Hi,
Has anybody been able to run OpenBSD 4.0 or newer under Parallels
Desktop? Booting the 3.9 media works just fine and I am able to
install the OS. Booting 4.0 (or newer snapshots) media results in a
lock-up of the VM at the (I)nstall/(U)pgrade prompt. I'd post a
dmesg(1) but I'm unable to select text in the VM. I'm running the
latest build (3120) of Parallels Desktop under Mac OS X 10.4.8.
Running -current on build 3120, under 10.4.8 on a 1.83Ghz Macbook.
Never experienced lockup problems. Performance is great.
openssl speed blowfish
On host os, Mac OS X, 45.3MB/s
On guest os, OpenBSD 4.0-current, 62.0MB/s
Of course OpenSSL versions are different. OpenBSD version includes asm
implementations since 2.6 for pentium and pentium pro archs. I guess OS
X version includes them too. Anyway I don't have a plausible reasoning
for this dramatical perf difference.
