1.1 deraadt 29: To get the files for this release:
30: <ul>
1.7 deraadt 31: <li><strong>Order a CDROM from our ordering system.</strong>
32: If you want to try to get a bookstore local to you to carry it,
33: have them order<br>
34: <font color=#e00000>ISBN 0-9683637-0-9</font>.
1.1 deraadt 35: <li>Briefly read the rest of this document.
1.9 deraadt 36: <li>Have a look at <a href=errata22.html>The 2.2 Errata page</a> for a list of bugs
1.4 weingart 37: and workarounds.

41: All applicable copyrights and credits can be found in the applicable
42: file sources found in the files src.tar.gz and srcsys.tar.gz.
43: <p>
44: Following this are the instructions if you had purchased a CDROM set
1.3 deraadt 45: from <a href=orders.html>http://www.OpenBSD.org/orders.html</a>,
46: instead of attempting to do
1.1 deraadt 47: an alternate form of install. The instructions for doing an ftp (or
48: other style of) install are very similar; the CDROM instructions are
49: left intact so that you can see how much easier it would have been if
50: you had purchased a CDROM instead.
51: <p>
52: <hr>
53: Please refer to the following files on the two CDROM's for extensive
54: details on how to install OpenBSD 2.2 on your machine:
55: <p>
56: <dl>
57: <li> CD1:2.2/i386/INSTALL.i386
58: <li> CD1:2.2/arc/INSTALL.arc
59: <li> CD1:2.2/mac68k/INSTALL.mac68k
60: <li> CD1:2.2/pmax/INSTALL.pmax
61: <li> CD1:2.2/sparc/INSTALL.sparc
62: <li> CD1:2.2/mvme68k/INSTALL.mvme68k
63: <p>
64: <li> CD2:2.2/amiga/INSTALL.amiga
65: <li> CD2:2.2/hp300/INSTALL.hp300
66: <li> CD2:2.2/alpha/INSTALL.alpha
67: </dl>
68: <hr>
69: <p>
70: Quick installer information for people familiar with OpenBSD, and the
71: use of the new "disklabel -E" command. If you are at all confused when
72: installing OpenBSD, read the relevant INSTALL.* file as listed above!
73: <p>
74: <h3><font color=#e00000>i386:</font></h3>
75: <p>
76: Play with your BIOS options, and see if you can enable booting off a
77: CD; try using CD1. If not, write CD1:2.2/i386/floppy22.fs to a
78: floppy, then boot that. If you are mixing OpenBSD with another
79: operating system, you will surely need to read the INSTALL.i386
80: document.
81: <p>
1.5 weingart 82: To make a floppy under MS-DOS, use /2.2/tools/rawrite.exe. Under
1.16 wvdputte 83: Unix, use "dd if=<file> of=/dev/<device> bs=32k" (where device could
1.5 weingart 84: be "floppy" or "rfd0c" or "rfd0a"). Use properly formatted perfect
85: floppies with NO BAD BLOCKS or you will lose.
86: <p>
1.1 deraadt 87: <h3><font color=#e00000>ARC:</font></h3>
88: <p>
89: Using CD1, tell the BOOT ROM to load the file CD1:\2.2\arc\bsd.rd. If
1.5 weingart 90: that does not work, create a MS-DOS filesystem using your vendor's arc
1.1 deraadt 91: setup program, copy CD1:2.2/arc/bsd.rd to there and attempt to boot
92: it.
93: <p>
94: <h3><font color=#e00000>SPARC:</font></h3>
95: <p>
96: To boot off CD1, type "boot cdrom 2.2/sparc/bsd.rd", or
97: "b sd(0,6,0)2.2/sparc/bsd.rd" depending on your ROM version.
98: Alternatively, write CD1:2.2/sparc/floppy22.fs to a floppy and boot it
99: using "boot fd()" or "boot floppy" depending on your ROM version.
100: Finally, a third alternative is to write CD1:2.2/sparc/kc.fs and
1.12 aaron 101: CD1:2.2/sparc/inst.fs to two separate floppies. Then insert "kc.fs",
1.1 deraadt 102: and boot as described above. As soon as the floppy drive ejects a
103: floppy, insert "inst.fs". Answer a bunch of questions. Reboot from
104: the "kc.fs" floppy. This time, when the floppy is ejected simply
105: re-insert "kc.fs" again and answer a different set of questions.
106: <p>
107: <h3><font color=#e00000>PMAX:</font></h3>
108: <p>
109: Write the simpleroot22.fs onto the start of the disk using dd on another
110: machine. After moving the disk drive, use "boot -f rz(0,0,0)/bsd"
111: (2100/3100) or "boot 5/rz0a/bsd" (5000). Alternatively, install via
112: network as described in detail in INSTALL.pmax.
113: <p>
114: <h3><font color=#e00000>AMIGA:</font></h3>
115: <p>
116: Create BSD partitions according to INSTALL.amiga's preparation section.
