I can't even imagine trying it on an 11/750, then (max memory would be
14MB, though neither of mine have more than 8).
"Supported" means DEC/Compaq/HP tested it,
"Not Supported" means you're on
your own. :-) ?The largest problem in some of these cases is getting enough
RAM in the box.
And for other cases, it's how large your boot volume is (11/725
w/RC25, uVAX w/RQDX3 and RD54...) With a KDA50/UDA50/KDB50 or (AFAIK)
any SCSI controller that fits your box, disk size becomes irrelevant
(i.e., there's no problem coming up with a couple hundred MB for the
OS).
?Running an unsupported config is likely to be
"painful". :-)
Indeed.
