293: Quick installer information for people familiar with OpenBSD, and the
294: use of the "disklabel -E" command. If you are at all confused when
295: installing OpenBSD, read the relevant INSTALL.* file as listed above!
296: <p>
297:
298: <h3><font color="#e00000">OpenBSD/i386:</font></h3>
299: <ul>
300: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386
301: release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
302: to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write
303: <i>CD1:3.6/i386/floppy36.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
304:
305: <p>
306: Use <i>CD1:3.6/i386/floppyB36.fs</i> instead for greater scsi controller
307: support, or <i>CD1:3.6/i386/floppyC36.fs</i> for better laptop support.
308:
309: <p>
310: If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
311: you can install across the network using PXE as described in
312: the included INSTALL.i386 document.
313:
314: <p>
315: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to
316: read INSTALL.i386.
317:
318: <p>
319: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located
320: at <i>CD1:3.6/tools/rawrite.exe</i>. To make the boot floppy under a Unix OS,
321: use the <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=
322: dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a> utility. The following is an example usage of
323: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)
324: </a>, where the device could be "floppy", "rfd0c", or

330:
331: <p>
332: Make sure you use properly formatted perfect floppies with NO BAD BLOCKS or
333: your install will most likely fail. For more information on creating a boot
334: floppy and installing OpenBSD/i386 please refer to

347: The 3.6 release of OpenBSD/amd64 is located on CD2.
348: Boot from the CD to begin the install - you may need to adjust
349: your BIOS options first.
350: If you can't boot from the CD, you can create a boot floppy to install from.
351: To do this, write <i>CD2:3.6/amd64/floppy36.fs</i> to a floppy, then
352: boot from the floppy drive.
353:
354: <p>
355: If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
