Short: Final version of OpenBSD/amiga Author: Various Uploader: aminet aminet net Type: misc/os Version: 3.2 Architecture: other This is the final version of OpenBSD/amiga, the port was discontinued after v3.2. The following is an excerpt of the INSTALL.amiga file included in the archive: What is OpenBSD? ---------------- OpenBSD is a fully functional, multi-platform UN*X-like Operating System based on Berkeley Networking Release 2 (Net/2) and 4.4BSD-Lite. OpenBSD/amiga is a port to the Amiga machines manufactured by Commodore. The ports supports a wide range of hardware and peripherals, with all the stability and security you can expect from OpenBSD. OpenBSD System Requirements and Supported Devices: -------------------------------------------------- OpenBSD/amiga 3.2 runs on any amiga that has a 68020, 68030, 68040 or 68060 CPU with some form of FPU and MMU. It should also run on MacroSystem's DraCo computer. 6MB of RAM should be sufficient to boot and a minimal system can probably be squeezed onto a 100MB partition by installing just the minimum sets. To actually do much compiling or anything more interesting than booting, more RAM and disk space is highly recommended. About 250MB will be necessary to install all of the OpenBSD 3.2 binary distribution (note that this does not count swap space!). Much more disk space is required to install the source and objects as well (about another 600MB). An AmigaDOS partition is also required to install OpenBSD/amiga 3.2 and boot it, see below. Supported devices include: A4000/A1200 IDE controller. ISA IDE & ATAPI with a supported ISA bridge. [Note: With single ATAPI device IDE busses, the ATAPI device should be set to SLAVE.] SCSI host adapters: 33c93 based boards: A2091, A3000 and GVP series II. 53c80 based boards: 12 Gauge, IVS, Emplant and Wordsync/Bytesync. 53c710 based boards: A4091, Magnum, Warp Engine, Zeus and DraCo.
