I updated the pmon paths. It autoboots. It autoboots the kernel. But then it prompts me for two devices (swap and I guess root fs). How do I remove those prompts? same: $ dmesg | grep ral ral0 at pci0 dev 13 function 0 "Ralink RT2561S" rev 0x00: irq 6, address 00:0e:8e:1e:ef:d0 ral0: MAC/BBP RT256

Hey. I'm sure you've heard this before, but here's another vote: Please provide get/set/make/swapcontext. (and/or kernel threads.) They are Posix-standard, but, admittedly, deprecated. And, admittedly, most applications can use pthreads instead. Longer story: Modula-3. Provides threads in

Following 163 lines are reduced from a "very portable" way to implement threads in usermode, without hacking jmpbuf, using sigaltstack to set the stack pointer. On OpenBSD 4.6 x86 and powerpc it hangs if I use -pthread, but otherwise does not. The hang is in the while(..) sigsuspend(), not too s

password-less console-only access and ssh remote access?

My ideal setup would be: 1) no passwords ("*" in /etc/passwd or via vipw) 2) only ssh for remote access i.e. no password-based security, only something better 3) except console, where anyone should be able to login without any password (granted, I only have two users, root and jay)

Java for other than x86/amd64?

We use Hudson to manage builds. It uses Java. It looks like there's nothing viable here for OpenBSD other than x86 and AMD64? I already have OpenBSD/x86 working. I have Linux/ppc, maybe Linux/sparc working. There's a "zero assembly" project that has eased things, but the web page says it is gcc and
