114: form of install. The instructions for doing an ftp (or other style
115: of) install are very similar; the CDROM instructions are left intact
116: so that you can see how much easier it would have been if you had
117: purchased a CDROM instead.

155: Quick installer information for people familiar with OpenBSD, and the
156: use of the "disklabel -E" command. If you are at all confused when
157: installing OpenBSD, read the relevant INSTALL.* file as listed above!
158:
1.43 bentley 159: <h3>OpenBSD/i386:</h3>
160:
1.1 deraadt 161: <p>
162: 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.
163:
164: <p>
1.4 miod 165: Use <i>CD1:3.0/i386/floppyB30.fs</i> instead for greater scsi controller
166: support, or <i>CD1:3.0/i386/floppyC30.fs</i> for better laptop support.
167:
168: <p>
1.1 deraadt 169: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to read the included INSTALL.i386 document.
170:
171: <p>
1.43 bentley 172: 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="https://man.openbsd.org/dd.1">dd(1)</a> utility. The following is an example usage of <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dd.1">dd(1)</a>, where the device could be "floppy", "rfd0c", or "rfd0a".

1.4 miod 184: At the SRM prompt, enter <i>boot -fi 3.0/alpha/bsd.rd dka6</i> where <i>dka6</i>
185: is the short name for the CDROM drive (you can check with <i>show dev</i>).
1.1 deraadt 186:
1.4 miod 187: <p>If you can't boot from CDROM, write <i>CD1:3.0/alpha/floppy30.fs</i> or
188: <i>CD1:3.0/alpha/floppyB30.fs</i> (depending on your machine) to a diskette and
189: enter <i>boot dva0</i>. Refer to INSTALL.alpha for more details.

205: Due to an error in how the CD was produced for the 3.0 Release,
1.14 horacio 206: the following modified command should be used: <i>boot cd:,OFWBOOT
1.13 drahn 207: /3.0/macppc/bsd.rd</i>.
208: This command may not work on some older New World systems,
1.14 horacio 209: iMac (Rev A - Rev C); on these machines it will be necessary to
1.13 drahn 210: copy the ofwboot and /3.0/macppc/bsd.rd to the first HFS partition on
211: the harddrive and boot using <i>boot hd:,OFWBOOT /bsd.rd</i>.

1.43 bentley 230: <h3>OpenBSD/mac68k:</h3>
231:
1.1 deraadt 232: <p>
233: Boot MacOS as normal and partition your disk with the appropriate A/UX
234: configurations. Then, extract the Macside utilities from
235: CD2:3.0/mac68k/utils onto your hard disk. Run Mkfs to create your
236: filesystems on the A/UX partitions you just made. Then, use the
237: BSD/Mac68k Installer to copy all the sets in CD2:3.0/mac68k/ onto your
238: partitions. Finally, you will be ready to configure the BSD/Mac68k
239: Booter with the location of your kernel and boot the system.

242:
1.4 miod 243: <p>
244: You can create a bootable installation tape or boot over the network.<br>
245: The network boot requires a MVME68K BUG version that supports the <i>NIOT</i>
246: and <i>NBO</i> debugger commands. Follow the instructions in INSTALL.mvme68k
247: for more details.
1.43 bentley 248:

1.4 miod 255:
256: <p>
257: The 3.0 release of OpenBSD/sparc is located on CD3. To boot off of this CD you can use one of the two commands listed below, depending on the version of your ROM.
258:
1.43 bentley 259: <blockquote><pre>

1.4 miod 264:
265: <p>
1.37 tj 266: If your sparc does not have a CD drive, you can alternatively boot from floppy. To do so you need to write "CD3:3.0/sparc/floppy30.fs" to a floppy. For more information see <a href="faq/faq4.html#4.1">this page</a>. To boot from the floppy use one of the two commands listed below, depending on the version of your ROM.

279: setup a bootable tape, or install via network, as told in the
280: INSTALL.sparc file.
1.43 bentley 281:
282: <h3>OpenBSD/sparc64:</h3>
1.4 miod 283:

288: If this doesn't work, or if you don't have a CDROM drive, you can write
289: <i>CD3:3.0/sparc64/floppy30.fs</i> to a floppy and boot it with <i>boot
290: floppy</i>.<br>
291: Make sure you use a properly formatted floppy with NO BAD BLOCKS or your install will most likely fail.
292:

354: Certainly, the OpenBSD ports system is not complete. It is doubtful it

357: on most architectures (over 1200 packages build on i386, for instance).
