22: OpenBSD/beagle is an experimental port of OpenBSD to the BeagleBoard systems
23: with a OMAP3530 and DM3730 chips using an ARM Cortex-A8 CPU.
24:
25: <p>
26: A mailing list for ARM-based ports is available at
27: <u><font color="#23238e">arm@openbsd.org</font></u>.
28: To join the OpenBSD/arm mailing list, send a message body of
29: <b>"subscribe arm"</b> to

59: In May 2009 Dale Rahn imported code to the OpenBSD tree
60: which added initial support to the omap35xx platform. The initial target for
61: this platform was the original BeagleBoard system.
