It really is amazing how much the install is genuinely loved on
OpenBSD. I think there are other distributions out there where the
installer is liked or even praised, but I would describe my feelings
and what I see here as love. It is always a pleasure when I have the
chance to show someone the ins

or
Use (W)hole disk, use the (O)penBSD area, or (E)dit the MBR? [OpenBSD]
I would like empty in Square brackets[ ], user should input w/o/e here, only

The installation routine has been thoughtfully designed and does exactly
as intended. OpenBSD caters to the craftsman, not the casual user. If a
user is not committed to a high level of responsibility (and freedom),
install-time is a great time for a wake-up call. I doubt Leonardo will
