1.1 deraadt 30: To get the files for this release:
31: <ul>
1.7 deraadt 32: <li><strong>Order a CDROM from our ordering system.</strong>
33: If you want to try to get a bookstore local to you to carry it,
34: have them order<br>
35: <font color=#e00000>ISBN 0-9683637-0-9</font>.
1.1 deraadt 36: <li>Briefly read the rest of this document.
1.9 deraadt 37: <li>Have a look at <a href=errata22.html>The 2.2 Errata page</a> for a list of bugs
1.4 weingart 38: and workarounds.

41:
42: All applicable copyrights and credits can be found in the applicable
43: file sources found in the files src.tar.gz and srcsys.tar.gz.
44: <p>
45: Following this are the instructions if you had purchased a CDROM set
1.3 deraadt 46: from <a href=orders.html>http://www.OpenBSD.org/orders.html</a>,
47: instead of attempting to do
1.1 deraadt 48: an alternate form of install. The instructions for doing an ftp (or
49: other style of) install are very similar; the CDROM instructions are
50: left intact so that you can see how much easier it would have been if
51: you had purchased a CDROM instead.
52: <p>
53: <hr>
54: Please refer to the following files on the two CDROM's for extensive
55: details on how to install OpenBSD 2.2 on your machine:
56: <p>
57: <dl>
58: <li> CD1:2.2/i386/INSTALL.i386
59: <li> CD1:2.2/arc/INSTALL.arc
60: <li> CD1:2.2/mac68k/INSTALL.mac68k
61: <li> CD1:2.2/pmax/INSTALL.pmax
62: <li> CD1:2.2/sparc/INSTALL.sparc
63: <li> CD1:2.2/mvme68k/INSTALL.mvme68k
64: <p>
65: <li> CD2:2.2/amiga/INSTALL.amiga
66: <li> CD2:2.2/hp300/INSTALL.hp300
67: <li> CD2:2.2/alpha/INSTALL.alpha
68: </dl>
69: <hr>
70: <p>
71: Quick installer information for people familiar with OpenBSD, and the
72: use of the new "disklabel -E" command. If you are at all confused when
73: installing OpenBSD, read the relevant INSTALL.* file as listed above!
74: <p>
75: <h3><font color=#e00000>i386:</font></h3>
76: <p>
77: Play with your BIOS options, and see if you can enable booting off a
78: CD; try using CD1. If not, write CD1:2.2/i386/floppy22.fs to a
79: floppy, then boot that. If you are mixing OpenBSD with another
80: operating system, you will surely need to read the INSTALL.i386
81: document.
82: <p>
1.5 weingart 83: To make a floppy under MS-DOS, use /2.2/tools/rawrite.exe. Under
1.16 wvdputte 84: Unix, use "dd if=<file> of=/dev/<device> bs=32k" (where device could
1.5 weingart 85: be "floppy" or "rfd0c" or "rfd0a"). Use properly formatted perfect
86: floppies with NO BAD BLOCKS or you will lose.
87: <p>
1.1 deraadt 88: <h3><font color=#e00000>ARC:</font></h3>
89: <p>
90: Using CD1, tell the BOOT ROM to load the file CD1:\2.2\arc\bsd.rd. If
1.5 weingart 91: that does not work, create a MS-DOS filesystem using your vendor's arc
1.1 deraadt 92: setup program, copy CD1:2.2/arc/bsd.rd to there and attempt to boot
93: it.
94: <p>
95: <h3><font color=#e00000>SPARC:</font></h3>
96: <p>
97: To boot off CD1, type "boot cdrom 2.2/sparc/bsd.rd", or
98: "b sd(0,6,0)2.2/sparc/bsd.rd" depending on your ROM version.
99: Alternatively, write CD1:2.2/sparc/floppy22.fs to a floppy and boot it
100: using "boot fd()" or "boot floppy" depending on your ROM version.
101: Finally, a third alternative is to write CD1:2.2/sparc/kc.fs and
1.12 aaron 102: CD1:2.2/sparc/inst.fs to two separate floppies. Then insert "kc.fs",
1.1 deraadt 103: and boot as described above. As soon as the floppy drive ejects a
104: floppy, insert "inst.fs". Answer a bunch of questions. Reboot from
105: the "kc.fs" floppy. This time, when the floppy is ejected simply
106: re-insert "kc.fs" again and answer a different set of questions.
107: <p>
108: <h3><font color=#e00000>PMAX:</font></h3>
109: <p>
110: Write the simpleroot22.fs onto the start of the disk using dd on another
111: machine. After moving the disk drive, use "boot -f rz(0,0,0)/bsd"
112: (2100/3100) or "boot 5/rz0a/bsd" (5000). Alternatively, install via
113: network as described in detail in INSTALL.pmax.
114: <p>
115: <h3><font color=#e00000>AMIGA:</font></h3>
116: <p>
117: Create BSD partitions according to INSTALL.amiga's preparation section.
