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