Supported platformsOpenBSD is officially supported on the following platforms. Official support means that the release install media is known to work, that the architecture can self-compile itself, and that most of the basic tools exist on the architecture. As well, new releases always exist, and there are attempts to make snapshots available on a regular basis. |

palm | Palm/PXA based PDAs |
Current porting effortsThe following ports are not officially supported, and are not on par with supported platforms, but they are being worked on and may hopefully become supported platforms in the future, if enough progress is made. Be warned that some of these efforts have not shown very much recent activity. |
