DECStation 5000 is a MIPS computer. At the time I had it there was a Mipsel Linux which was in development. That can only be net booted and accessed via NFS. I think this Linux was based on RedHat.

DECstation interests started as an old College Project in 1997 - 1999 times. Another class failed the Ultrix Project due to no installation CDs, this class installed Linux to PCs and left the Decstation in the large Class rooms.

The tutor who taught them (Des Stephens) was another who was in to UNIX, another tutor pointed me his way when learning RedHat Linux 4.1 to 6. FreeBSD 2.2.7 was briefly messed around with on the old AMD 233 32 bit system. 32 Bit operating systems caused these computers to reboot suddenly including on Linux, FreeBSD and Windows NT.

While dealing with the DEC although I couldn't make the Network of these computers. Installed NetBSD via tftp and NFS which was a very big learning curve.
