- Where did you read about this? This is pure nonsense.
- I have but this fine PROTO-Chip, and i run NetBSd since the
- beginning, never encountered problems.

- The ONLY problem which may occure is that some drives (!) do not like
- to be enabled to the sync mode, which the PROTO does not handle
- properly. Again: this depends on the drives you are using, and
- the kludges in the kernel.
-
- Dear FAQ-writers: add that netBSd runs fine with the PROTO-Chip.
