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

329:
330: <p>
331: Make sure you use properly formatted perfect floppies with NO BAD BLOCKS or
332: your install will most likely fail. For more information on creating a boot
333: floppy and installing OpenBSD/i386 please refer to

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