The entire multibooting section needs work and testing.

Reportedly, the GRUB 2 instructions don't work with GPT.
Daniel Blevins invested a lot of time but only got rEFInd to work.
The Windows section is probably outdated as well.

Unless somebody steps up to confirm that things are ok as they
are or to update and fix them, the section will be removed.

them on the pf and smtpd faq pages, but the main faq contains a variety

"common installation problems":
- 2 mostly fdisk related questions
- 2 signify issues
- ssh-keygen takes too long (here's a nickel, kid...)
- how do i boot without floppy or cd rom. two signify related questions, ssh-keygen taking too long + how to boot
if you don't have a floppy or cdrom. use usb and if you're working with
arm boards or something, you really do need to read INSTALL.<plat>.

the signify questions about self-signed images and verification failures
seem reasonable and I'll happily add something back if so desired.

for now, turn this into a question on fdisk on amd64 and i386 to
simplify the answers and lose the numbering as a bonus.

  sections on vista/7 that we might want to remove, but they might be

improve the way file sets are added after install using tar(1) by passing
a positional argument to this command which sets the working directory where
file sets content will be extracted; this change matches what upgrade guide
suggests, seems to be preferred by a number of people, and it is the most
generic way of doing things.

updates: recent windows can resize partitions, openbsd can boot extended,
multibooting on windows 7 requires an admin shell, and maybe adding some
delay to the boot menu so that you can see it.

Swap partition is no longer needed for install, and thus, not needed in
OpenBSD.  While at it, remove "recommended" sizes of 32M or 64M for a
swap partition, I can't think of any reason why they are recommeneded,
the issue is far more complicated than any single number can help.
Add reference to swapping to file later if needed.

The way the "gray boxes" mess up the PDF rendering has annoyed me for
years.  This makes it work much better.  I'm still not sure I like 'em,
but the PDFs will be better.  Thanks to Tom@ for spinning a test PDF for
me (and all the PDFs he's made over the years, too), and for his
constructive suggestion about alternative ways to do this, which I've
ignored. :)

Couple ideas from Todd Miller:
  1) BootPart program, which fetchs OpenBSD PBR for NT/2k/XP systems
  2) point out that reinstalling will reinstall boot, which will make the
saved PBR wrong, so it must be refetched.  millert@, tom@ and krw@ have
made a change which will hopefully render this a non-issue (yay team! 8-)

A funny thing happened on the way to reving for 3.4...  I decided I didn't
like the organization of this document.  Enter snowball effect.
Rewrite overview into a true overview.  Better discussion of boot vs.
install media.  Explainations of options, etc.  Lay groundwork for more
platform support.  Renumber document (*sigh*...3.4 will bring another
partial renumber). Sections 4.1 through 4.4 have been substantially
reworked.

Sync TOC with headers, standardize header layout after discussion with
Tom Cosgrove and JMC@ (first word capitalized, no trailing period.  YES,
this is debatable, no "perfect" answer, but one answer beats the random
way it was).  Lots of constructive input from Tom Cosgrove, thanks!

Note: this is *NOT* the 3.4 document.
