OpenBSD and extended paritions

[Dale P. Smith]

Greetings List,

I am (foolishly) trying to install OpenBSD on an extended partition, well
I have it installed, I'm trying to boot it.  The obsd pdr code (biosboot)
functions similarly to lilo, where a program (installboot) writes the
c/h/s if the next stage into it.  (if you move or change /boot, you must
run installboot).  It does not use sectors, but c/h/s.

Using grub, I can read the obsd filesystem and read both /boot and /bsd.  But 
both fail.

Someone mentioned some pathches to grub for obsd.  Could you send them to
me, or give me a pointer to their location?

Till then, I'm poking around in grub and obsd bootup code, trying to find some 
way to blend the two.

Thanks!
  -Dale
