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!

Hello,

i've owned a sl-c3000 for almost 1 year now. I've used sharp rom for 6 months and then cacko rom for 5 months. During the last two weeks, i've tried openzaurus, pdaxrom which won't work with sl-c3000 due to memory issue.

yesterday i've installed openBSD 3.8 found in the snapshots. I've followed the install instructions and it's an amazing work you've done. I'm really impressed. The most impressive part is that i am able to dual boot either to cacko rom or to openBSD and the install needed just to launch ipkg manager... i feel i'll keep my cacko rom to wake me up in the morning and run kapi/kopi til i'll manage installing and configuring openBSD as i wish.

but i can say for others that my wlan card (asus wl-110) was recognized and configured for wifi in 2 minutes afterboot. i love the man pages in openBSD, and i find in this environment all the things that made me love slackware a few years ago...

well thanks again.

Loran
