History and Status:

! The NetBSD/hp300 port is unable to run executables from any of the ! other m68k architectures because it uses executables with a 4K page ! size. All the other m68k ports use 8K pagesize executables. There ! are 3 other m68k ports (sun3, amiga, atari) that use a HARDWARE 8K ! pagesize, and will never be able to efficiently run 4K executables.

! As a result, OpenBSD/hp300 was changed to use 8K executables as well. ! For compatibility, it can also run the old 4K executables. No ! measurable performance losses or filesize increases are incurred by ! using 8K pagesize executables.

History and Status:

! OpenBSD follows in the footsteps of 4.4BSD by supporting the hp300; most ! types of machine are supported with 68020 or better processors, along with ! SCSI and HPIB storage devices.

! OpenBSD/hp300 runs 8k pagesize executables natively (the first operating ! system for the hp300 to do so), maintaining the standard binary format ! used by all other OpenBSD m68k platforms.
