Two points:
  • Very few people on this site run Apple hardware, & from experience, legacy Apple hardware has its own issues.
  • dmesg(8) output as you already have OpenBSD 5.0 installed?

daemonfowl, you will further your own cause & reputation on this site if you use the terminology used by everyone else. If you mean installation and/or upgrading, say just that -- "I'm trying to upgrade a "bondi blue" Imac previously running OpenBSD 5.0 to -current." This is clear & concise. Maybe your "daemon"-this & "daemon"-that phrasing is really cool from your vantage point, but most on this site don't understand it. Deciphering takes time, & it just forces unnecessary work on your readers.

Your goal is to attract others to offer insight. This is done through clarity. It's really that simple.
