment is <code class="code">1</code>, etc. You will need to know which tape  
                     segment is bootable for your architecture in order to give the right  
                         <span class="emphasis"><em>part</em></span>. </p>  
                 <p> Finally, these are the tables that demonstrate how <span class="emphasis"><em>unit</em></span>  
                     works on various machines. They list <code class="code">sd</code> monitor devices for disks  
                     and CD-ROMs, and <code class="code">st</code> monitor devices for tapes, all at different  
                     SCSI targets. These tables assume that you want the first SCSI controller  
                         <code class="code">0</code>, and the first partition or first tape segment  
                     <code class="code">0</code>. Also, because many Sun 3 models use the same CPU board, to keep  
                     these tables simple Sun's CPU board code names are used wherever possible. </p>

                 <p> The above tables also assume that you want SCSI logical unit number zero. The  
                     SCSI specification allows one SCSI target to contain different logical units  
                     (also called LUNs). Virtually no SCSI devices make use of this feature, and have  
                     only a single LUN, zero. However, if you know you have a disk at a LUN other  
                     than zero (early Sun SCSI disk setups do), you can add the LUN number to the  
                         <span class="emphasis"><em>unit</em></span> value, noting that <span class="emphasis"><em>unit</em></span> is a  
                     hexadecimal number. </p>

 <a name="sun3x-history"></a>History of NetBSD/sun3x (<a href="#general">top</a>)  
   </h4>  
                 <p> The sun3x port of NetBSD was initiated by two independent groups of  
                     developers. The first group, headed by Gordon Ross and Jeremy Cooper, began work  
                     in March of 1996 with the (then) current sun3 port and the intent to create a  
                     new pmap system that was not based on the hp300 m68k code. Their work is the  
                     officially supported version of NetBSD/sun3x. </p>  
                 <p> The second group, headed by Tsubai Masanari, also began with the sun3  
                     distribution but instead choose to use the traditional hp300 m68k pmap. This  
                     approach allowed them to get a fully running system in a matter of weeks. They  
                     were the first to successfully integrate the SPARC Enhanced SCSI Processor  
                     driver into the kernel, proving that the Sun3x was indeed half SPARC, half Sun3. </p>  
                 <p> Although the currently supported NetBSD/sun3x is based on Gordon and Jeremy's  
                     work, they are indebted to the second group for their innovation. </p>  
                 <p> Between NetBSD 1.3 and 1.4 NetBSD/sun3x was merged into NetBSD/sun3. They  
                     build separate kernels, but share the same userland, and kernel build tree.
