2·3 months agoNice article, and yes, I agree with cgd(8) and the installer :)
I was able to setup cgd(8) but that was not easy. I had tp print out that chapter and scribble some notes for install on a 2nd device. But as another article said, you get a great sense of accomplishment once you get NetBSD up and running !
1·5 months agoYou will find both are very similar to each other, especially for common tasks. See: https://www.openbsd.org/faq/
I have OpenBSD on a R51e and had it on a T61. No issues except sleep and resume. R51e fails, T61 works except on resume you loose your USB ports.
Now NetBSD works great on the T61, no issues. The R51e I kept with OpenBSD.
Also note this quote from OpenBSD: “… only easy and critical security fixes are backported to i386”
Nice, but how did I miss this undeadly article!
Maybe post the question here:

Someone there may want it for parts.
