Re: GPT should work? (was Re: Dual Booting OpenBSD vs Windows7)

OK, I should be more specific - what I got working was an OpenBSD install on a GPT disk which included Windows 7 installed in MBR mode. This involves some nasty hackery with OpenBSD fdisk, and was done at the time because I thought I'd be installing OS X on the same disk. What I haven't explic

Same for me. I heard some legends that windows 7 sp1+ boots/installs to gpt... but oops. Nope. I had already solaris and linux instlled there... i even left 1st ans 2nd partition for dummy m$ windoz but it failed... windows 8 said the same for me... m$ likes only m$dos partition table... Also have

Re: Dual Booting OpenBSD vs Windows7

The method in the OpenBSD docs is a no extra tools required method. BCDedit makes it even easier. 1) Install Windows 7/8 on an MBR disk. GPT should work but requires more effort. 2) As part of 1) create a partition for OpenBSD 3) Use OpenBSD fdisk to change partition type to A6, install on that 4)

Dear OpenBSD users, As I reported my issue was resolved by bootice and grub4dos. But on the second systems this procedure can not resolve dual booting.
