Which should be (typo):
http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq4.html#Multibooting

That's a great FAQ entry. Well written, comprehensive.

LOL, if you intend to use different drives for your operating systems
you can install one on each and use your BIOS boot menu (if you have
one) to choose the boot device.
IMO, this is a safe way for the neophyte (and me). It avoids any
issues of Microsoft overwriting everybody elses data on the same drive
and means there's no bootloading to organize.
Physically disconnect your Windows drive, install OpenBSD to the other drive.
OpenBSD will consider itself the master so after install, edit fstab
to make OpenBSD the slave (wd0 to wd1 for example). Reconnect your
Windows drive.
I haven't done that for a long time but I think that's how it used to go.

Best wishes.
