2OpenBSD/MACHINE OSREV works across a broad range of standard PCs and
3clones, with a wide variety of processors and I/O bus architectures.  It
4can be expected to install and run with minimal difficulties on most
5current products.  The cases where problems may be encountered are
6typically older proprietary PCs, laptops, or specialized server boxes
7that rely on a custom BIOS to paper over implementation differences.

9OpenBSD/MACHINE OSREV supports most SMP (Symmetrical MultiProcessor)
10systems.  To support SMP operation, a separate SMP kernel (bsd.mp)
11is included with the installation file sets.
12
13The minimal configuration to install the system is 32MB of RAM and
14at least 250MB of disk space to accommodate the `base' set.
15To install the entire system, at least 600MB of disk are required,
16and to run X or compile the system, more RAM is recommended.
