Is anyone playing with NPU's for local #AI ... stuff? I can't call it programming, that feels wrong.
So what do you think of this toy made for RaspberryPi5? It's an AI accelerator that's about 4x slower than AMD Ryzen NPU's, but as usual with RPi it's an affordable starting point if you wish to fool-around with local AI models.
I've got partitions that use all the (valid) blocks I defined in the label, and "newfs -N" suggests it'll create the filesystems of the exact size I specified on the partition map!
Now if I can get the boot blocks out of the old disk, I should just be able to restore the cpio archives I made to the new one, and avoid reinstalling.
Seagate documentation on the ST34572 is lacking in the one place it needs to NOT be lacking (or, more likely, they're making a point that SCSI isn't bound by CHS like SunOS and other "every OS sucks" thing wants it to be)
It only gives the max number of sectors. In HEX!
Before, I spotted "6300" as the number of cyls and "8" as the number of heads, and came up with 178 as the number of sectors.
Trying to make SunOS format it that way resulted in label failure. :o(
