<h2>OpenBSD/hp300 FAQ</h2>

<hr>

<ul>
<li>How do I change the hp400 boot ROM mode from Domain/OS to HP-UX?
<br>Remove the Domain keyboard, replacing it with a HIL model.  
Press the <i>service</i> switch on the front panel; the LED will light,
then press the <i>reset</i> switch on the back of the machine.
The system should then boot into <b>MD</b> mode, and display a <b>&gt</b>
prompt.  If the prompt does not display, try pressing <i>return</i> a few
times; when the prompt appears, type <b>hp</b> and press <i>return</i>.
Your system should then reset and display the HP-UX style ROM messages.
<li>How do I change the hp400 boot ROM mode from HP-UX to Domain/OS?
<br>You may want to seek professional psychological help.
<li>How do I set the serial port to be the console on a 300-series machine?
<br>For anything before the hp380, you need to set the <b>remote</b> bit
on the motherboard or serial card; settings are different for every model
and beyond the scope of this document.  For the hp380 and above (including
the 400 series), simply press the <i>space bar</i> during the ROM configuration
so that the boot menu appears; at the prompt type <b>C</b> and press
<i>return</i>.  The configuration menu will appear, from where you can
put the serial port into <b>remote</b> mode.
</ul>
