Hello!

Today, I have completed my project for university: Porting OpenBSD to the Xbox.

Summary (from the project page):
The project is finished now (the port is not completely finished), and the most important parts are working. The kernel boots, memory gets initialized, there is output on the TV, network is working, the root fs gets mounted, users can log in and work with the system. But there are still things that could be done. I have to do other things now, and I don't have time anymore to continue and completely finish the port. But the inhibition threshold for others who want OpenBSD at the Xbox should be very low now, the most annoying and time wasting problems are solved. I hope somebody will complete the port (please let me know if you plan to do so). The Xbox isn't supported as an official platform by the OpenBSD developers, a pity (It isn't even mentioned on plat.html). A big thanks to the NetBSD Xbox port, I have taken some code from there, and to all the other people that helped me.


Details can be found at the project page:
