Hi All,
Saw this and found it very interesting:
http://www.kosagi.com/w/index.php?title=Novena_Main_Page
In summary the intention is to create an open laptop computer e.g.
- All the components should have a reasonably complete set of
NDA-free documentation.
- No binary blobs should be required to boot and operate the system
for the scenarios I care about (This one is a bit tricky).
- The machine must be able to build its own firmware from source.
- The physical design should be accessible.
- The machine must be useful as a hardware and security hacking
platform.

the primary project members.)
The hardware spec. lists a Freescale iMX6 CPU, the system is currently
booting a Linux kernel.
How feasible would it be to get OpenBSD on this platform?
What would be involved it getting a (complete) OpenBSD system implemented?
(Searching didn't show me any previous discussion of novena + openbsd.)
Cheers,
Robb.