117: Mount the CD2 under AmigaOS as device CD0: Next, execute the following
118: CLI command: "CD0:2.2/amiga/utils/loadbsd CD0:2.2/amiga/bsd.rd".
119: <p>
120: <h3><font color=#e00000>HP300:</font></h3>
121: <p>
122: You can boot over the network by following the instructions in
123: INSTALL.hp300.
124: <p>
125: <h3><font color=#e00000>ALPHA:</font></h3>
126: <p>
127: Your alpha must use SRM firmware (not ARC). If you have a CDROM, you
128: can try "boot -fi 2.2/alpha/bsd.rd dkaX" (use "show device" to find your
129: CDROM drive identifier). Otherwise, write CD2:2.2/alpha/floppy.fs to a
130: floppy and boot that by typing "boot dva0". If this fails, you can place
131: bsd.rd on some other device and boot it, or use the provided simpleroot.
132: <p>
133: <h3><font color=#e00000>MAC68K:</font></h3>
134: <p>
135: Boot MacOS as normal and partition your disk with the appropriate A/UX
136: configurations. Then, extract the Macside utilities from
137: CD1:2.2/mac68k/utils onto your hard disk. Run Mkfs to create your
138: filesystems on the A/UX partitions you just made. Then, use the
139: BSD/Mac68k Installer to copy all the sets in CD1:2.2/mac68k/ onto your
140: partitions. Finally, you will be ready to configure the BSD/Mac68k
141: Booter with the location of your kernel and boot the system.
142: <p>
143: <h3><font color=#e00000>MVME68K:</font></h3>
144: <p>
145: Theo has no real idea. In the rush to get everything else done, the
146: install stuff for the mvme68k was never completed. Enough pieces are
147: included so that a really skilled person could find a way to install
148: it; perhaps using netbooting. Good luck!
149: <hr>
150: <p>
151: <h3><font color=#e00000>NOTES ABOUT THE SOURCE CODE:</font></h3>
152: <p>
153: src.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src. This file
154: contains everything you need except for the kernel sources, which are
1.12 aaron 155: in a separate archive. To extract:
1.1 deraadt 156: <p>
1.2 deraadt 157: <pre>
158: # mkdir -p /usr/src
159: # cd /usr/src
160: # tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz
161: </pre>
1.1 deraadt 162: <p>
163: srcsys.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src/sys.
164: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
165: To extract:
166: <p>
1.2 deraadt 167: <pre>
168: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys
1.11 deraadt 169: # cd /usr/src
1.2 deraadt 170: # tar xvfz /tmp/srcsys.tar.gz
171: </pre>
1.1 deraadt 172: <p>
173: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
174: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
1.3 deraadt 175: described at <a href=anoncvs.html>http://www.OpenBSD.org/anoncvs.html</a>.
176: Using these files
1.1 deraadt 177: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
178: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.
179: <p>
180: <hr>
181: <p>
182: <h3><font color=#e00000>PORTS TREE</font></h3>
183: <p>
184: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
185: <p>
1.2 deraadt 186: <pre>
187: # cd /usr
188: # tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz
189: # cd ports
190: # ls
191: ...
192: </pre>
1.1 deraadt 193: <p>
194: The ports/ subdirectory is a checkout of the OpenBSD ports tree. Go
1.25 jasper 195: read <a href=faq/faq15.html>http://www.OpenBSD.org/faq/faq15.html</a>
1.3 deraadt 196: if you know nothing about ports
1.1 deraadt 197: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
198: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
199: OpenBSD ports system.
200: <p>
201: Certainly, the OpenBSD ports system is not complete. This is because
202: the full integration of ports into the OpenBSD environment is a very
203: young project as of this release. We believe the ports that are
204: provided here are stable, but it is most important to realize that
1.19 pvalchev 205: ports will continue to grow a great deal in functionality in the
1.1 deraadt 206: future.
207: <p>
208: As we said, ports will be growing a lot in the future. The ports/
209: directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for cvs(1) if you aren't
210: familiar with CVS) checkout of our ports. As with our complete source
211: tree, we will soon be making ports available via anoncvs. So, in
212: order to keep current with the, you must make the ports/ tree
213: available on a read-write medium and update the tree with a command
214: like:
215: <p>
1.2 deraadt 216: <pre>
1.24 deraadt 217: # cd [portsdir]/; cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd
1.2 deraadt 218: </pre>
1.1 deraadt 219: <p>
220: [Of course, you must replace the local directory and server name here
221: with the location of your ports collection and a nearby anoncvs
222: server.]
223: <p>
224: Again, it's important to see the webpage for specific instructions as
225: this is a very new service which hasn't yet been ironed out
226: completely.
227: <p>
228: Finally, despite ports' youth, help is never far. If you're
229: interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
230: would like to know more, the mailing list ports@openbsd.org is a good
231: place to know.
