Hello,
I have a machine that I'm not able to upgrade
because the machine won't boot newer kernels.
They're hanging right after SATA init and it
also displays different SATA/pciide chip model
(VT6420) than with 3.8.
I've tried 3.9-release from official CD, 4.0-release
and 4.1-release kernels and

Hi folks,

I've often found it won't ever boot from CD if there is a valid MBR
on the HD without using the menu (that makes it boot faster...)

Don't know about the current status of OpenBSD on these fine laptops,
but you will probably need to boot to UKC and disable ahc0. This change

Upgrading is a convenient way to bring your OpenBSD system up to
the most recent version. However, the results are not intended to
precisely match the results of a wipe-and-reload installation.
Old library files in particular are not removed i

I have both ath and ral, ral is almost alway lower strength but better
supported.
ath is better strength but it is buggy at best in g mode.

Thanks to everyone for your help. I was able to boot OpenBSD and am now

This distro has amazingly detailed documentation! :)

no. you're correct. no install sets (base40.tgz, comp40.tgz, etc)
or packages are in the cdXY.iso.
