It took a few days, back and forth, as time permitted, but I have this old blade, with two 15 GB drives, and 2 GB RAM running nicely with OpenBSD 5.6. I think that I have the RELEASE version. I have installed apline mailer, firefox, R, nano, python, anjuta.
It's pretty good. I am trying to support your efforts a bit; I bought the book by Lucas, and I setup a small monthly donation to the OpenBSD foundation. I use this machine purely for pleasure. I am so impressed with what OpenBSD has accomplished. Richard Thornton console is keyboard/display Copyright (c) 1982, 1986, 1989, 1991, 1993 The Regents of the University of California.
