! 133: <p>
! 134: Following this are the instructions which you would have on a piece of
! 135: paper if you had purchased a CDROM set instead of doing an alternate
! 136: form of install. The instructions for doing an ftp (or other style
! 137: of) install are very similar; the CDROM instructions are left intact
! 138: so that you can see how much easier it would have been if you had
! 139: purchased a CDROM instead.
! 140: <p>
! 141:
! 142: <hr>
! 143: Please refer to the following files on the three CDROMs for extensive
! 144: details on how to install OpenBSD 3.2 on your machine:

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

! 170: <h3><font color="#e00000">OpenBSD/i386:</font></h3>
! 171: <ul>
! 172: <p>
! 173: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386
! 174: release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
! 175: to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write
! 176: <i>CD1:3.2/i386/floppy31.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
! 177:
! 178: <p>
! 179: Use <i>CD1:3.2/i386/floppyB31.fs</i> instead for greater scsi controller
! 180: support, or <i>CD1:3.2/i386/floppyC31.fs</i> for better laptop support.
! 181:
! 182: <p>
! 183: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to read the included INSTALL.i386 document.
! 184:
! 185: <p>
! 186: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located
! 187: at <i>CD:/3.2/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".

! 191: </pre></ul>
! 192:
! 193: <p>
! 194: 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>.

! 249: <p>
! 250: Boot MacOS as normal and partition your disk with the appropriate A/UX
! 251: configurations. Then, extract the Macside utilities from
! 252: CD4:3.2/mac68k/utils onto your hard disk. Run Mkfs to create your
! 253: filesystems on the A/UX partitions you just made. Then, use the
! 254: BSD/Mac68k Installer to copy all the sets in CD4:3.2/mac68k/ onto your
! 255: partitions. Finally, you will be ready to configure the BSD/Mac68k
! 256: Booter with the location of your kernel and boot the system.

! 262: <p>
! 263: You can create a bootable installation tape or boot over the network.<br>
! 264: The network boot requires a MVME68K BUG version that supports the <i>NIOT</i>
! 265: and <i>NBO</i> debugger commands. Follow the instructions in INSTALL.mvme68k
! 266: for more details.
! 267: </ul>

! 277: <h3><font color="#e00000">OpenBSD/sparc:</font></h3>
! 278: <ul>
! 279: <p>
! 280: The 3.2 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.
! 281:
! 282: <ul><pre>
! 283: > <strong>boot cdrom 3.2/sparc/bsd.rd</strong>
! 284: or
! 285: > <strong>b sd(0,6,0)3.2/sparc/bsd.rd</strong>
! 286: </pre></ul>
! 287:
! 288: <p>
! 289: If your sparc does not have a CD drive, you can alternatively boot from floppy.
! 290: To do so you need to write "CD3:3.2/sparc/floppy31.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.
! 291:
! 292: <ul><pre>
! 293: > <strong>boot floppy</strong>
! 294: or
! 295: > <strong>boot fd()</strong>
! 296: </pre></ul>
! 297:
! 298: <p>
! 299: Make sure you use a properly formatted floppy with NO BAD BLOCKS or your install will most likely fail.
! 300:
! 301: <p>
! 302: If your sparc doesn't have a floppy drive nor a CD drive, you can either
! 303: setup a bootable tape, or install via network, as told in the
! 304: INSTALL.sparc file.
! 305: </ul>

! 308: <h3><font color="#e00000">OpenBSD/sparc64:</font></h3>
! 309: <ul>
! 310: <p>
! 311: Put the CD3 in your CDROM drive and type <i>boot cdrom</i>.
! 312:
! 313: <p>
! 314: If this doesn't work, or if you don't have a CDROM drive, you can write
! 315: <i>CD3:3.2/sparc64/floppy31.fs</i> to a floppy and boot it with <i>boot
! 316: floppy</i>.<br>
! 317: Make sure you use a properly formatted floppy with NO BAD BLOCKS or your install will most likely fail.
! 318:
! 319: <p>
! 320: You can also write <i>CD3:3.2/sparc64/miniroot31.fs</i> to the swap partition on
! 321: the disk and boot with <i>boot disk:b</i>.
! 322:
! 323: <p>
! 324: If nothing works, you can boot over the network as described in INSTALL.sparc64

! 328: <h3><font color="#e00000">Notes about the source code:</font></h3>
! 329: <ul>
! 330: <p>
! 331: src.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src. This file
! 332: contains everything you need except for the kernel sources, which are
! 333: in a separate archive. To extract:
! 334: <p>
! 335: <ul><pre>
! 336: # <strong>mkdir -p /usr/src</strong>
! 337: # <strong>cd /usr/src</strong>
! 338: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</strong>
! 339: </pre></ul>
! 340: <p>
! 341: srcsys.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src/sys.
! 342: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
! 343: To extract:
! 344: <p>
! 345: <ul><pre>
! 346: # <strong>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</strong>
! 347: # <strong>cd /usr/src</strong>
! 348: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/srcsys.tar.gz</strong>
! 349: </pre></ul>
! 350: <p>
! 351: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
! 352: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
! 353: described at <a href=anoncvs.html>http://www.OpenBSD.org/anoncvs.html</a>.
! 354: Using these files
! 355: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
! 356: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.
! 357: <p>
! 358: </ul>
! 359: <a name="ports"></a>
! 360: <hr>
! 361: <p>
! 362: <h3><font color="#0000e0">Ports Tree</font></h3>
! 363: <p>
! 364: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
! 365: <p>
! 366: <ul><pre>
! 367: # <strong>cd /usr</strong>
! 368: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</strong>
! 369: # <strong>cd ports</strong>
! 370: </pre></ul>
! 371: <p>
! 372: The <i>ports/</i> subdirectory is a checkout of the OpenBSD ports tree. Go
! 373: read <a href="ports.html">http://www.OpenBSD.org/ports.html</a>
! 374: if you know nothing about ports
! 375: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
! 376: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
! 377: OpenBSD ports system.
! 378: <p>
! 379: Certainly, the OpenBSD ports system is not complete. It is doubtful it
! 380: will ever be. However, it is growing very fast and getting more stable.
! 381: Almost all ports provided with this release should build without problems
! 382: on most architectures (over 2000 packages build on i386, for instance).
! 383: <p>
! 384: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for
! 385: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=cvs&apropos=0&sektion=1&manpath=OpenBSD+Current&arch=i386&format=html">
! 386: cvs(1)</a> if
! 387: you aren't familiar with CVS) checkout of our ports. As with our complete
! 388: source tree, our ports tree is available via anoncvs. So, in
! 389: order to keep current with it, you must make the <i>ports/</i> tree
! 390: available on a read-write medium and update the tree with a command
! 391: like:
! 392: <p>
! 393: <ul><pre>
! 394: # <strong>cd [portsdir]/; cvs -d anoncvsserver.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_3.2</strong>
! 395: </pre></ul>
! 396: <p>
! 397: [Of course, you must replace the local directory and server name here
! 398: with the location of your ports collection and a nearby anoncvs
! 399: server.]
! 400: <p>
! 401: Note that most ports are available as packages through ftp. Updated
! 402: packages for the 3.2 release will be made available if problems arise.
! 403: <p>
! 404: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
! 405: would like to know more, the mailing list ports@openbsd.org is a good
! 406: place to know.
