Even older aparently.

Bootup looks like this...

I would suppose that that is what one would call 'SunOS 3.4', but I have
no idea.

If you have one for this rev, let me know.

Hmmm...Somehow I doubt that there was a SunOS 5.x/Solaris 2.x for m68k.

Btw, if someone wants to take a look at the connectors on the rear of that
Clearpoint card, I believe theres a very fuzzy picture of it with the rest
of the 3/260 cardcage in the 260/ directory at http://www.auk.cx/sun3/pics/)

Of course, I'm sure the pictures there will only serve to prove Tony right
about the uselessness of pictures in general :)
