128: Following this are the instructions which you would have on a piece of
129: paper if you had purchased a CDROM set instead of doing an alternate
130: form of install. The instructions for doing an ftp (or other style
131: of) install are very similar; the CDROM instructions are left intact
132: so that you can see how much easier it would have been if you had
133: purchased a CDROM instead.

157: Quick installer information for people familiar with OpenBSD, and the
158: use of the "disklabel -E" command. If you are at all confused when
159: installing OpenBSD, read the relevant INSTALL.* file as listed above!

162: <h3><font color=#e00000>OpenBSD/i386:</font></h3>
163: <ul>
164: <p>
165: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386 release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write <i>CD1:3.0/i386/floppy30.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
166:
167: <p>
1.4 miod 168: Use <i>CD1:3.0/i386/floppyB30.fs</i> instead for greater scsi controller
169: support, or <i>CD1:3.0/i386/floppyC30.fs</i> for better laptop support.
170:
171: <p>
1.1 deraadt 172: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to read the included INSTALL.i386 document.
173:
174: <p>
1.16 miod 175: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located at <i>CD:/3.0/tools/rawrite.exe</i>. To make the boot floppy under a Unix OS, use the <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a> utility. The following is an example usage of <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>, where the device could be "floppy", "rfd0c", or "rfd0a".

For more information see <a href="faq/faq4.html#4.1">FAQ4.1</a>. To boot from the floppy use one of the two commands listed below, depending on the version of your ROM.

1.1 deraadt 369: if you know nothing about ports
370: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
371: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
372: OpenBSD ports system.
373: <p>
374: Certainly, the OpenBSD ports system is not complete. It is doubtful it
375: will ever be. However, it is growing very fast and getting more stable.
376: Almost all ports provided with this release should build without problems
377: on most architectures (over 1200 packages build on i386, for instance).
378: <p>
379: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for

382: you aren't familiar with CVS) checkout of our ports. As with our complete
383: source tree, our ports tree is available via anoncvs. So, in
384: order to keep current with it, you must make the <i>ports/</i> tree
385: available on a read-write medium and update the tree with a command
386: like:

391: <p>
392: [Of course, you must replace the local directory and server name here
393: with the location of your ports collection and a nearby anoncvs
394: server.]
395: <p>
396: Note that most ports are available as packages through ftp. Updated
397: packages for the 3.0 release will be made available if problems arise.
398: <p>
399: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
