Welcome To The Zaurus Openbsd Forum!, Who's running openBSD on their Z? Options

[obscurite]

Well, maybe this will be a good resource for folks who want to try the new Zaurus support in the OpenBSD 3.7 arm port!

Thanks offroadgeek!

This looks very impressive. How does it compare to pdaXrom? Where can I follow news on development? I have a C1000 and would like to try this OS. I'm sure using a large SD card would make up for no internal HD. Thank you.

Good Day!

This looks very impressive.  How does it compare to pdaXrom?

No idea, a few minutes after receiving my zaurus, I was already fdisking and
disklabeling an OpenBSD install. ;)

Where can I follow news on development?

OpenBSD-arm[0] list and OpenBSD-source-changes list[1]. More[2].

I have a C1000 and would like to try this OS.

May contact you in the next few days. The C1k is not officially supported, I'm
in the process of documenting OpenBSD install on a CF card/disk.

I'm sure using a large SD card would make up for no internal HD.  Thank you.

Unfortunately, the SD is currently not supported. After the 3.8 release maybe(Around November).
