Summary:  cannot boot OpenBSD directly

Original Submission:  GRUB cannot boot later versions of OpenBSD directly. 
That's because

GRUB assumes the old booting protocol, so OpenBSD kernel complains of

it. Even though you can work around the problem by chainloading the

boot loader of OpenBSD, that's not desirable, because you cannot control

how to boot OpenBSD, including netboot.
