Hi Newts,
I think that the Duos supported by OpenBSD are some of the 68030 Duos.
The 280s have the 040LC chip that isn't compatible. There is a
version linux that is supposed to work with the 2300, NubusLinux
<http://nubus-pmac.sourceforge.net/> Or you could do what I did, the
easy thing :-), and find an old copy of MachTen on eBay and install it
on your 2300.
happy computing,
randy