118: Mount the CD2 under AmigaOS as device CD0: Next, execute the following
119: CLI command: "CD0:2.2/amiga/utils/loadbsd CD0:2.2/amiga/bsd.rd".
120: <p>
121: <h3><font color=#e00000>HP300:</font></h3>
122: <p>
123: You can boot over the network by following the instructions in
124: INSTALL.hp300.
125: <p>
126: <h3><font color=#e00000>ALPHA:</font></h3>
127: <p>
128: Your alpha must use SRM firmware (not ARC). If you have a CDROM, you
129: can try "boot -fi 2.2/alpha/bsd.rd dkaX" (use "show device" to find your
130: CDROM drive identifier). Otherwise, write CD2:2.2/alpha/floppy.fs to a
131: floppy and boot that by typing "boot dva0". If this fails, you can place
132: bsd.rd on some other device and boot it, or use the provided simpleroot.
133: <p>
134: <h3><font color=#e00000>MAC68K:</font></h3>
135: <p>
136: Boot MacOS as normal and partition your disk with the appropriate A/UX
137: configurations. Then, extract the Macside utilities from
138: CD1:2.2/mac68k/utils onto your hard disk. Run Mkfs to create your
139: filesystems on the A/UX partitions you just made. Then, use the
140: BSD/Mac68k Installer to copy all the sets in CD1:2.2/mac68k/ onto your
141: partitions. Finally, you will be ready to configure the BSD/Mac68k
142: Booter with the location of your kernel and boot the system.
143: <p>
144: <h3><font color=#e00000>MVME68K:</font></h3>
145: <p>
146: Theo has no real idea. In the rush to get everything else done, the
147: install stuff for the mvme68k was never completed. Enough pieces are
148: included so that a really skilled person could find a way to install
149: it; perhaps using netbooting. Good luck!
150: <hr>
151: <p>
152: <h3><font color=#e00000>NOTES ABOUT THE SOURCE CODE:</font></h3>
153: <p>
154: src.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src. This file
155: contains everything you need except for the kernel sources, which are
1.12 aaron 156: in a separate archive. To extract:
1.1 deraadt 157: <p>
1.2 deraadt 158: <pre>
159: # mkdir -p /usr/src
160: # cd /usr/src
161: # tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz
162: </pre>
1.1 deraadt 163: <p>
164: srcsys.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src/sys.
165: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
166: To extract:
167: <p>
1.2 deraadt 168: <pre>
169: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys
1.11 deraadt 170: # cd /usr/src
1.2 deraadt 171: # tar xvfz /tmp/srcsys.tar.gz
172: </pre>
1.1 deraadt 173: <p>
174: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
175: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
1.3 deraadt 176: described at <a href=anoncvs.html>http://www.OpenBSD.org/anoncvs.html</a>.
177: Using these files
1.1 deraadt 178: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
179: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.
180: <p>
181: <hr>
182: <p>
183: <h3><font color=#e00000>PORTS TREE</font></h3>
184: <p>
185: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
186: <p>
1.2 deraadt 187: <pre>
188: # cd /usr
189: # tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz
190: # cd ports
191: # ls
192: ...
193: </pre>
1.1 deraadt 194: <p>
195: The ports/ subdirectory is a checkout of the OpenBSD ports tree. Go
1.3 deraadt 196: read <a href=ports.html>http://www.OpenBSD.org/ports.html</a>
197: if you know nothing about ports
1.1 deraadt 198: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
199: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
200: OpenBSD ports system.
201: <p>
202: Certainly, the OpenBSD ports system is not complete. This is because
203: the full integration of ports into the OpenBSD environment is a very
204: young project as of this release. We believe the ports that are
205: provided here are stable, but it is most important to realize that
1.19 pvalchev 206: ports will continue to grow a great deal in functionality in the
1.1 deraadt 207: future.
208: <p>
209: As we said, ports will be growing a lot in the future. The ports/
210: directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for cvs(1) if you aren't
211: familiar with CVS) checkout of our ports. As with our complete source
212: tree, we will soon be making ports available via anoncvs. So, in
213: order to keep current with the, you must make the ports/ tree
214: available on a read-write medium and update the tree with a command
215: like:
216: <p>
1.2 deraadt 217: <pre>
1.21 chris 218: # cd [portsdir]/; cvs -d anoncvsserver.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd
1.2 deraadt 219: </pre>
1.1 deraadt 220: <p>
221: [Of course, you must replace the local directory and server name here
222: with the location of your ports collection and a nearby anoncvs
223: server.]
224: <p>
225: Again, it's important to see the webpage for specific instructions as
226: this is a very new service which hasn't yet been ironed out
227: completely.
228: <p>
229: Finally, despite ports' youth, help is never far. If you're
230: interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
231: would like to know more, the mailing list ports@openbsd.org is a good
232: place to know.
