History and Status:

-The hp300 port has no architecture specific changes from the -NetBSD/hp300 port. +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. +
