Not that I have an issue with this now, but would it be possible to extend the current A6 partition and then update the disklabel accordingly, if there is free space is directly after, or could/will this hose stuff? I would feel more comfortable with this approach, keeping all OpenBSD stuff within the A6 in order not to (or less likely)


Unmount the parttition to be grown, use disklabel(8) to enlarge it to the
desired size then use growfs(8).

Well, I was referring to the OBSD MBR partition (of type A6) (aka BIOS partitions), a' la fdisk(8). Maybe a bit unclear on that.

So, basically, I wondered if it would be possible to extend

  MBR:  |....|A6 partition..|Unpartitioned|...|
  OBSD:      |.|wd0a|..|wd0f|

into

  MBR:  |....|A6 partition................|...|
  OBSD:      |.|wd0a|..|wd0f|wd0g|wd0h|...|
