295: <ul>
296: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386
297: release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
298: to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write
299: <i>CD1:3.6/i386/floppy36.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
300:
301: <p>
302: Use <i>CD1:3.6/i386/floppyB36.fs</i> instead for greater scsi controller
303: support, or <i>CD1:3.6/i386/floppyC36.fs</i> for better laptop support.
304:
305: <p>
306: If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
307: you can install across the network using PXE as described in
308: the included INSTALL.i386 document.
309:
310: <p>
311: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to
312: read INSTALL.i386.
313:
314: <p>
315: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located
316: at <i>CD1:3.6/tools/rawrite.exe</i>. To make the boot floppy under a Unix OS,
1.57 ! tb 317: use the <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/?query=
1.2 miod 318: dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a> utility. The following is an example usage of
1.57 ! tb 319: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)

345: your BIOS options first.
346: If you can't boot from the CD, you can create a boot floppy to install from.
347: To do this, write <i>CD2:3.6/amd64/floppy36.fs</i> to a floppy, then
348: boot from the floppy drive.
