OpenBSD 6.7 on PC Engines APU4D4

I just got myself a PC Engines APU4D4. I miss an OpenBSD box providing home services. It’s quite simple to install and run OpenBSD on this machine. And you can even update the BIOS from OpenBSD.

OpenBSD on the PinePhone

Installing OpenBSD on the Pinephone might seem straightforward, as the hardware is essentially just an arm-based SBC with a built in screen and modem. The Allwinner A64 SoC is supported by the OpenBSD kernel, so we can at least expect it to boot. However, no specific support for the Pinephone hardware is included in the most recent OpenBSD release, making it unlikely that we'll get much beyond output via the serial terminal. Furthermore, unlike many SBCs, the Pinephone doesn't have an on-board ethernet connection. This will make the installation slightly more complicated, as we can't install the base packages from a local network server. Nevertheless, if OpenBSD is ever going to run in a usable fashion on the Pinephone we need to start somewhere...

Let's install OpenBSD/riscv64 on QEMU

I wanted to get in on the OpenBSD/riscv64 bandwagon, but I don't have the money to spend on fancy new hardware. Fortunately, QEMU has RISC-V support. Unfortunately, I could not find any instructions to install OpenBSD on it. We'll just have to figure it out ourselves...

OpenBSD on a Lenovo Thinkpad X220.

This is going to be yet another post about installing / running OpenBSD on an old Thinkpad X220. It’s not going to be different than all of the other guides that are already out there, but my motivation and what came of it afterwards might be interesting for some folks.

Initial support for guided disk encryption in the installer.

The OpenBSD installer now has basic support for configuring disk encryption during the regular installation process. Previously, disk encryption needed to be set up manually by dropping to the shell from the installer. Initial support, likely to be expanded upon, was committed by Klemens Nanni (kn@) on March 7, 2023...

Install OpenBSD 7.3 on Proxmox (BIOS/UEFI and Cloud-init).

I thought it was an opportunity to take stock of the different methods of installing OpenBSD on our favorite hypervisor. We will consider different scenarios depending on the types of BIOS available under Proxmox (OVMF, SEABIOS); different OpenBSD installation images; and, finally, we'll talk about the thorny subject of OpenBSD's compatibility with Cloud-init...
