No Address Associated.

A networking problem of some type. Are you getting an address via DHCP?
Are you overriding the dns server to a program running on that computer?
Is the dns server responding?

OpenBSD *does* run your networking configs, but there may be problems.

I do think it is worth running the shell and dhclient em0 first. But,
if that does work, then I highly recommend trying to figure out why that
failed.

An important hint is the first or second question is "which disk is your
root disk". When you answer that, it mounts that partition to /mnt,
then looks at the network configuration in /mnt/etc/hostname.if and
/mnt/etc/resolv.* Those files may be bogus for some reason.

It is easier to write an incorrect program than understand a correct one.
