A little information about this machine
lilith is an Amiga 1200 that has been in constant service since 1995, which
means it has executed somewhere between 3 and 4 x 10^16 instructions to date.
lilith is equipped with a phase5 Blizzard 1260 with 60 MHz m68060, Blizzard
SCSI IV module (DMA Fast SCSI-2), 256 megs of memory, and a Seagate 500 gig IDE
drive on an Acard SCSI-IDE adapter. It has painstakingly been built into a
1U rackmount case with a 100 Mbps PCMCIA ethernet, a scandoubler
(which provides 31 kHz video at all times for use with regular
monitors), a keyboard port, audio/video out (hey, you never know!), cool LEDs,
a CompactFlash to IDE adapter to boot the kernel off of a 2 gig CF card,
and lots of fancy wiring and mounting to get everything to fit as planned.

This machine will be the server in a distributed package building system I am working on
with a number of other people in the NetBSD community. This will help many of the ports which
generally do not have fast machines by distributing the package building chores over the Internet
to many volunteers. Please contact me if you would like more information or if you'd like to help.
