Unfortunately whilst this would have made a nice introduction to
OpenBSD coding we have taken the decision to add our own UARTS to give
us independence from the ridiculous Intel firmware insecurities so if
Intel Trusted Execution and other configuration changes cannot mitigate
the risks then we can switch to e.g. an older AMD board as needed.

NERF is Linux only apparently.

Sorry for the noise and I hope I can pick this up in my free time
(not that i have had much for a looong time) but wouldn't be surprised
if this gets done by others way before then. Gives me the opportunity to
observe OpenBSD practices for longer in any case (less annoying
questions ;)).

Regards
