Cannot Boot with Intel D201GLY Motherboard

Disk is 120GB PATA IDE

dmesg, fdisk output, and disklabel output are all attached
OpenBSD.PDR is also attached

I have Googled for problems/answers, and still run into a dead end.

There must be a requirement which is not stated in the documentation,
which I am not following.  Please help.

(I am an experienced OpenBSD user, having used OpenBSD continuously
since 1998, and having built my own kernels/userland, and also have
built OpenBSD for embedded systems.)

The instructions for booting from NTLDR (Windows 2000) do not work.
As soon as the messages get to the CPU, the system reboots.  Booting
never works, either from the OpenBSD partition, or from NTLDR from
Windows 2000.  I have included my OpenBSD.PDR file for examination.

Originally, my OpenBSD partition was #4 in fdisk.  I added the #1
partition, and had both #1 and #4 set to "a6" for OpenBSD.  That
didn't work.  I then chose only #1 partition to be "a6" for OpenBSD,
and #4 partition was set to "da" for "No Filesystem".  That also
didn't work.  Please note that my entire OpenBSD / filesystem is
within the 1024 cylinder boundary.  The /boot file is totally
contained within the 1024 cylinder boundary.  It still won't boot.
It won't boot on its own, nor will it boot from the Windows 2000
NTLDR bootloader.

Also note that while my fdisk and disklabel indicates Linux
partitions, none of them have yet been installed.  I installed
Windows 2000 first, then OpenBSD.  Since I could never get OpenBSD
to boot, I have not yet installed Linux.

Please help if you can.

Thank you,
Kenneth J. Hendrickson
