+ OpenBSD 3.6-current (as of August 2004) runs. + Installation is cumbersome, though. + The Sony CD drive does not boot the snapshot CD. +
++ Installation by USB floppy: + The floppy36.fs of the snapshot (august 2004) + can be brought to boot if one disables the + following (boot -c, wait for the UKC> prompt): +
+ + disable pcibios + disable fxp + disable pcic + ++ After this there is no USB, no PCMCIA, no Cardbus + and no network. This means that the laptop has + no input/output! So you have to put the install sets + on a partition from some other OS or earlier installations + of OpenBSD. The install script can mount ffs and msdos + partitions. The kernel as supplied with the snapshot + boots alright and recognizes all the relevant hardware + (no softmodem, no firewire, no memorystick, no JogDial). + Sound (yds) works. The XFConfig from the OpenBSD install + works without modification. +
+ Contact Matthias Bauer. +
+OpenBSD 2.9 works but had some problems with disklabel/fdisk,
