Yeah, in the end I did, but still couldnโ€™t get it to work. I couldnโ€™t get it to run X11. FreeBSD seems to work as long as I do not enable the radeon drivers. I think Video Ram is toast on the card.

How sucky is OpenBSD installation for the first time? I managed to boot up my old laptop (An 1.8ghz Acer from 2008-ish?), and I thought Iโ€™d give OpenBSD a crack on it. What do I need to be looking out for, coming from a MacOS / Linux background?
