203: form of install. The instructions for doing an ftp (or other style
204: of) install are very similar; the CDROM instructions are left intact

237: Quick installer information for people familiar with OpenBSD, and the
238: use of the "disklabel -E" command. If you are at all confused when
239: installing OpenBSD, read the relevant INSTALL.* file as listed above!
240: <p>
241:
242: <h3><font color="#e00000">OpenBSD/i386:</font></h3>
243: <ul>
244: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386
245: release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
246: to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write
247: <i>CD1:3.7/i386/floppy37.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
248:
249: <p>
250: Use <i>CD1:3.7/i386/floppyB37.fs</i> instead for greater scsi controller
251: support, or <i>CD1:3.7/i386/floppyC37.fs</i> for better laptop support.
252:
253: <p>
254: If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
255: you can install across the network using PXE as described in
256: the included INSTALL.i386 document.
257:
258: <p>
259: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to
260: read INSTALL.i386.
261:
262: <p>
263: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located
264: at <i>CD1:3.7/tools/rawrite.exe</i>. To make the boot floppy under a Unix OS,
265: use the <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=
266: dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a> utility. The following is an example usage of
267: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)
268: </a>, where the device could be "floppy", "rfd0c", or
269: "rfd0a".

272: # <strong>dd if=<file> of=/dev/<device> bs=32k</strong>
273: </pre></ul>
274:
275: <p>
276: Make sure you use properly formatted perfect floppies with NO BAD BLOCKS or
277: your install will most likely fail. For more information on creating a boot
278: floppy and installing OpenBSD/i386 please refer to
279: <a href="faq/faq4.html#MkFlop">FAQ4.1</a>.

290: <ul>
291: The 3.7 release of OpenBSD/amd64 is located on CD2.
292: Boot from the CD to begin the install - you may need to adjust
293: your BIOS options first.
294: If you can't boot from the CD, you can create a boot floppy to install from.
295: To do this, write <i>CD2:3.7/amd64/floppy37.fs</i> to a floppy, then
296: boot from the floppy drive.
297:
298: <p>
299: If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
300: you can install across the network using PXE as described in the included

322: The 3.7 release of OpenBSD/sparc is located on CD3. To boot off of this CD you
323: can use one of the two commands listed below, depending on the version of your
324: ROM.
325:
326: <ul><pre>
327: ok <strong>boot cdrom 3.7/sparc/bsd.rd</strong>

330: </pre></ul>
331:
332: <p>
333: If your SPARC system does not have a CD drive, you can alternatively boot from floppy.
334: To do so you need to write <i>CD3:3.7/sparc/floppy37.fs</i> to a floppy.
335: For more information see <a href="faq/faq4.html#MkFlop">FAQ4.1</a>. To boot from
336: the floppy use one of the two commands listed below, depending on the version of

535: source tree, our ports tree is available via anoncvs. So, in
536: order to keep current with it, you must make the <i>ports/</i> tree
537: available on a read-write medium and update the tree with a command

544: [Of course, you must replace the local directory and server name here
545: with the location of your ports collection and a nearby anoncvs
546: server.]
547: <p>
548: Note that most ports are available as packages through ftp. Updated
549: packages for the 3.7 release will be made available if problems arise.
550: <p>
551: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
552: would like to know more, the mailing list ports@openbsd.org is a good
553: place to know.
