 I looked at the Berkeley repository last night, and did not
 see some files required to run Sprite directly from disk --
 for instance, the Sparc bootimage (sun4.bt or so) seems to
 be missing, or I'm overlooking it, in my coffein-deprived
 state of mind.

 Come to think of it.. I do have a few Sparc 2 machines, with
 a few improvements (like 128MB RAM, Weitek PowerUp), and would
 like to give Sprite a spin. I'm all for adding the Sprite ISO
 to the archive!

Let me be confused, and note that a DECstation is not a SPARCstation.
