OpenBSD/hppa Project - Developers Resource Page

Welcome to the hppa Developers Resource Page.

Please note this does not replace http://www.openbsd.org/hppa.html. It is a resource page where developers can find development notes, technical references, and snapshot boot images. Please refer also to the TODO list, or the hardware want.html page. Contributions are welcome! (Contact mickey. )

From time to time new releases of the boot.lif for hppa will be placed on this page. Please test the latest and report back to hppa@openbsd.org.

Although full snapshots are made periodically, which are available from FTP.

Documentation

The doc archive has been gathered from various places to assist those who wish to help. (It has been gathered primarily from The Puffin Group, whose venture with HP to port hppa to linux has made this information available.
Another archive, www.openpa.net, seems to be an up and coming useful reference site as well.
