Thank you for your kind replys.
Unfortunately the bios does not allow to make that configuration.
It seams that I can not try OpenBSD in the internal disk.
I should have been more intelligent when I brought the laptop and checked the bios.
Always learning :)
I will keep “training” in an external disk and I will be back stronger ;)
Kind regards to all,
daniel

Do you have in your place a usb hub/ adapter with a usb2 or usb-c (32gb min) stick to plug in like an alternative destination disk to try out ?
