I have a question about partitioning in fdisk. In the case of efi/gpt install OpenBSD automaticaly creates an efi partition wih an offset of 64 and a size of 460k. I recently installed OpenBSD on a rockpro64 emmc disk. It had been a while since I had reinstalled and I just did most of it off the top of my head. I did quickly skim through INSTALL.arm64 to create the install media whith regard to u-boot. Everything seemed fine, I proceeded to copy u-boot to the OpenBSD installed emmc drive so that it can boot whithout the install media which is located on an sd-card. That is when the trouble started. The dd command that is mentioned in INSTALL.arm64 overwrites part of the efi partition. After fumbling around a bit I remembered that in the past I would create the efi partition at an offset of 32768 and a size of 32768(16MB) and the OpenBSD partition would then start at an offset of 65536. I reinstalled using these parameters and now everything is good.
I can't find this mentioned anywhere in INSTALL.arm64. And it doesn't seem to be a problem when creating the install media on an sd-card. Am I doing something wrong here? I'm curious how others handle this. Tiemen Werkman
