Compaq Evo N800v notebook has no boot from USB device option on its BIOS.
Is there any way to add boot from USB option to this option so that I can
boot my Linux from an external HDD ?

Hi,
I tried searching the openbsd-mobile archives, google web and groups,
and asking around a bit, but there doesnt seem to be much, if any,
reports on how OpenBSD behaves on the N800v. I've also read the
official i386-laptop.html, and afaik the N800-models are very similar
to the discontinued M700-models, but its long since I worked with
those. Are anyone who've followed this series more carefully than me
the last year or two able to say or mean anything about how well the
N800v is supported?
Also, any hints on other nice laptops with SXGA graphics that weight
less than 3 kg and works well with OpenBSD?
Thanks for any tips,
- Eirik
