Re: OpenBSD using NTLoader.

OpenBSD 3.6 supports NTFS (you have to recompile the kernel, though,
IIRC).

Using Ntloader is independent from NTFS support in OpenBSD, you just
can't access your NTFS partition if you don't have NTFS support in your
OpenBSD kernel.

In any case, you need a separate partition for OpenBSD.

You need to save the OpenBSD boot record and save it in a file (512
bytes), and you need to add this file as a boot option into boot.ini.

Search the archives for detailed instructions.
