I've not done this since 2009, but found in my notes:

# The OpenBSD section of the menu.lst config file, for GRUB.
#
## You would like to use:
# root (hd1,1,a)
# kernel --type=openbsd /bsd
#
# But OpenBSD passes bios & kernel parameters with its own bootloader,
# the first stage of which is installed in the partition boot record,
# and in turn calls /boot, which in turn loads kernel /bsd. So just
# use the GRUB chainloader instead:
#
## OpenBSD
title OpenBSD
root (hd1,1)
makeactive
chainloader +1

Naturally, your root device may vary.
