+title: OpenBSD Install Attempt on a Samsung Chromebook Plus
+x-toc-enable: true
+...
+
+System Configuration
+====================
+
+Hardware: Samsung Chromebook Plus XE513C24 (gru_kevin)
+
+Libreboot: 2023-04-23
+
+Operating System: OpenBSD 7.3
+
+Install Media Preparation
+=========================
+
+Follow the OpenBSD arm64 installation instructions in the link below:
+
+https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/arm64/INSTALL.arm64
+
+Write the install73.img file to a micro sdcard.  Replace "sdcard_device" below
+with the appropriate device path on your system.
+```
+# dd if=install73.img of=/dev/sdcard_device bs=1M status=progress; sync
+```
+
+Installation Attempt
+====================
+
+1. Insert the micro sdcard into the slot on the Chromebook.
+2. Power on the Chromebook.
+
+Initially things looked promising as the system automatically found the OpenBSD
+EFI image on the micro sdcard and proceeded to the OpenBSD boot prompt. However
+there was a strange display issue where the first character on each row of the
+display was missing.
+
+After a brief pause, the OpenBSD boot process continued.  A message displayed
+indicating an error opening random.seed but continued to load the OpenBSD
+kernel.  Unfortunately the system then froze indefinitely.  See screen shot
+below.
