OpenBSD how-to: Installing GRUB and dual-booting with Windows

  2008-11-23 04:30:03
You theoretically can use the Windows bootloader to dual-boot with OpenBSD 4.4, but since I had already killed it out on my most recent installation and didn't have a Windows XP disc to restore it, I turned to GRUB, the bootloader I always use with Linux. GRUB is one of many applications we associate with GNU/Linux but which is also available as a precompiled package that's quite usable with OpenBSD, though not without its quirks. If I can make it work, you can too.
