Consolidating Documentation for older hardware

Consolidating Documentation for older hardware

[chase rayfield]

As you may no many of the documents hosted on Oracle/Sun's network and
Tadpole have gone offline and are not hosted anywhere online.

I am archiving them locally so I can host them. If anyone sees a doc I
don't have yet or would like to share docs they are unable to host so
I can host them please email me the document or a link.

I'm mostly looking for 32bit sun hardware docs... but I'll archive
anything Sparc related!

I'm currently stashing everything at http://gh0stwriter.net/archive/ I
may sort things later on though. I just finished archiving
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/documentation/legacy-solaris-192993.html
tonight so... anything that can be found there I'll archive myself no
need to mention those docs. I'd also appreciate if you only download
docs you can't otherwise find as the box this is hosted on has limited
bandwidth.

@Sam Ravenborg I believe you have a copy of "Sun-4M System
Architecture (revision 2.0) by Chuck Narad " would you mind sending me
that?

Thanks,
Chase Rayfield

I've got service manuals for the following machines:
 - SparcStation 10
 - SparcStation LX
 - Ultra 1
 - Ultra 5
and almost all the Ultra 1 and Ultra 5 related documents I could grab
before it all went down.

I can't really host this myself (no hosting out in the real world and
my home internet connection is slow) but if any of it's useful to you,
I'll stick it on Mega or DropBox or something.

Thanks,

Hello Chase

I have collected many documents about SparcStations and 32bits Sparcs.
Some came from the late Sun "FOSS Open Hardware Documentation" webpage, 
some from datasheet search engines, from sparc.org ...
I do not remember the origin of each document, but I am 100% sure that they were
all once freely downloadable.

Copied there, need to be better organised :
temlib.org/pub/SparcStation

(I may have a few more files of lesser interest around...)

Olivier
