I've played with OpenBSD HVM a bit and I just managed to install and
boot it correctly.

Terminal emulation can be set to vt100 to obtain a barely useable
terminal (enouhg to accomplish install). You can then enable serial
console post install and access the vm via the xm command. The failure
on hard disk configuration is solved by deleting and recreating label
'a' in disklabel. Basic networking via the ne2k_pci device seems to be
working.

I'm going to do some more testing. Did you get this far? Do you know of
any specific issue I can try to reproduce?

ciao

Luca
