1.54 deraadt 19: <h3><font color=#0000e0>Installation with Other Operating Systems:</font></h3>
1.46 deraadt 20: The OpenBSD/i386 port can be installed to share the system disks with
1.130 aaron 21: other operating systems such as MS-DOS, Windows or Linux using the MS-DOS
1.32 grr 22: MBR/partition scheme and an optional boot selector. Everyday operation is
23: trouble free, but setup requires care and Windows '95 installation is known
24: to be careless about pre-existing MBR/partition information.
25: See the Installation Notes for more details.

1.162 deraadt 28: <h3><font color=#0000e0>Install media</font></h3>
29: A number of install options exist:
30: <ul>
31: <li><strong>CD boot:</strong><p>
32: Booting off the CD provides an El Torido 2.88MB floppy image
33: that contains almost all OpenBSD drivers.<p>
34: <li><strong>Floppy A:</strong><p>
35: This 1.44MB floppy image contains the most common drivers. As a general rule,
36: you will find that the missing drivers are ones which need large microcodes
37: to run. This includes a few of the more rare scsi cards, gigabit ethernet
38: cards, or RAID devices.<p>
39: <li><strong>Floppy B:</strong><p>
40: This 1.44MB floppy image contains the drivers that are missing on Floppy A.
41: Due to space considerations, you will find that some other drivers are missing.
42: In particular, support for most PCMCIA devices are missing, as are really
43: ancient hardware devices. In some ways, this media is designed to help people
44: setting up modern server type systems, since it contains almost all the SCSI
45: and RAID drivers.<p>
46: <li><strong>Floppy C:</strong><p>
47: This 1.44MB floppy image contains many cardbus and pcmcia device drivers. It
48: is an excellent choice to use for laptops. In most cases, one would discover
49: that Floppy A also works, but the odd laptop might benefit more from using this
50: image.<p>
51: </ul>
52: <p>
53: Use the method that works best for you.

1.54 deraadt 56: <h3><font color=#0000e0>Binary compatibility with other Operating Systems:</font></h3>
1.46 deraadt 57: The OpenBSD/i386 port can run Linux, FreeBSD, BSD/OS,
1.44 deraadt 58: SVR4 (including Solaris), and IBCS2 binaries.
59:
60: <p>
1.54 deraadt 61: <h3><font color=#0000e0>Supported Hardware:</font></h3>
1.46 deraadt 62: The OpenBSD/i386 port works across a broad range of standard PC's and clones,
1.32 grr 63: with a wide variety of processors and I/O bus architecures. It can be expected
1.53 todd 64: to install and run with minimal difficulty on most current products.
1.32 grr 65: The cases where problems may be encountered are typically older proprietary
66: PC's, Laptops or specialized server boxes that rely on a custom BIOS to paper
67: over implementation differences.
1.34 johns 68:
1.32 grr 69: <p>
1.117 deraadt 70: OpenBSD does not currently support multiple processors (SMP), but will run
71: using one processor on a multi-processor system board.
1.34 johns 72:
1.31 deraadt 73: <p>
1.117 deraadt 74: Most laptops are supported. We have <a href=i386-laptop.html>a page</a>
