+On-board Audio and ISDN
+ This is present on some sun4m systems (LX, LC, SPARCstation 10/20).

+
Multiple Processors/Modules in sun4m systems
+ OpenBSD will not currently boot on machines with multiple processors.
+ You must remove the extra CPUs.

+
SBUS SUNW,bpp (parallel port)
+ A driver exists in the source tree, but it does not work. None of the
+ developers have printers or cables to work with, to make it work, but
+ we really would prefer to receive a fixed driver.

SBUS FAS scsi controllers
+ The FAS-only card is not supposed. The HME+FAS card only supports the
