472: Quick installer information for people familiar with OpenBSD, and the
473: use of the "disklabel -E" command. If you are at all confused when
474: installing OpenBSD, read the relevant INSTALL.* file as listed above!

476: <h3>OpenBSD/i386:</h3>
477:
1.1 david 478: <p>
479: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386
480: release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
481: to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write
482: <i>CD1:4.0/i386/floppy40.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
483:
484: <p>
485: Use <i>CD1:4.0/i386/floppyB40.fs</i> instead for greater SCSI controller
486: support, or <i>CD1:4.0/i386/floppyC40.fs</i> for better laptop support.
487:
488: <p>
489: If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
490: you can install across the network using PXE as described in
491: the included INSTALL.i386 document.
492:
493: <p>
494: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to
495: read INSTALL.i386.
496:
497: <p>
498: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located
499: at <i>CD1:4.0/tools/rawrite.exe</i>. To make the boot floppy under a Unix OS,
500: use the
1.109 bentley 501: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dd.1">dd(1)</a>
1.1 david 502: utility. The following is an example usage of
1.109 bentley 503: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dd.1">dd(1)</a>,
1.1 david 504: where the device could be "floppy", "rfd0c", or
505: "rfd0a".

1.1 david 510:
511: <p>
512: Make sure you use properly formatted perfect floppies with NO BAD BLOCKS or
513: your install will most likely fail. For more information on creating a boot
514: floppy and installing OpenBSD/i386 please refer to
1.104 tj 515: <a href="faq/faq4.html#MkFlop">this page</a>.

517: <h3>OpenBSD/amd64:</h3>
1.1 david 518:
519: <p>
520: The 4.0 release of OpenBSD/amd64 is located on CD2.
521: Boot from the CD to begin the install - you may need to adjust
522: your BIOS options first.
523: If you can't boot from the CD, you can create a boot floppy to install from.
524: To do this, write <i>CD2:4.0/amd64/floppy40.fs</i> to a floppy, then
525: boot from the floppy drive.
526:
527: <p>
528: If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
529: you can install across the network using PXE as described in the included
530: INSTALL.amd64 document.
531:
532: <p>
533: If you are planning to dual boot OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to
534: read INSTALL.amd64.

540: <i>C</i> key until the display turns on and shows <i>OpenBSD/macppc boot</i>.
541:
542: <p>
543: Alternatively, at the Open Firmware prompt, enter <i>boot cd:,ofwboot

546: <h3>OpenBSD/sparc:</h3>
1.1 david 547:
548: <p>
549: The 4.0 release of OpenBSD/sparc is located on CD3. To boot off of this CD you
550: can use one of the two commands listed below, depending on the version of your
551: ROM.
552:
1.109 bentley 553: <blockquote><pre>
554: ok <kbd>boot cdrom 4.0/sparc/bsd.rd</kbd>

557: </pre></blockquote>
1.1 david 558:
559: <p>
560: If your SPARC system does not have a CD drive, you can alternatively boot from floppy.
561: To do so you need to write <i>CD3:4.0/sparc/floppy40.fs</i> to a floppy.
1.104 tj 562: For more information see <a href="faq/faq4.html#MkFlop">this page</a>.
1.1 david 563: To boot from the floppy use one of the two commands listed below,
564: depending on the version of your ROM.
565:
1.109 bentley 566: <blockquote><pre>
567: ok <kbd>boot floppy</kbd>

587: If this doesn't work, or if you don't have a CDROM drive, you can write
588: <i>CD3:4.0/sparc64/floppy40.fs</i> or <i>CD3:4.0/sparc64/floppyB40.fs</i>
589: (depending on your machine) to a floppy and boot it with <i>boot

725: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
726: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
727: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
728: Using these files
729: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
730: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

755: The <i>ports/</i> subdirectory is a checkout of the OpenBSD ports tree. Go
1.90 jasper 756: read the <a href="faq/faq15.html">ports</a> page
1.1 david 757: if you know nothing about ports
758: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
759: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
760: OpenBSD ports system.
761: <p>
762: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for
1.113 bentley 763: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/cvs.1"> cvs(1)</a> if
1.1 david 764: you aren't familiar with CVS) checkout of our ports. As with our complete
765: source tree, our ports tree is available via anoncvs. So, in
766: order to keep current with it, you must make the <i>ports/</i> tree
767: available on a read-write medium and update the tree with a command
768: like:
1.109 bentley 769: <blockquote><pre>
1.112 deraadt 770: # <kbd>cd [portsdir]/; cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_4_0</kbd>
1.109 bentley 771: </pre></blockquote>
1.1 david 772: <p>
773: [Of course, you must replace the local directory and server name here
774: with the location of your ports collection and a nearby anoncvs
775: server.]
776: <p>
1.112 deraadt 777: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
1.1 david 778: packages for the 4.0 release will be made available if problems arise.
779: <p>
780: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
1.112 deraadt 781: would like to know more, the mailing list
782: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
