- <h3><font color=#0000e0>History and Status:</font></h3>
- 
  <p>
- The i386 port has quite a few architecture specific changes from the
- NetBSD/i386 port, but the major ones are:
- <ul>
- <li>Also runs on machines with 512MB of ram or more, does not crash.
- <li>the addition of ISA bounce buffer support so that ISA scsi cards (ie.
- 	Adaptec 1542) can be used in machines with more than 16MB of memory.
- <li>The same one GENERIC kernel works on all machines, whether it has
- 	BusLogic or Adaptec scsi cards.
- <li>some DDB improvements
- <li>OPTI mcd support
- <li>ATAPI cdrom support
- <li>P5/P6 improved NTP support
- <li>pccons has userland replaceable keymaps, and screen blanking
- <li>boot "-a" support like other ports (asks for root partition)
- <li>floppy disk formatting
- <li>Cyclades Cyclom serial driver
- <li>faster (assembly) IP checksumming (typically 20% faster, up to 62% faster
- 	in some cases)
- <li>vmstat -i prints interrupt information.
- <li>latest rev of adaptec 2940 driver from FreeBSD
- <li>supports "ep* at port ? irq ?"
- <li>faster i386-specific `pccom' device driver.
- <li>/dev/pctr pseudo-device & program for accessing the Pentium and PentiumPro
- 	performance counters.
- <li>Fixed major i386 kernel interrupt race.
- <li>Fixed UCONSOLE security hole without breaking xconsole.
- <li>ISA Plug-and-Play support
- <li>the GPL FP emulator from Linux/Freebsd, for users who want to use it.
- 	Much better!
- <li>Prefer partition type 166, so that OpenBSD can co-reside on the same
- 	disk as a 386BSD/NetBSD/FreeBSD install.
- <li>Attempt to fault in a ptp; this avoids two ptp panic cases.
- <li>RAW_PART is now 'c', not 'd'. It should start at 0, and cover your whole
- 	disk.
- <li>Updated ncr driver, much more performance.
- <li>3c59x and 3c9xx cards work.
- <li>Can mount DOS file systems with cluster size &gt; 16KB.
- <li>Support for M$ IntelliMouse as a 3-button PS/2 mouse.
- <li>Support for Industrial Computer Source PCI-WDT50x watchdog timers.
- </ul>

  <h3><font color=#0000e0>Installation with Other Operating Systems:</font></h3>
  The OpenBSD/i386 port can be installed to share the system disks with
  other operating systems such as MSDOS, Windows or Linux using the MSDOS
