FAQ 4.3 describes various ways you can set up a computer for multiboot.  Based
solely on your e-mail, it appears you have not read this FAQ.  If you have
taken no specific action to allow multibooting, other than installing two
operating systems, then you can use the first method in that FAQ, titled
Setting active partitions.

I'd written:

 FAQ 4.3 describes various ways...

That should be FAQ 4.8.  Sorry for the typo.

There are documents available off of the OpenBSD website that explain how to
set up a dual boot system.
