Below is my work-in-progress code to take an openbsd cdXX.iso and inject the
bare minimum necessary to autoinstall from a configuration file embedded in the
image (it also reconfigures the console to run over the serial port -
especially useful on a VM). There are no doubt better ways to do much of this
but it's enough for me for the time being.
You will need an answers file. To automatically partition you will need to
include this answer:
URL to autopartitioning template for disklabel = file:/disklabel.template
