I've integrated back the OpenBSD pmap and bootstrap to a NetBSD kernel
a few months ago (pre-UVM), then I stopped working on it when I realised that
OpenBSD didn't work on my machines as well, and that getting it to work would
require large changes to the bootstrap and I didn't have time nor docs to do
it at the time.

I can provide you all my sources if you want.
What HP model do you have ? Maybe it'll boot on your machines ...
