Why don't you follow official guide mentioned zillion of times everywhere around here? http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq4.html#Multibooting As well your question about boot manager is answered here http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq8.html#Bootloader plus much more details for every architecture in man pages, here for i386/amd64 http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=boot_i386&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=OpenBSD+Current&arch=i386&format=html Simply this is not OS where devs provide crappy or no documentation at all. There's everything you need so best is to start with FAQ, then dive in to man pages (like man afterboot will be pointed to you after install anyway). Nearly everything you want to ask is answered here in fine form. And yes, for multiboot if you will go step by step it will work, but be careful to not wipe out your disk ;-) > > Thanks > > Zaf
