It's probably much more straightforward to run kvm-qemu instead of XEN. OpenBSD works fine as a guest using kvm/kvm-qemu and a CPU which supports hardware virtualization (egrep "svm|vmx" /proc/cpuinfo). On the first boot after install, boot into ukc and disable mpbios. Afterwards, disable mpbios in /bsd with 'config' and it should work fine. > > The guest will be a firewalling-router with ospfd, bind, openvpn and 6 > ethernet-interfaces.
