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.
