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

154: Quick installer information for people familiar with OpenBSD, and the
155: use of the "disklabel -E" command. If you are at all confused when
156: installing OpenBSD, read the relevant INSTALL.* file as listed above!
157: <p>
158:
159: <h3><font color=#e00000>OpenBSD/i386:</font></h3>
160: <ul>
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>
172: 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".
173:
174: <ul><pre>
175: # <strong>dd if=<file> of=/dev/<device> bs=32k</strong>
176: </pre></ul>
177:
178: <p>
179: 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>.

236: configurations. Then, extract the Macside utilities from
237: CD2:3.0/mac68k/utils onto your hard disk. Run Mkfs to create your
238: filesystems on the A/UX partitions you just made. Then, use the
239: BSD/Mac68k Installer to copy all the sets in CD2:3.0/mac68k/ onto your

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

262: <h3><font color=#e00000>OpenBSD/sparc:</font></h3>
263: <ul>
264: <p>
265: 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.
266:
267: <ul><pre>
268: > <strong>boot cdrom 3.0/sparc/bsd.rd</strong>
269: or
270: > <strong>b sd(0,6,0)3.0/sparc/bsd.rd</strong>
271: </pre></ul>
272:
273: <p>
274: 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.
275:
276: <ul><pre>
277: > <strong>boot floppy</strong>
278: or
279: > <strong>boot fd()</strong>

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

312: <h3><font color=#e00000>Notes about the source code:</font></h3>
313: <ul>
314: <p>
315: src.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src. This file
316: contains everything you need except for the kernel sources, which are
317: in a separate archive. To extract:
318: <p>
319: <ul><pre>
320: # <strong>mkdir -p /usr/src</strong>
321: # <strong>cd /usr/src</strong>
322: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</strong>
323: </pre></ul>
324: <p>
325: srcsys.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src/sys.
326: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
327: To extract:
328: <p>
329: <ul><pre>
330: # <strong>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</strong>

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

345: <p>
346: <h3><font color=#0000e0>Ports Tree</font></h3>
347: <p>
348: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
349: <p>
350: <ul><pre>
351: # <strong>cd /usr</strong>
352: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</strong>
353: # <strong>cd ports</strong>
354: </pre></ul>
355: <p>
356: The <i>ports/</i> subdirectory is a checkout of the OpenBSD ports tree. Go
357: read <a href=ports.html>http://www.OpenBSD.org/ports.html</a>
358: if you know nothing about ports
359: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
360: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
361: OpenBSD ports system.
362: <p>
363: Certainly, the OpenBSD ports system is not complete. It is doubtful it
364: will ever be. However, it is growing very fast and getting more stable.
365: Almost all ports provided with this release should build without problems
366: on most architectures (over 1200 packages build on i386, for instance).
367: <p>
368: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for
369: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=cvs&apropos=0&sektion=1&manpath=OpenBSD+Current&arch=i386&format=html">
370: cvs(1)</a> if
371: you aren't familiar with CVS) checkout of our ports. As with our complete
372: source tree, our ports tree is available via anoncvs. So, in
373: order to keep current with it, you must make the <i>ports/</i> tree
374: available on a read-write medium and update the tree with a command
375: like:
376: <p>
377: <ul><pre>
1.3 miod 378: # <strong>cd [portsdir]/; cvs -d anoncvsserver.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_3_0</strong>
1.1 deraadt 379: </pre></ul>
380: <p>
381: [Of course, you must replace the local directory and server name here
382: with the location of your ports collection and a nearby anoncvs
383: server.]
384: <p>
385: Note that most ports are available as packages through ftp. Updated
386: packages for the 3.0 release will be made available if problems arise.
387: <p>
388: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
389: would like to know more, the mailing list ports@openbsd.org is a good
390: place to know.
