I dualboot OpenBSD-3.1 and WinME that shipped with my VAIO PCG-SR17 using
OS-BS. Been doing so since 2.8 or 2.9. I keep meaning to put up a page on how
I got it all running (no built-in floppy, CD or NIC on this laptop; USB
floppy
and PCMCIA DVD-ROM/Cardbus NIC were all I had to work with) but I haven't got
there yet. My submissions to www@openbsd.org and openbsd-mobile@monkey.org
containing the dmesg/XF86Config-4 have apparently not been noticed yet.

OS-BS:
