Since this problem doesn't occur in a normal installation that just followed the instructions from OpenBSD itself, perhaps you should take this up with the author of the instructions that you followed, because 1) they should understand why their directions include whatever step is causing the problem, and therefore can consider the effect of changing it, and 2) they'll want to integrate whatever fix is necessary into their directions. If the author of the instructions can't help you (or isn't responsive), then you should consider the wisdom of following unsupported directions that apparently have a bug. The question also arises of why you are using these extra instructions instead of doing a normal install. "What problem are you trying to solve?" What makes you think that these steps solve that problem? Philip Guenther
