It works but it doesn't help much. The hda9 partition is there, lsparts
lists all partitions like I see them in cfdisk but I cannot get
MDK82-lilo to accept hda9 as boot partition.

Thanks Charlie for the hint.

Now I use partimage to save all partitions to CD-R and wipe the whole
disk. Hopefully this will be a cure. But what if .....

Someone there who knows a good tutorial about BSD-partitioning? I read
the docu at OpenBSD.org and after more than 8 years of Linux I did not
understand anything.
