Hi Joern,

OpenBSD is, unlike Linux, heavily documented. Nearly all information
you will ever need is in its man pages and/or on the website.

Some important links:
a) http://www.openbsd.org/zaurus.html
b) ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/zaurus/INSTALL.zaurus
c) http://www.openbsd.org/faq/

There are several irc channels (#openbsd), the most active ones are
on freenode and efnet. Asking questions that are documented in the FAQ
is considered impolite and a friendly RFTM will often be the answer :)

The www@ mailing list is the wrong place to ask. Subscribe to misc@
(and arm@)

Have fun with your zaurus and OpenBSD...
