In the absence of those running on the amd64 platform stepping up, I'll add what I can given that I don't run OpenBSD/amd64.

Given the lack of documentation about this...
Section 4 of the FAQ extensively covers installation issues which hold for all platforms. As I mentioned earlier in this thread, there were reports over the previous few days which indicated problems with installing on amd64, however, as I recall nothing definitive was described. I have no idea of what you mention above, but I will again recommend that you wait a few days & try again. You can also follow the misc@ mailing list yourself to see if anything else is reported.
