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

159:
160: <h3><font color=#e00000>OpenBSD/i386:</font></h3>
161: <ul>
162: <p>
163: 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.
164:
165: <p>
1.4 miod 166: Use <i>CD1:3.0/i386/floppyB30.fs</i> instead for greater scsi controller
167: support, or <i>CD1:3.0/i386/floppyC30.fs</i> for better laptop support.
168:
169: <p>
1.1 deraadt 170: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to read the included INSTALL.i386 document.
171:
172: <p>
173: 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".
174:
175: <ul><pre>
176: # <strong>dd if=<file> of=/dev/<device> bs=32k</strong>
177: </pre></ul>
178:
179: <p>
180: 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>.

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

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

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

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

299: If this doesn't work, or if you don't have a CDROM drive, you can write
300: <i>CD3:3.0/sparc64/floppy30.fs</i> to a floppy and boot it with <i>boot

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

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

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

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