Hi,

a few questions:

1 - how does a 715/50 boot over a network? Probably not bootp...
2 - what is the maximum size of memory(module) (8 slots) supported in =
the 715/50? And what does Linux support?
3 - What does the TOC button do????
4 - Linux reports SCSI-Clock of 50MHz, this is probably wrong, right?
5 - I am willing to write a fb-driver, but can't find any specs of the =
graphics adapter..
6 - Is someone (thinking of) porting ld.so??
7 - Is it possible to use an ext2fs partition as root?

phew that's it.
