Now I've been able to look at this more. My computer doesn't support booting from USB, so I reupdated; from the CD this time. I get the error Message that "installboot: /mnt/usr/mdec/biosboot extends Beyond sector 268435455. OpenBSD might not boot." I'm dual booting with Windows using Windows' boot loader first. Is there something new regarding booting in 6.1 so that I have to create a new entry in the Windows boot load with a new pbr?
