Tried running OpenBSD on an ancient Nortel Contivity 100.
The issue is that the CPU claims to support RdRand despite being a 286MHz Cyrix
6x686MX.
So, as soon as OpenBSD tries to use that instruction for /dev/random, the
kernel jumps into debug land with the following:
kernel: privileged
Good call. That would work around this current problem nicely. Though, I don’t
know if this problem is with this specific core, or Cyrix chips in general.
I won’t be too worried about the whole exercise. I was going to use it for a
project, but I realized how silly that would be given that you
