144: Following this are the instructions which you would have on a piece of
145: paper if you had purchased a CDROM set instead of doing an alternate
146: form of install. The instructions for doing an ftp (or other style
147: of) install are very similar; the CDROM instructions are left intact
148: so that you can see how much easier it would have been if you had
149: purchased a CDROM instead.

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

181: <ul>
182: <p>
183: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386
184: release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
185: to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write
1.3 jufi 186: <i>CD1:3.2/i386/floppy32.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
1.1 miod 187:
188: <p>
1.3 jufi 189: Use <i>CD1:3.2/i386/floppyB32.fs</i> instead for greater scsi controller
190: support, or <i>CD1:3.2/i386/floppyC32.fs</i> for better laptop support.
1.1 miod 191:
192: <p>
193: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to read the included INSTALL.i386 document.
194:
195: <p>
196: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located
197: 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".
198:

262: CD4:3.2/mac68k/utils onto your hard disk. Run Mkfs to create your
263: filesystems on the A/UX partitions you just made. Then, use the
264: BSD/Mac68k Installer to copy all the sets in CD4:3.2/mac68k/ onto your

287: <h3><font color="#e00000">OpenBSD/sparc:</font></h3>
288: <ul>
289: <p>
290: 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.
291:
292: <ul><pre>
293: > <strong>boot cdrom 3.2/sparc/bsd.rd</strong>

296: </pre></ul>
297:
298: <p>
299: If your sparc does not have a CD drive, you can alternatively boot from floppy.
1.3 jufi 300: To do so you need to write "CD3:3.2/sparc/floppy32.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.
1.1 miod 301:
302: <ul><pre>
303: > <strong>boot floppy</strong>
304: or
305: > <strong>boot fd()</strong>

308: <p>
309: Make sure you use a properly formatted floppy with NO BAD BLOCKS or your install will most likely fail.
310:
311: <p>
312: If your sparc doesn't have a floppy drive nor a CD drive, you can either
313: setup a bootable tape, or install via network, as told in the
314: INSTALL.sparc file.

322:
323: <p>
324: If this doesn't work, or if you don't have a CDROM drive, you can write
1.3 jufi 325: <i>CD3:3.2/sparc64/floppy32.fs</i> to a floppy and boot it with <i>boot
1.1 miod 326: floppy</i>.<br>
327: Make sure you use a properly formatted floppy with NO BAD BLOCKS or your install will most likely fail.
328:
329: <p>
1.4 henning 330: You can also write <i>CD3:3.2/sparc64/miniroot32.fs</i> to the swap partition on
1.1 miod 331: the disk and boot with <i>boot disk:b</i>.
332:

338: <h3><font color="#e00000">Notes about the source code:</font></h3>
339: <ul>
340: <p>
341: src.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src. This file
342: contains everything you need except for the kernel sources, which are
343: in a separate archive. To extract:
344: <p>
345: <ul><pre>
346: # <strong>mkdir -p /usr/src</strong>
347: # <strong>cd /usr/src</strong>
348: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</strong>
349: </pre></ul>
350: <p>
351: srcsys.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src/sys.
352: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
353: To extract:
354: <p>
355: <ul><pre>
356: # <strong>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</strong>
357: # <strong>cd /usr/src</strong>
358: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/srcsys.tar.gz</strong>
359: </pre></ul>
360: <p>
361: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
362: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
1.5 miod 363: described at <a href="anoncvs.html">http://www.OpenBSD.org/anoncvs.html</a>.
1.1 miod 364: Using these files
365: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
366: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

370: <hr>
371: <p>
372: <h3><font color="#0000e0">Ports Tree</font></h3>
373: <p>
374: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
375: <p>
376: <ul><pre>
377: # <strong>cd /usr</strong>
378: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</strong>
379: # <strong>cd ports</strong>
380: </pre></ul>
381: <p>
382: The <i>ports/</i> subdirectory is a checkout of the OpenBSD ports tree. Go
383: read <a href="ports.html">http://www.OpenBSD.org/ports.html</a>
384: if you know nothing about ports
385: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
386: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
387: OpenBSD ports system.
388: <p>
389: Certainly, the OpenBSD ports system is not complete. It is doubtful it
390: will ever be. However, it is growing very fast and getting more stable.
391: Almost all ports provided with this release should build without problems
392: on most architectures (over 2000 packages build on i386, for instance).
393: <p>
394: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for
395: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=cvs&apropos=0&sektion=1&manpath=OpenBSD+Current&arch=i386&format=html">
396: cvs(1)</a> if
397: you aren't familiar with CVS) checkout of our ports. As with our complete
398: source tree, our ports tree is available via anoncvs. So, in
399: order to keep current with it, you must make the <i>ports/</i> tree
400: available on a read-write medium and update the tree with a command
401: like:
402: <p>
403: <ul><pre>
404: # <strong>cd [portsdir]/; cvs -d anoncvsserver.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_3.2</strong>
405: </pre></ul>
406: <p>
407: [Of course, you must replace the local directory and server name here
408: with the location of your ports collection and a nearby anoncvs
409: server.]
410: <p>
411: Note that most ports are available as packages through ftp. Updated
412: packages for the 3.2 release will be made available if problems arise.
413: <p>
414: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
415: would like to know more, the mailing list ports@openbsd.org is a good
416: place to know.
