[buildd] It's finally here!



Oh well... 

it took nearly two years until that specific machine arrived yesterday -
finally! :) 

It's an Amiga 4000 in a Micronik tower case (same as Crest, IIRC) with a
Cyberstorm I 060/50 with just 48 MB RAM at the moment and SCSI module. 
There's a Hydra v1.1 NIC as well, which means that there's no TwistedPair
connector, but I hope I can get a AUI transceiver soon. 

Although I've some spare SCSI disks, there's an IDE interface as well, but
IIRC IDE was always terribly slow on Amiga, so I guess using SCSI would be
better. 
I don't might have enough PS/2 RAM modules, though. 48 MB ought to be enough
to install/setup the machine, but for running a buildd, I would need 4x 32
MB modules. Unfortunately a quick check revealed that there is no PS/2 RAM
in stock at the online shops I checked in Germany. 

Anyway, I'll continue setting the machine up as a buildd.
