    Hello arm@openbsd, I would like to install -current on the
    internal ssd that has macOS. I am a little unclear as to what
    disk choice I should make in the installer. The Asahi docs say
    choosing (W)hole disk option is fine
    https://asahilinux.org/2022/07/july-2022-release/ Has anyone
    tried? Would (W)hole install OpenBSD in the free space only?
    Thanks!
    <JokeMode> Assuming that you mean "free space" in the BOFH sense,
    sure. User: "I'm out of free space!" BOFH: *clickety-click*
    there, now you got lots of free space." User: "MY FILES ARE
    GONE!" BOFH: "you got lots of free space, like you asked for"
    </JokeMode> Unless something is special about that platform for
    OpenBSD, "whole disk" means "whole disk". NOT just the part you
    were aiming for. I haven't worked with that platform, but in
    general, if you want to share the disk between OSs, you will have
    to make some free space before installing OpenBSD, then create an
    OpenBSD partition in that free space.
    Well something is special here. OpenBSD will not leave all the
    "Apple"

  AN extra "not" ?

Bleach, yes. It *will* leave all "Apple" partitions intact.

    partitions intact, even when picking "(W)hole disk" in the
    installer. That will still wipe any other partitions such as
    those created by a Linux install for example.
    Multibooting is not trivial.
    True. Multibooting macOS on these machines works fine though.
    Nick.
