It's strange because when the OS is switched off, the relays are closed (act as
a wire). I would have thought at least, you could plug cables on these
interfaces and a ping would go through.
Which benefits do you find in recycling these hardwares ? What is your usage ?

Here's a quick rundown on how I got it installed - you will need an
existing OpenBSD installation.
1. Download the FS install image.
2. Mount it in your existing OpenBSD system and edit etc/boot.conf to
set the tty to com0.
3. Write the resulting image to a USB stick.
4. Plug in your USB stick, then plug in the power.
5. When it says to press any key, do so. When the GRUB menu appears, hit 'c'.
6. Set the root device (which will likely be hd2): root (hd2)
7. Fire up the chainloader: chainloader +1
8. Boot: boot
9. ???
10. Profit!
