That's the "good" thing about OpenBSD.  There's a definite subset of
allegedly supported hardware which actually works out of the box, and you
just have to guess what it is, because you're not likely to get much
support.  I had a fairly standard Intel machine which crashes during boot
with their install disk (both 2.4 and 2.5).  My bug reports have been
completely ignored....
