330: use of the "disklabel -E" command. If you are at all confused when
331: installing OpenBSD, read the relevant INSTALL.* file as listed above!

333:
334: <h3><font color="#e00000">OpenBSD/i386:</font></h3>
335: <ul>
336: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386
337: release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
338: to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write
339: <i>CD1:3.8/i386/floppy38.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
340:
341: <p>
342: Use <i>CD1:3.8/i386/floppyB38.fs</i> instead for greater SCSI controller
343: support, or <i>CD1:3.8/i386/floppyC38.fs</i> for better laptop support.
344:
345: <p>
346: If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
347: you can install across the network using PXE as described in
348: the included INSTALL.i386 document.
349:
350: <p>
351: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to
352: read INSTALL.i386.
353:
354: <p>
355: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located
356: at <i>CD1:3.8/tools/rawrite.exe</i>. To make the boot floppy under a Unix OS,
357: use the <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=
358: dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a> utility. The following is an example usage of
359: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>,

368: Make sure you use properly formatted perfect floppies with NO BAD BLOCKS or
369: your install will most likely fail. For more information on creating a boot
370: floppy and installing OpenBSD/i386 please refer to

384: Boot from the CD to begin the install - you may need to adjust
385: your BIOS options first.
386: If you can't boot from the CD, you can create a boot floppy to install from.
387: To do this, write <i>CD2:3.8/amd64/floppy38.fs</i> to a floppy, then
388: boot from the floppy drive.
389:

425: If your SPARC system does not have a CD drive, you can alternatively boot from floppy.
426: To do so you need to write <i>CD3:3.8/sparc/floppy38.fs</i> to a floppy.
427: For more information see <a href="faq/faq4.html#MkFlop">FAQ 4.3.1</a>.

645: <p>
646: Note that most ports are available as packages through FTP. Updated
