About the image

From the README: 

Name: OpenBSD
Author: Mike Swanson
Qemu invocation: qemu openbsd3.9-full.img
Login: root/qemu
Description: OpenBSD 3.9 with everything except the bsd.mp kernel (SMP support)
     Freshly halted after installation, so ssh key generation will take place
     after the first boot (it takes a bit of time, but you won't be bothered
     with it again if you do not use -snapshot mode) and X11 is not configured.

The first few things you should do immediately after logging in as root is read the mail that de Raadt (type mail, and then type 1 to see the message), read the afterboot manual page (type man afterboot), and create a new normal user with adduser.

If you want to use X11, you will need to configure it first. Do so by running xorgconfig as a superuser (root). It is fairly straight forward, I'll write a short run down:

  1. Select the first mouse protocol (1)
  2. n for Emulate3Buttons unless you have a mouse that doesn't have a middlebutton/wheel
  3. /dev/wsmouse for the device name (or just press Enter)
  4. most keyboards are 101/102 without Windows/Context-Menu keys and 103/104 with those extra keys (first appearing on Windows 95 PCs? almost always have a MS Windows logo printed on one and a diagram of a menu on the other)
  5. you can safely ignore XKB options with n if you don't know what they are
  6. the monitor type doesn't really matter in Qemu, I just use option 8; similar with the vsync, I've just used option 3
  7. look at the card database and select number 134, give it 2048K of video RAM (option 4)
  8. the default resolutions should be great, just say they're okay and select a default bitdepth (16-bit color is optimal in Qemu)

Now you can run startx. (xorgconfig wants to be picky and recommends looking over the xorg.conf file, though at this point it should be good enough if you went through the automatic steps correctly.) FVWM is the default window manager in OpenBSD, nothing else save for twm (very ugly!) is installed. You will need to use packages or ports to install other window managers (this is beyond the scope of the wiki, check the FAQ on the OpenBSD website). FVWM can look beautiful (as seen on the FVWM website), be extremely powerful, and generally changed however you want, though it takes a lot of work.

NOTE: After trying a few dozen guesses it turns out the root password is: qemu
