yeah, that looks fine... How about your disklabel output? I can think of a few things you could do wrong to do that... ERR M indicates that biosboot got installed, but what it was told was the location of /boot is...uh...not. How that's happening...not sure. But, we know the MBR is good, the PBR is good, but what the PBR is pointing at is not. Next step would be to try 5.0-rel to make sure it is not a recent regression. The good thing about how OpenBSD handles flash disks is if something is broke for flash disks, it is typically going to break everywhere (I hope). Nick.
