+<h3>Installation with Other Operating Systems:</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
 MBR/partition scheme and an optional boot selector.  Everyday operation is
 trouble free, but setup requires care and Windows '95 installation is known
 to be careless about pre-existing MBR/partition information.
 See the Installation Notes for more details.

+<h3>Supported Hardware:</h3>
 The OpenBSD i386 port works across a broad range of standard PC's and clones,
 with a wide variety of processors and I/O bus architecures.  It can be expected
 to install and run with minimal diffculty on most current products.
 The cases where problems may be encountered are typically older proprietary
 PC's, Laptops or specialized server boxes that rely on a custom BIOS to paper
 over implementation differences.
+
 <p>
 OpenBSD does not currently support multiple processors, but will run using
 one processor on a multi-processor system board.

-as do not own all the hardware listed to test them on an on-going basis.
-Also, please note any reservations listed.  You must let us know if this list
-is incorrect, or if a driver is broken.)
 <ul>
 <li> All mainstream i386 architecture CPU chips, including 386, 486, Pentium, Pentium-Pro and compatibles such as the AMD K5 series.

+Drivers for hardware marked with "[*]" are NOT included on the
+distribution floppies.  Except as noted above, all other drivers are
+present on both kernel-copy disks.  Also, at the present time, the
+distributed kernels support only one SCSI host adapter per machine.
+OpenBSD normally allows more, though, so if you have more than one, you
+can use all of them by compiling a custom kernel once OpenBSD is
+installed.
+ 
+Support for devices marked with "[+]" IS included in the "generic" kernels,
+although it is not in the kernel on the installation floppy.
