125: <h3><font color=#0000e0>How to install</font></h3>
126: <p>
127: Following this are the instructions which you would have on a piece of
128: paper if you had purchased a CDROM set instead of doing an alternate
129: form of install. The instructions for doing an ftp (or other style
130: of) install are very similar; the CDROM instructions are left intact
131: so that you can see how much easier it would have been if you had
132: purchased a CDROM instead.
133: <p>
134:
135: <hr>
136: Please refer to the following files on the two CDROMs for extensive
137: details on how to install OpenBSD 3.0 on your machine:

156: Quick installer information for people familiar with OpenBSD, and the
157: use of the "disklabel -E" command. If you are at all confused when
158: installing OpenBSD, read the relevant INSTALL.* file as listed above!
159: <p>
160:
161: <h3><font color=#e00000>OpenBSD/i386:</font></h3>
162: <ul>
163: <p>
164: 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.
165:
166: <p>
1.4 miod 167: Use <i>CD1:3.0/i386/floppyB30.fs</i> instead for greater scsi controller
168: support, or <i>CD1:3.0/i386/floppyC30.fs</i> for better laptop support.
169:
170: <p>
1.1 deraadt 171: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to read the included INSTALL.i386 document.
172:
173: <p>
174: To make a boot floopy 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".
175:
176: <ul><pre>
177: # <strong>dd if=<file> of=/dev/<device> bs=32k</strong>
178: </pre></ul>
179:
180: <p>
181: Make sure you use properly formatted perfect floppies with NO BAD BLOCKS or your install will most likely fail. For more information on creating a boot floppy and installing OpenBSD/i386 please refer to <a href="faq/faq4.html#4.1">FAQ4.1</a>.

238: configurations. Then, extract the Macside utilities from
239: CD2:3.0/mac68k/utils onto your hard disk. Run Mkfs to create your
240: filesystems on the A/UX partitions you just made. Then, use the
241: BSD/Mac68k Installer to copy all the sets in CD2:3.0/mac68k/ onto your
242: partitions. Finally, you will be ready to configure the BSD/Mac68k
243: Booter with the location of your kernel and boot the system.

251: The network boot requires a MVME68K BUG version that supports the <i>NIOT</i>
252: and <i>NBO</i> debugger commands. Follow the instructions in INSTALL.mvme68k
253: for more details.

264: <h3><font color=#e00000>OpenBSD/sparc:</font></h3>
265: <ul>
266: <p>
267: 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.
268:
269: <ul><pre>
270: > <strong>boot cdrom 3.0/sparc/bsd.rd</strong>
271: or
272: > <strong>b sd(0,6,0)3.0/sparc/bsd.rd</strong>
273: </pre></ul>
274:
275: <p>
276: 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">FAQ4.1</a>. To boot from the floppy use one of the two commands listed below, depending on the version of your ROM.
277:
278: <ul><pre>
279: > <strong>boot floppy</strong>
280: or
281: > <strong>boot fd()</strong>

284: <p>
285: Make sure you use a properly formatted floppy with NO BAD BLOCKS or your install will most likely fail.
286:
287: <p>
288: If your sparc doesn't have a floppy drive nor a CD drive, you can either
289: setup a bootable tape, or install via network, as told in the
290: INSTALL.sparc file.

314: <h3><font color=#e00000>Notes about the source code:</font></h3>
315: <ul>
316: <p>
317: src.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src. This file
318: contains everything you need except for the kernel sources, which are
319: in a separate archive. To extract:

323: # <strong>cd /usr/src</strong>
324: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</strong>

326: <p>
327: srcsys.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src/sys.
328: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.

330: <p>
331: <ul><pre>

334: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/srcsys.tar.gz</strong>
335: </pre></ul>
336: <p>
337: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
338: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
339: described at <a href=anoncvs.html>http://www.OpenBSD.org/anoncvs.html</a>.
340: Using these files
341: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
342: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

348: <h3><font color=#0000e0>Ports Tree</font></h3>
349: <p>
350: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:

352: <ul><pre>
353: # <strong>cd /usr</strong>
354: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</strong>
355: # <strong>cd ports</strong>
356: </pre></ul>
357: <p>
358: The <i>ports/</i> subdirectory is a checkout of the OpenBSD ports tree. Go
359: read <a href=ports.html>http://www.OpenBSD.org/ports.html</a>
360: if you know nothing about ports
361: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
362: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
363: OpenBSD ports system.
364: <p>
365: Certainly, the OpenBSD ports system is not complete. It is doubtful it
366: will ever be. However, it is growing very fast and getting more stable.
367: Almost all ports provided with this release should build without problems
368: on most architectures (over 1200 packages build on i386, for instance).
369: <p>
370: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for
371: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=cvs&apropos=0&sektion=1&manpath=OpenBSD+Current&arch=i386&format=html">
372: cvs(1)</a> if
373: you aren't familiar with CVS) checkout of our ports. As with our complete
374: source tree, our ports tree is available via anoncvs. So, in
375: order to keep current with it, you must make the <i>ports/</i> tree
376: available on a read-write medium and update the tree with a command
377: like:
378: <p>
379: <ul><pre>
1.3 miod 380: # <strong>cd [portsdir]/; cvs -d anoncvsserver.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_3_0</strong>
1.1 deraadt 381: </pre></ul>
382: <p>
383: [Of course, you must replace the local directory and server name here
384: with the location of your ports collection and a nearby anoncvs
385: server.]
386: <p>
387: Note that most ports are available as packages through ftp. Updated
388: packages for the 3.0 release will be made available if problems arise.
389: <p>
390: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
391: would like to know more, the mailing list ports@openbsd.org is a good
392: place to know.
