Just tried to install OpenBSD 4.1 to my Soekris 4801 box but I'm having little difficulties in it.
I added the CF card to a reader and connected it to my laptop which runs openbsd. It finds the reader and the card (sd3) in it. I tried to create partitions to the disk with "disklabel -E sd3". It then listed the MS-DOS partition on the disk. I create the partitions as normal but after I quit writing the changes and try to make the filesystems it gives error. When using the disklabel again it lists again the MS-DOS partition so it appears that it won't write the changes to the disk at all for some reason. Any idea how to get past it? And am I correct to assume that I get my soekris working by just extracting the sets manually to the created partitions and modifying the config files? So I don't have to do anything beyond that? I got 1GB CF disk so I will have plenty of space. Also which sets can I drop? games and man sets are obvious but which x sets can I drop? Everything else besides xbase or could I drop even that?
