Ultra64 Development Board

See: [url]http://www.schrotthal.de/sgi/ultra64/[/url]

I got my hands on an Indy with an Ultra64 (ie. Nintendo64) Dev. board
(rev 2.0) but the disks on the system have been wiped.

Does anyone have any information about the dev software that these
systems ran?

Does anyone know what the six RJ12 jacks on the back are for? What
about controller input? Cart writing/reading? Are there additional
components that go with this board?

I want to try to put this to some sort of use, any help appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris

[url]http://www.dextrose.com/[/url] is your prime repository for programming N64
and other Nintendo consoles on the net. They got a couple of
UNIX-tools as well.

I've got the official N64 development kit lying around somewhere for
Windows and Irix (around 200MB iirc). If you're in London I can toast
you a CD and you can pick it up.

I have seen that you are selling the guts of that indy in the market
group. If i were you i wouldn't do so. Maybe the ultra board expects
a special indy motherboard or PROM version.

To my knowledge the controllers plug into these ports. But i am not
quite sure as there is another plug that looks more like the original
N64 one (it's been a while since i sold my purple N64 *snief*).

You can find about 2GB of N64 ROM data on the net (at least i have seen
that much) which are rips for all those N64 emulators available. It
should be simple to include it into the development system. Give me your
board and i tell you whether it works or not >;-).
