Dear Peter and all,
I could find a fix/hack for the BIOS boot problem as described.
I did not manage to file a bug report for it yet though.
After successfully installing I now have more problems such as
- zzz (suspend) and (hibernate) not working (see bug report [1])
- function keys for
Hi again.
Just a quick update.
After adding some "bogus" partitions 0 to 2 in front of openbsd paritition 3
the BIOS no longer hangs with disklabel data. I can now install, boot and run
OpenBSD from SSD on SATA.
$ doas fdisk sd0
Disk: sd0 geometry: 31130/255/63 [500118192 Sectors]
Hello again.
Thank you Peter for your feedback and describing the steps that
seem to have solved your problems so long time ago.
To be hontest, at this point in time I feel a bit reluctant to test
with two disks attached mSATA and SATA, I would rather focus
just on one disk attached via SATA.

Dear Peter and all.
Unfortunately I celebrated to early it seems. :-/
In my last post I described a hack in which I let the OpenBSD partition
start at "sector 0" in order to avoid BIOS hangup.
When I now tried this way of setup with a SSD disk instead of HDD,
after a succesful install, OpenBSD
