Problem boot cd70.iso and install70.iso on sparc from sparc64 release
Hi,
The release versions of both cd70.iso and install70.iso will not ( at least
for me ) boot my sparc machines. The files from snapshot will boot these
machines! Please see the two machines reports below.
Now I have tried to use a snapshot cd70 boot to install from stable but so
far I have been unable to do this. The snapshot installs fine but of course
uses the files sets from the snapshot directory.
On a working 7.0 snapshot install...
I tried to install the Yubikey tools from packages and also build from
ports. Both failed with some problem with a python conflict. I would like
to be able to install the release ( stable ) version of OpenBSD sparc64 and
build the ports. Any help would be most appreciated. I have posted
regarding the inability to boot sparc from release ( stable ) previously
but have had no replies.
Any help?
Keep safe, kind regards John.

Sun t5120 LDOMs
Hi everyone, I am trying to set up a ldom on a sun t5120 machine running
sparc64 6.8. This did work fine on 6.5. The problem I'm having is that once
the machine is reset to use the openbsd bootmode the machine hangs and
asks for the root device. If one tries to answer this I get no way of
entering
sda which is the root device. Here is the ldom.conf file, the boot sequence
with the hang and the factory-default dmesg. Can someone point me in the
right direction on how to fix this so that I can install multiple ldom's?
Does anyone know why it's not finding ( how to make it find ) the bootpath?
Kind regards John
t5120-14# cat ldom.conf

}
domain "puffy" {

vdisk "/alt/vm/puffy/vdisk0"

Here is the boot sequence with the hang:-

Boot NVME device on sparc64
Hi there, Does anyone have a way of booting a pcie nvme device on sparc64. I can install OBSD on the device but of course there is no way OBP can see it as a boot device. I can also use it for storage under OpenBSD which works fine. But! Is there any way to boot OpenBSD 6.5 installed on this drive on sparc64. I'm using a Sun t5120. Kind regards John.
Modern browser for OpenBSD powerpc
Can someone suggest a modern graphical browser for OpenBSD PowerPC? I'm trying to run several G5's and g4 mini's on 6.5 as desktop machines. The basic install works really well but there doesn't seem to be an up to date graphically browser. It's thanks to all the work the devs have put into OpenBSD powerpc that these machine are still very usable. They are hopelessly out of date as far as the Mac OS are concerned! Kind regards John.

Re: alternatives to sendmail
On Mon, 4 Jun 2007, Douglas Allan Tutty wrote: Hello, I'm totally new to OBSD and have it installed on my 486 which acts basically like a slim client allowing me to ssh in to my main box. OBSD comes with sendmail which I have never knowingly used before and while it works as-is for local mail delivery, I thought I'd set it up to send non-local mail to my main box as a smarthost. However, sendmail is a very steep and tall learning curve. I'm coming from Debian (which no longer installes with 32 MB ram) so I'm used to exim. I know that exim is GPL. I'm wondering if there are other BSD-licensed MTAs. While in this case, setting up outgoing mail isn't important, I'm using the box also as a test-bed to see how well OBSD would work instead of Debian on my main box. Being able to configure mail in that case is quite important, since without it I can't ask for help :) Thanks, Doug. Hello Doug, Exim is fine, see man 8 mailwrapper and man 5 mailer.conf Best regards John

No there not, but if I were you I'd burn a single session CD using cd40.iso and a separate CD containing the packages. Alternatively you could just burn cd40.iso, install and then use pkg_add to grab whatever packages you want off whatever site is convenient to you. Best regards John.

Is it possible to fix OpenBSD 4.0 system without compiling anything, by e. g. somehow rewriting the file that contains the kernel? I have never compiled OpenBSD, ports etc. and don't have time to study all the theory around OpenBSD - I am sure if I attempt to recompile my system, I could easily screw it up completely. Not really. Someone here could provide you with a kernel, but you'd have to trust that person not to put any backdoors in. Compiling -stable is not that difficult, really. It does require some disk space, but once you have sufficient space it's quite easy.

When I run it between a system on the DMZ and the router - the same thing. I tried disabling pf and get the same results. Running iperf between the boxes on the LAN I get proper results - of course. My only ideas are 1) failing NIC 2) NIC Drivers?? 3) routing issues? The second symptom is that periodically my vpn will drop throughout the day - corresponding with this (I think) whenever I run a continual ping to somewhere(anywhere) on the internet it will work fine any number of times but then it'll stop - sit there and hang for 10 seconds perhaps and then start back up IF it is a failing NIC - could one bad NIC make the others act up (interrupts?) I'm not sure I made myself very clear on this - I'm having a very hard time tracking this down. Any ideas or suggestions on investigation this would be appreciated. Any beautifully simple solutions even more so :) I REALLY want to figure out what's going on instead of simply wiping the box clean. Think of all the knowledge value :| Thanks a lot...

The login name may be up to 31 characters long. For compatibility with legacy software, a login name should start with a letter and consist solely of letters, numbers, dashes and underscores. The login name must never begin with a hyphen (`-'); also, it is strongly suggested that neither uppercase characters nor dots (`.') be part of the name, as this tends to confuse mailers. No field may contain a colon as this has been used historically to separate the fields in the user database. Is that not long enough? Regards John.
