Hello all :)
All this talking has woke me up :)
> * Support DSSI storage on QBus VAXen.
One of the reasons why i can use my VAX 4300 only with netboot (tried that several years ago with NetBSD).
But netbooting isn't so much fun so i decided against a UNIX Environment and put VMS back on it
which is not my personal favorite. And with VMS on it i lost interest in my VAX. With a real Linux i could
imagine that i'm gonna use it a bit again.

My VAX 4300 has 128mb ram. Isn't that enough for the CPU Power it has?
