OpenBSD 6.9 install

Short-ish write up of where I got to.

Thanks for the neat write up! It's the most easy to follow guide I've found yet. I've hit a bit of a snag though and I haven't a clue how to proceed.

I've got it booting the OpenBSD install medium and I've got the serial connection working but I'm getting the following:
cannot open sd0a:/etc/random.seed: No such file or directory
booting sd0a:/bsd: read header
failed(0). will try /bsd
boot>
boot>
boot>
boot> ls
drwxr-xr-x 0,0  512    .
drwxr-xr-x 0,0  512    ..
---------- 0,0  0      7.0
---------- 0,0  0      bsd.rd
---------- 0,0  0      bsd

I'm not exactly an OpenBSD expert. Is there any easy way to fix this or should I just start over? Does this indicate that I did something wrong?

What I understand from the guides is that I should be booting into the installer if everything is going well. I wonder if there is any way to trigger it.
