297: <ul>
298: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386
299: release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
300: to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write
301: <i>CD1:3.6/i386/floppy36.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
302:
303: <p>
304: Use <i>CD1:3.6/i386/floppyB36.fs</i> instead for greater scsi controller
305: support, or <i>CD1:3.6/i386/floppyC36.fs</i> for better laptop support.
306:
307: <p>
308: If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
309: you can install across the network using PXE as described in
310: the included INSTALL.i386 document.
311:
312: <p>
313: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to
314: read INSTALL.i386.
315:
316: <p>
317: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located
318: at <i>CD1:3.6/tools/rawrite.exe</i>. To make the boot floppy under a Unix OS,
1.57 tb 319: use the <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/?query=
1.2 miod 320: dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a> utility. The following is an example usage of
1.57 tb 321: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)

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