@loppefaaret: He’s running OpenBSD, The kernel is in /. Still this is a good suggestion.

When you did your install, did you auto partition or did you roll your own. Auto Partitioning would have made a small root partition at the beginning of the disk. If there is a 2Gb Limit to where the soekris can boot from, Auto Partitioning would have insured that the kernel was within that limit.
