Hi, I am trying to install 7.1 OpenBSD and 7.3 OpenBSD together(trying to create a triple boot with Ubuntu). 1. When Both are primary partition The later install will overwrite the previously installed OpenBSD. 2. When One is on the Primary and the Other on an extended partition. The later install will overwrite the previously installed OpenBSD. Question: 1. Is there any way to install both together? or Am I missing something? Can you please guide me to make a triple boot system? Please let me know if any other information is needed.
Great video. Unfortunately, I am still a bit clueless as I need to encrypt the target partition for the OpenBSD install first, before I install. How do I do that? The instructions that I have will wipe the entire SSD....
Yes there's a difference. With UEFI if the CSM is enabled, OpenBSD will overwrite the default boot loader. More info here: www.reddit.com/r/openbsd/comments/ckviqs/comment/evr51d9/?context=3 Most of the process remains the same though. I should probably do another vid to cover UEFI part.

Are you my twin? I just installed Debian 11 on my other HDD alongside OpenBSD last night lol great video!
No way! What a coincidence :-) Debian is one of my favorite distros. I also dual boot Debian 11 with OpenBSD on one of my old Eee PC laptop.

will it be any different on uefi?

@@TheOpenBSDguy oh thanks, that would be nice :)
any guide to dual boot on windows 7?
I'm afraid that's not possible without using Grub or a third-party bootloader. Or at least I'm unware about it
