.Nx*M
\*V will run on the 25 MHz 68040-based
.Tn NeXT
workstations.
The Turbo (33 MHz) models are not supported.
The 68030 model is not supported.
.Nx*M
\*V does not
have any local disk support, so you must netboot and run diskless.
.Pp
The minimum configuration requires 4 MB of RAM and a network server
capable of netbooting
.Nx*M .
Serial consoles are poorly supported by the hardware, see the FAQ for help.
Typically it is just easier to use the NeXT monitor and keyboard.
