Now that this topic has come up on the lists, I am just wondering are there
some non-externally powered usb drives that OpenBSD can boot from? Would be
helpful to run and test -current on external drive, and have the release
version on internal drive.
Just to be clear, I for one didn't

Hi all,
i'm attempting to diagnose if there was a problem with installing
OpenBSD to an external USB hard disk or not. The disk is a Western
Digital 2TB disk, should it matter. Needless to say, the install went
fine on to the disk; all the sets were unpacked, and I rebooted the
machine as per
BSD4.2 fs on / ?

This should be an hardware issue, I've used an usb external drive with
success. whith a dell A6 or A7 version of Dell bios, boot usb enabled, with a
(double-usb) eternal drive, using BSD4.2 filesystem.
if other BSD can boot, you can eliminate bios upgrade solution ;)

This is a long shot, but could this be related to the USB drive not
having settled in soon enough?
I'm assuming your USB drive has an external power supply, right? It is
a know problem with some external self-powered USB drives and
USB-to-SATA/IDE adapters that some of these can start acting up

In the past, I had installed OpenBSD (I think it was 4.7, either i386 or
amd64) to an external usb drive, powered from the usb port. It would
appear to install ok, start the boot process, then about halfway through
