Hello,

I have linux and openbsd installed on a single drive. Linuxy fdisk shows

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1               1       24017   192916521    5  Extended
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/sda2   *       24018       30401    51279480   a6  OpenBSD
/dev/sda5               1         127     1020064+  83  Linux
/dev/sda6            2708       23506   167067936   83  Linux
/dev/sda7             128        2707    20723818+  83  Linux
/dev/sda8           23507       24017     4104576   82  Linux swap / Solaris

The linuxy menu.lst shows

title        OpenBSD
rootnoverify (hd0,1)
savedefault
makeactive
chainloader    +1

After a clean install, the openbsd installer says: "installboot: broken MBR"

Then GRUB protests when booting openbsd with error 13: "Invalid or
unsupported executable format"

I have seen the "does not end on cylinder boundary." warning of fdisk
a number of times in the past, and yet I was able to boot in openbsd.
I think it must be a linux bogus.

Any help will be appreciated.

T.
