Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386 release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write *************** *** 380,411 ****
To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located at CD1:3.7/tools/rawrite.exe. To make the boot floppy under a Unix OS, ! use the dd(1) utility. The following is an example usage of ! dd(1), where the device could be "floppy", "rfd0c", or "rfd0a". !
! # dd if=<file> of=/dev/<device> bs=32k !
Make sure you use properly formatted perfect floppies with NO BAD BLOCKS or your install will most likely fail. For more information on creating a boot floppy and installing OpenBSD/i386 please refer to this page. -

Copy bsd.rd to a Mach or UniOS partition, and boot it from the PROM. Alternatively, you can create a bootable tape and boot from it. Refer to the instructions in INSTALL.luna88k for more details. -
-
Boot MacOS as normal and extract the Macside "BSD/Mac68k Booter" utility from FTP:3.7/mac68k/utils onto your hard disk. Configure the "BSD/Mac68k Booter" with the location of your bsd.rd kernel and boot into the installer. Refer to the instructions in INSTALL.mac68k for more details. -

You can create a bootable installation tape or boot over the network.
The network boot requires a MVME68K BUG version that supports the NIOT
and NBO debugger commands. Follow the instructions in INSTALL.mvme68k
for more details.

sys.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src/sys. This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels. To extract:

Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as described here. Using these files results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree. -

If you already have an OpenBSD 3.6 system, and do not want to reinstall, upgrade instructions and advice can be found in the Upgrade Guide. -
