<h2>OpenBSD/hp300</h2>

<hr>
<h3><strong>History and Status:</strong></h3>

<p>
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.
</p>

<p>
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.
</p>

<h3><strong>Supported Hardware:</strong></h3>

<p>
<ul>
<li>CPUs:

<li>SCSI-I<sup>2</sup>, including magneto-optical and CD-ROM.
</ul>
<li>Tape drives:
<ul>
<li>Low-density HP-IB/CS80 cartridge: 7914, 7946, and 9144.
<li>High-density HP-IB/CS80 cartridge: 9145.

<li>SCSI: HP DAT, Exabyte, and SCSI QIC drives such as the Archive Viper.
</ul>
<li>RS232 interfaces:
<ul>
<li>98644 built-in and add-on card single port (dca).
<li>98642 4-port (dcm).
<li>98638 8-port (dcm).
</ul>
<li>Network interfaces:
<ul>
<li>98643 built-in and add-on LAN cards.
</ul>
<li>Displays:
<ul>
<li>98544, 98545, and 98547 color and monochrome Topcat.
<li>98548, 98549, 98550, and A1416 color and monochrome Catseye.
<li>98700 and 98710 Gatorbox.
<li>98720 and 98721 Renaissance.
<li>98730 and 98731 DaVinci.
<li>A1096A monochrome Hyperion.
</ul>

mice<sup>3</sup>, and ID module.
</ul>
<li>Miscellaneous:
<ul>
<li>Battery-backed real-time clock.
<li>98624 built-in HP-IB interface.
<li>98625A and 98625B `fast' HP-IB interface.
<li>98658A built-in and add-on SCSI interface.
<li>Printers and plotters on RS232 and HP-IB.
<li>SCSI autochanger.
</ul>
</ul>
</p>
<p>
<sup>1</sup> 400-series machines configured for <i>Domain/OS</i> are not fully
supported, notably, the keyboard doesn't work and the ROMs must be in
<i>HP-UX mode</i> in order to boot the system.
<br>
<sup>2</sup> SCSI-II drives are known to work, though this may require
changing a jumper on some drives.  See your disk's documentation for details.
<br>
<sup>3</sup> Serial mice connected to a <i>HIL to quad</i> converter are also
known to work.
</p>
<h3><strong>Notable Unsupported Hardware:</strong></h3>

<p>
<ul>
<li>SGC bus on the 425e, and all associated displays.
