1.5 horacio 61: The orginal port was made for NetBSD by Eduardo Horvath and released for
1.4 art 62: the first time in January 1999.
63: The porting to OpenBSD started in August 2001 and in the end of September the
64: first binary snapshot was released. The porting was done mainly by Jason
1.15 jason 65: Wright and Artur Grabowski and was done on both SBUS and PCI machines so that
1.6 jcs 66: a decently wide range of hardware support was ready even before the system
67: could boot multiuser.
1.1 mickey 68: </p>
69:
1.48 jason 70: <p>
71: OpenBSD 3.0 was the first official release of OpenBSD/sparc64, and since
72: that release support for many more devices has been added (including
73: devices required for X11R6 support) and bugs exposed by the 64 bit big endian
74: nature of UltraSPARC in many obscure places have been fixed. And
75: work is continuing...

81:
82: <p>
83: Currently most of the hardware available to the developers boots multiuser and
1.86 miod 84: supports enough of the on-board devices to be generally useable.
1.4 art 85: </p>

1.86 miod 88: The X-Window system is supported on most systems.
1.49 matthieu 89: Only the ATI graphics adapters are supported with the accelerated X server
90: at the current time.
1.86 miod 91: It is possible to use X in frame buffer mode with either the SBus
1.65 jason 92: bwtwo, cgthree and cgsix cards, on-board ATI graphics or the UPA Creator,
1.59 fgsch 93: Creator 3D or Elite 3D at the boot resolution/depth using the wsfb(4) driver.

! 404: <strong>Getting and installing OpenBSD/sparc64:</strong>
! 405: </font></h3>
! 406:
! 407: <p>
! 408: The latest supported OpenBSD/sparc64 release is
! 409: <a href="32.html">OpenBSD 3.2</a>.
! 410: Here are the
! 411: <a href="ftp://ftp.OpenBSD.org/pub/OpenBSD/3.2/sparc64/INSTALL.TEMPLATE">
! 412: OpenBSD/sparc64 3.2 installation instructions
! 413: </a>.
! 414: </p>
! 415:
! 416: <p>
! 417: Snapshots are made available from time to time, in
! 418: <a href="ftp://ftp.OpenBSD.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/sparc64">this location</a>
! 419: as well as in a few
! 420: <a href="ftp.html">mirrors</a>.
! 421: Here are the
! 422: <a href="ftp://ftp.OpenBSD.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/sparc64/INSTALL.TEMPLATE">
! 423: OpenBSD/sparc64 snapshot installation instructions
! 424: </a> as well.
! 425: </p>
! 426:
! 427: <p>
! 428: There are several installation media provided, so that
! 429: OpenBSD/sparc64 can be installed or upgraded via CD, floppy boot images on
! 430: Ultra1 and Ultra2, miniroot images for machines without floppies
! 431: (and sun4 machines), as well as network and diskless installs.
! 432: <ul>
! 433: <li><strong>CD boot</strong>
! 434: <p>
! 435: Booting off the CD provides a small ffs filesystem with a kernel containing
! 436: drivers for the most popular devices found on UltraSPARC hardware.<br>
! 437: For the latest list of drivers available on this image, take a look at the
! 438: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/sys/arch/sparc64/conf/RAMDISK?rev=HEAD">RAMDISK</a>
! 439: kernel configuration file.
! 440: The CD can be booted off the OpenFirmware prompt with
! 441: <pre>
! 442: boot cdrom
! 443: </pre>
! 444: </p></li>
! 445: <li><strong>Floppy</strong> (floppy32.fs)
! 446: <p>
! 447: Booting off the floppy provides a small ffs filesystem with a kernel
! 448: containing supporting the following sparc64 hardware:
! 449: <ul>
! 450: <li>Ultra 1/1E
! 451: <li>Ultra 2
! 452: </ul>
! 453: as well as support for the on-board devices found on these machines.
! 454: However due to lack of space there are only a few other drivers.
! 455: In particular, this floppy <i>lacks cdrom support</i> and will <i>not</i>
! 456: allow installation from cdrom media.
! 457: For the latest list of drivers available on this image, take a look at the
! 458: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/sys/arch/sparc64/conf/RAMDISKU1?rev=HEAD">RAMDISKU1</a>
! 459: kernel configuration file.
! 460: The floppy can be booted off the OpenFirmware prompt with
! 461: <pre>
! 462: boot floppy
! 463: </pre>
! 464: </p></li>
! 465: <li><strong>Miniroot</strong> (miniroot32.fs)
! 466: <p>
! 467: The miniroot provides the same installation environment as the bootable CD,
! 468: and is intended for easy bootstrap if there is already an operating system
! 469: installed on the machine.
! 470: After dumping the miniroot to the primary swap partition with dd, the
! 471: miniroot can be booted off the OpenFirmware prompt with a command such as
! 472: <pre>
! 473: boot disk:b
! 474: </pre>
! 475: (the disk designation may be different, depending on the chosen swap
! 476: partition).
! 477: </p></li>
! 478: <li><strong>Network boot</strong> (ofwboot.net, bsd.rd)
! 479: <p>
! 480: Using a diskless setup, it is also possible to boot the OpenBSD/sparc64
! 481: boot loader, <tt>ofwboot.net</tt>, from the network via tftp, and access
! 482: the <tt>bsd.rd</tt> standalone miniroot over NFS.
! 483: Refer to the
! 484: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=diskless&sektion=8">diskless(8)</a>
! 485: manual page for details on how to setup a network boot environment.
! 486: </p></li>
! 487: </ul>
! 488: </p>
! 489:
! 490: <p>
! 491: Please note that booting from floppy might not work on your machine; also,
! 492: Ultra 1, 1E and 2 systems might require a PROM update (they usually don't if
! 493: they are able to boot Solaris in 64bit-mode); please refer to the
! 494: installation notes for details.
