1.1 kettenis 55: <p>
56: OpenBSD/socppc is heavily based on OpenBSD/macppc. The e300 core
57: found on the MPC8349E is a derivative of the MPC603e processor used in
1.2 deraadt 58: early PowerPC-based Apple Macintosh systems, so most of the low-level
1.1 kettenis 59: code is identical.

63: <p>
64: Hardware support is mostly complete and quite stable. USB 1 devices
65: are only supported behind a USB 2.0 hub, and support for the
66: integrated switch on the Thecus N1200 is still missing.
