OpenBSDInstallPrelude
There are several ways to install OpenBSD onto a disk. The easiest way,
should your computer support it, is to boot off the OpenBSD CD-ROM, or
off one of the bootable CD-ROM mini images. Otherwise, you can boot
from a 3.5" 1.44MB floppy disk if your machine has a floppy drive.
If your machine supports PXE network boots, you could try to configure a
server for a network install. If your machine can boot from a USB device,
having a USB key with a minimal install is another possibility.

If you are using CD-ROM or floppy media, ensure the disk is in
the drive before starting.
Reboot the computer to begin the install. You might have to play
with your BIOS options to get the computer to boot from the
correct installation media (floppy, CD, or network/PXE) rather
than from the hard disk.
If you are installing across the network with PXE, you will need
to tell pxeboot to get the bsd.rd install kernel:
boot> boot bsd.rd
It can take a while to load the kernel from a floppy, slow speed
CD-ROM drive, or across a network, most likely more than a minute.
If some action doesn't eventually happen, or the spinning cursor
has stopped and nothing further has happened, either your boot
floppy is bad or you are having hardware problems. If trying
another floppy disk doesn't help, try booting after disabling your
CPU's internal and external caches (if any). If it still doesn't
work, OpenBSD probably can't be run on your hardware. This can
probably be considered a bug, so you might want to report it. If
you do, please {:-include-:} as many details about your system
configuration as you can.
