@shep,
thanks for the tips, =)
With LInux I find that I can read the OpenBSD partitions.

The Linux 3.7.1 'dmesg' reveals all:

sdb1: <openbsd: sdb10 sdb11 sdb12bad subpartition - ignored

Here I have the "/" partition on sdb10, swap on sdb11 and another data partition on sdb12.
(the bad "subpartition message" is for partition sdb11, the OpenBSD swap partition)

So I can mount sdb10 and sdb12 using the following /etc/fstab entries:

/dev/sdb10 /b10 ufs ufstype=44bsd,noauto,ro 0 0
/dev/sdb12 /b12 ufs ufstype=44bsd,noauto,ro 0 0

and then

mount /b10
mount /b12
