| Dear fellows, i have two disks, my first disk (wd0) is running XP, my second (wd1) is running openbsd 3.9. In order to boot openbsd from windows boot manager, i did the following: $ dd if=/dev/rwd1a of=obsd.pbr bs=512 count=1 /* copied to windows c:\ and added the following line on boot.ini */ c:\obsd.pbr="OpenBSD" When i turn on the machine, i just get the selection screen. After selecting openbsd, nothing is showed. The screen is totally black with a blink cursor on top left corner. Does anybody have any ideia why it does not work. PS: Initially i believed it was because of XP and OBSD are on different HD, is it any sense? Thanks in advance. |
