So you could try to install 6.4 to see if you have the same problems ?
Just copied bsd.rd from 6.4 in the root of the running system and booted it. It was a litle better. My settings to fdisk, namely change of offset from 64 to 2048, were ignored, and so the automatic disklabel offered an offset of 64. My settings to disklabel were this time not ignored. I will proceed to do "fdisk -i", perhaps reinstall, perhaps not. The changing of the offset from 64 to 2048 did help: after a "hardware shutdown" I got again a bootable system, although a fsck is necessary. I wonder that no one noted this bugs before: are there no new people installing OpenBSD? Or it is a problem only with VMWare?
What ESXi version are you running ?
No idea. I must ask the hoster.
What disk controller are you showing to OpenBSD ?
sd0 Thanks Rodrigo
