Revision 1.53, Mon May 27 22:55:21 2019 UTC (5 years ago) by bentley
Substantially clean up and modernize HTML markup across openbsd.org. This was done with three purposes in mind: - to reduce the massive amount of inline HTML, to be easier on developers adding actual content - to allow running the HTML validator across the source (doing this found many unintentional mistakes in the present code, including at least a dozen cases of half- or fully-invisible text) - to separate content from presentation, so appearance can be controlled through stylesheets Great care was taken to keep all pages, even very old ones, looking the same, give or take a few pixels of whitespace. Much review, critique, and improvement from tj@ |

Early work targeted the Portwell CAM-0100. <p> Due to the lack of available hardware, the port lay dormant for a few years. This changed in January 2013 with the release of the Ubiquiti Networks EdgeRouter LITE. Several developers obtained these new machines, and work began immediately. Due to issues with USB support, the port to the Portwell CAM-0100 matured first because it allowed CF cards to be used as a storage medium. <p> Development has been rapid, with the port to the Portwell CAM-0100 becoming self-hosting in April 2013. In August 2013 the DSR-500 model reached userland and could host OpenBSD via NFS. Support for EdgeRouter LITE Ethernet was added in September 2013, allowing the EdgeRouter LITE to be usable by NFS booting. <p> In June 2015 USB support was added which finally allowed installing to local disk on machines lacking a CF slot. <hr> <h3 id="hardware"><strong>Supported hardware:</strong></h3> <p> OpenBSD/octeon supports the following machines: <ul> <li><a href="http://www.portwell.com/products/detail.php?CUSTCHAR1=CAM-0100"> Portwell CAM-0100</a> <li>D-Link <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140803060102/http://www.dlink.com/us/en/business-solutions/security/services-routers/dsr-500-the-d-link-services-router"> DSR-500</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20170422065451/http://us.dlink.com/us/en/business-solutions/security/services-routers/dsr-500n-wireless-n-unified-services-router.html"> DSR-500N</a> <li><a href="http://www.rhinolabsinc.com/rhino-shasta-enterprise-grade-network-appliance/">Rhino Labs Inc.
