I put the openbsd.pbr to C: and made an entry in the C:/boot.ini After a reboot I can select the OpenBSD boot entry, but it doesn't starts I get only a black screen with some cryptical characters/symbols
Then I testet in Windows "BootPart", which was recommended in the FAQ and that says: Physical numer of disk 0 : 33fa33f9 0 : C:* type=7 <HPFS/NTFS>, size=10241406 KB, Lba Pos=63 1: C: type=a6 , size= 21213832 KB, Lba Pos=20482875 Can someone help me how to start OpenBSD correctly? --thacrazze On Wed, Jul 30, 2008 at 12:30 AM, thacrazze <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thanks!
