13OpenBSD can now be booted from a CD-ROM by holding down the 'c' key
14during reboot. If ofwboot and bsd.rd are copied to an HFS partition, it
15is possible to boot from those files.  Then install the rest of the files
16from any of the above sources.

18Note: Once an OpenBSD partition exists, it is not possible to load the
19kernel (bsd.rd) from an HFS partition on that disk.
