Title: Pure Openbsd
Post by: Da_Blitz on September 02, 2005, 02:00:30 am

Does anyone know if they (the openBSD team) are working on getting rid of the requirement of having linux on the pda to boot the thing.

even if someone came up with a minimal linux for flash that loaded the hard drive modules (or have thme builit in) mounted it, found the BSD kernel and used the inject method for the open BSD kernel

then i could just have OpneBSD on the hard drive and use linux to do recovery
