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.
1.238 horacio 25: See the <a href="faq/faq4.html">Installation Guide</a> and
26: <a href="faq/faq14.html">Disk Setup Manual</a> for more details.

30: A number of install options exist:
31: <ul>
32: <li><strong>CD boot:</strong><p>
1.216 nate 33: Booting off the CD provides an El Torito 2.88MB floppy image
1.217 nate 34: that contains almost all OpenBSD drivers. This also includes minimal USB
35: support (umass and ukbd devices).<br>
1.216 nate 36: For the latest list of drivers available on this image, take a look at the
37: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/sys/arch/i386/conf/RAMDISK_CD?rev=HEAD">
38: RAMDISK_CD</a> config file.<p>
1.162 deraadt 39: <li><strong>Floppy A:</strong><p>
1.206 deraadt 40: This 1.44MB floppy image contains the most common drivers. It is designed to
41: cover the most typical PC. As a general rule, you will find that the missing
42: drivers are ones which need large microcodes to run, such as for rare scsi
1.216 nate 43: cards, gigabit ethernet cards, or RAID devices.<br>
44: For the latest list of drivers available on this image, take a look at the
45: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/sys/arch/i386/conf/RAMDISK?rev=HEAD">
46: RAMDISK</a> config file.<p>
1.162 deraadt 47: <li><strong>Floppy B:</strong><p>
48: This 1.44MB floppy image contains the drivers that are missing on Floppy A.
1.206 deraadt 49: This media is designed to help people setting up modern server type systems.
50: It contains support for pretty much all the SCSI and RAID drivers, gigabit
51: ethernet cards, and such. Due to space considerations, you will find that
52: some other drivers are missing. In particular, support for most PCMCIA devices
1.216 nate 53: are missing, as are really ancient hardware devices.<br>
54: For the latest list of drivers available on this image, take a look at the
55: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/sys/arch/i386/conf/RAMDISKB?rev=HEAD">
56: RAMDISKB</a> config file.<p>
1.162 deraadt 57: <li><strong>Floppy C:</strong><p>
1.206 deraadt 58: This 1.44MB floppy image contains many cardbus and pcmcia device drivers. This
59: media is designed for installing on laptops. In most cases, one would discover
1.162 deraadt 60: that Floppy A also works, but the odd laptop might benefit more from using this
1.216 nate 61: image.<br>
62: For the latest list of drivers available on this image, take a look at the
63: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/sys/arch/i386/conf/RAMDISKC?rev=HEAD">

1.54 deraadt 70: <h3><font color=#0000e0>Binary compatibility with other Operating Systems:</font></h3>
1.46 deraadt 71: The OpenBSD/i386 port can run Linux, FreeBSD, BSD/OS,
1.44 deraadt 72: SVR4 (including Solaris), and IBCS2 binaries.
73:
74: <p>
1.54 deraadt 75: <h3><font color=#0000e0>Supported Hardware:</font></h3>
1.46 deraadt 76: The OpenBSD/i386 port works across a broad range of standard PC's and clones,
1.229 miod 77: with a wide variety of processors and I/O bus architectures. It can be expected
1.53 todd 78: to install and run with minimal difficulty on most current products.
1.32 grr 79: The cases where problems may be encountered are typically older proprietary
80: PC's, Laptops or specialized server boxes that rely on a custom BIOS to paper
81: over implementation differences.
1.34 johns 82:
1.32 grr 83: <p>
1.117 deraadt 84: OpenBSD does not currently support multiple processors (SMP), but will run
85: using one processor on a multi-processor system board.
1.34 johns 86:
1.31 deraadt 87: <p>
1.117 deraadt 88: Most laptops are supported. We have <a href=i386-laptop.html>a page</a>
89: that details the specifics of most common laptops.
90:
91: <p>
1.182 aaron 92: The list of supported hardware is relevant to OpenBSD-current. It will
93: differ slightly from the support provided in the latest release version.
