I cannot speak about Ubuntu, but, I currently dual boot Slackware64-current with OpenBSD 5.5 amd64. I used the Slackware install DVD to format my OpenBSD partition as type A6. Lilo plays very nice with OpenBSD. On my dual boot set-up these are my partitions using linux labels.

sda1 SWAP
sda2 /
sda3 /home
sda4 OpenBSD

Here is the little snippet that is added to the end of my /etc/lilo.conf

other = /dev/sda4
label = OpenBSD
table = /dev/sda

If you're using GRUB I suspect your labelling system, set-up will be slightly different.
