Hi Cameron,

Like the LC475, my 520c has the 68LC040 processor, not the full 68040 - I
assume your situation is the same. If I'm wrong, we can set about
installing BSD. Linux will also run on this machine, but from what I read,
the FPU emulation is not reliable yet.
That said, my 520c is currently running 8.X - I don't recall if it's 8.1,
8.5 or 8.6. I don't really use it very often, but if I remember correctly
it seems a little loaded down.
