Hi there,
I've been trying for some time to get flashboot (openBSD based) to
work, but no success (even after having it posted to their mailing-list).
I'm trying to get it to boot on a PC-engines WRAP board (soekris-like
stuff0 , using a 6gb microdrive (CF interface) which is written by a
i386 openBSD machine. After booting the WRAP board, it says it can't
find an OS.
PC Engines WRAP.1C/1D/1E v1.08
640 KB Base Memory
130048 KB Extended Memory
01F0 Master 848A HMS360606D5CF00
Phys C/H/S 11905/16/63 Log C/H/S 747/255/63 LBA
Using drive 0, partition 3;
No O/S
Maybe someone over here might be able to help me, I've done this:

You can use the 'b' command to change this.
