! 51: The LUNA workstation family was manufactured by
! 52: <a href="http://www.omron.com">OMRON corporation</a> in the early 1990s.
! 53: After several models based upon the Motorola 680x0 family,
! 54: the last designs were multiprocessor systems based upon the
! 55: Motorola 88100 processor.
! 56: </p>
! 57:
! 58: <p>
! 59: Kenji Aoyama wanted to run a modern operating system on his LUNA-88K2 and
! 60: eventually got tired of waiting for someone else to do this effort, so he
! 61: started to merge the
! 62: <a href="http://www.netbsd.org/Ports/luna68k/">NetBSD/luna68k</a> device
! 63: support with the
! 64: <a href="mvme88k.html">OpenBSD/mvme88k</a> hardware support in January 2002.
! 65: His efforts were eventually successfull and his machine booted multi-user near
! 66: the end of 2003.

! 74: Currently, only the LUNA-88K2 is known to work, although the LUNA-88K should
! 75: be supported as well.

! 77:
! 78: <p>
! 79: The system is booting multi-user, and supports most of the on-board devices,
