Models
There are a couple of different models of the sun3, only some of them are fully supported by Linux.
- Sun3/50
- Sun3/60
- Sun3/1xx
- Sun3/2xx

Userland
The Sun3 is a special case as it needs a modified userland and can't run a userland compiled for the other Linux supported m68k machines like the old Macintosh, Atari and Amigas. The reason for this is the custom MMU design limits the virtual memory address space to 28-bits and generic Linux m68k binaries won't work as they are linked to an address far above what 28-bits can provide.
