Hi everyone ! Up to now I have failed to do what the header says and I would love to know the reason, probably I am missing an/some important step(s).
The hardware: MacBook Pro mid 2012 with EFI, a single 480GB SSD and 16GB RAM. The preps: Installed latest MacOS X (I am using the new “Apple file system”), encrypted the drive using FileVault, GPT partitioned the drive in three equal Partitions using disk utility. The target: Triple boot Mac OS X, OpenBSD and DragonFly BSD from the same drive (there are quite a few reasons for this, do not call me a masochist, at least not in public). The problem: As I, of course, do not intend to use the whole disk for OpenBSD, I choose “E” at the prompt which asks so. As expected, fdisk is summoned. I then mark, according to the instructions, my second partition, where I want my OpenBSD installation to sit, as an active A06 partition and exit, saving my progress. I would expect the installer to summon disklabel, which does not happen. It complains that no OpenBSD active partition is present. I can do that over and over again and there is no way that I go beyond that point. Am I missing something really stupid ? am I in a no-go zone because of the encrypted drive? Is this a bug? ANY comments and suggestions appreciated ! Thanks in advance ! Raymundo.-
