Re: Meaning of '+', '*' in disk: hd0+ hd1+* hd2*

[Alexander Salmin]

The '+' character after the "hd0" indicates that the BIOS has told /boot 
that this disk can be accessed via LBA. When doing a first-time install, 
you will sometimes see a '*' after a hard disk -- this indicates a disk 
that does not seem to have a valid OpenBSD disk label on it.

What is the meaning of '+', '+*' and '*' next to each disk?
