Still trying to debug my #OpenBSD desktop as to why I can run any snapshot from the 13th May and before but not progress to today's date or after #473 ?? boot just fails at 255 error unknown.
Bugs have been submitted and i'll wait and see before thinking about a reinstall.
In the meantime I'm on my ThinkPad p14s Gen 1 which I was waiting for OpenBSD 7.9 to install on it but for now I upgraded #FreeBSD and everything works. Not bad considering I've not touched this laptop for a month or so. 💪
