Doesn't installboot load the first-stage at the beginning of the OpenBSD partition according to disklabel? Grub is just replacing the MBR. I don't understand how crypto would make grub->first-stage step any different. (for that matter, I also don't understand how the first-stage can even load the second-stage /boot from an encrypted partition!!)
