Yes, I had this same problem with Toshiba/Kingston 128MB.  They do not
handle Multiple IO properly or some such.  There is a patch that can
be made to the boot loader on OpenBSD to force the bootloader to use
only read one block at a time.  

I didn't have the patience for that fix, so I went to Sandisk media.
