I just install 9.3 using GPT with an amd64 9.3 USB image, it works fine, but I got a warning message when I use etcher to make a bootable USB with amd64 9.3 ISO:

Missing partition table
It looks like this is not a bootable image. The image does not appear to contain a partition table, and might not be recognized or bootable by your device.

and my laptop can't boot with it. Do you install with amd64 9.3 ISO?

normally with the default options it just doesn't boot.
Also do you know if i can use the amdgpu driver for my radeon r7 240 ?
OpenBSD uses the radeon driver, can i change it or i have to compile the kernel ?

I found the easiest way if you multibooting to create an emtpy space and with the installer go to the Utility menu partitioning the disk create new partition netbsd type
and after start the installation from the top menu.
