1.42 miod 46: This port was primarily done by Theo de Raadt in 1995 as a contract to
47: Willowglen Singapore. An earlier port to the MVME147 by Chuck Cranor
48: based on Paul Mackerras' old DA30 code (and using hardware donated by
49: Jonathan Levine at Theo's request) provided a solid development
50: platform.
1.1 deraadt 51:
1.33 deraadt 52: <p>
1.42 miod 53: Bizzarely, Dale Rahn, working for Motorola back then, also independently
54: wrote a port to the MVME147. For most kernel parts, both their ports were
55: analyzed but more code was written from scratch by Theo, or based on the
56: hp300 code.
1.1 deraadt 57:
1.35 deraadt 58: <p>
1.42 miod 59: Dale helped significantly during the porting to the 68040
60: models and wrote most of the code specific to the MVME167 model.
1.45 miod 61: Later, Steve Murphree continued work and made the MVME177 work, as well as
1.58 miod 62: adding support for more VME devices.

1.42 miod 69: Currently, all the boards listed in the
1.56 nick 70: <a href="#hardware">supported hardware</a> section below boot
1.42 miod 71: multi-user, and support enough of the on-board devices to be generally
1.55 pedro 72: usable.
1.42 miod 73:
74: <p>
75: OpenBSD/mvme68k is able to run sun3 SunOS binaries via the
76: <strong>COMPAT_SUNOS</strong> kernel option.
77: Thus, the MVME177 board is probably the fastest machine capable of running
78: SunOS m68k binaries!
79:
80: <p>
81: As none of the mvme68k boards have graphics devices, and none of the Motorola
1.49 jmc 82: VME frame buffers are currently supported, there are no X Window System servers
1.42 miod 83: available.
1.49 jmc 84: However, a complete set of X clients and utilities is available,
1.42 miod 85: allowing OpenBSD/mvme68k machines to behave as X11 font servers, or run
1.49 jmc 86: X clients on remote display.
