Same here.  I finally have a functional ver. of OpenBSD 3.7 running on 
QEMU on my PowerBook.  I was not happy, however, with the OpenBSD image 
that freeoszoo.org had - I had problems running pkg_add and a number of 
other things I wanted to test.  Instead of investigating why, I simply 
did my own fresh install.  I have put up a .gz img file of the 4g image 
at http://anywheretechnology.com/openbsd/openbsd37.img.gz if anyone is 
interested (it's about 145MB).  The password for root is 0b$d (where 0 
is a zero).  I installed wget before making the compressed image.  
Otherwise, it is a vanilla 3.7 install.  If I can ever take the time to 
figure out how to set up a torrent, I'll put that up, too.

P.S.  I finally gave up on Virtual PC.  I found some work around sites, 
but to be honest, I don't have time to work on it if it doesn't work 
out of the box and QEMU does the job...

OpenBSD 3.7 in a virtualpc-machine

Hi.

Maybe the wrong side of the coin, but I think this list is right for 
that than [EMAIL PROTECTED]


I tried to install OpenBSD on my iBooks VirtualPC 6 for several 
times now, anytime just a processor failure when installing the 
base-packages. Maybe this will be fixed in version 7, a friend of mine 
will test this soon.


Googeling around brought no enligthenment to me. So any suggestions by 
 your person?


Thanks and some special weekend regards,

Thorsten
