449: <ul>
450: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386
451: release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
452: to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write
453: <i>CD1:4.0/i386/floppy40.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
454:
455: <p>
456: Use <i>CD1:4.0/i386/floppyB40.fs</i> instead for greater SCSI controller
457: support, or <i>CD1:4.0/i386/floppyC40.fs</i> for better laptop support.
458:
459: <p>
460: If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
461: you can install across the network using PXE as described in
462: the included INSTALL.i386 document.
463:
464: <p>
465: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to
466: read INSTALL.i386.
467:
468: <p>
469: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located
470: at <i>CD1:4.0/tools/rawrite.exe</i>. To make the boot floppy under a Unix OS,
471: use the
472: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>
473: utility. The following is an example usage of
474: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>,
475: where the device could be "floppy", "rfd0c", or

494: your BIOS options first.
495: If you can't boot from the CD, you can create a boot floppy to install from.
496: To do this, write <i>CD2:4.0/amd64/floppy40.fs</i> to a floppy, then
497: boot from the floppy drive.
498:

709: sys.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src/sys.
710: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
711: To extract:
712: <p>
713: <ul><pre>
714: # <strong>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</strong>
715: # <strong>cd /usr/src</strong>
716: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</strong>
717: </pre></ul>
718: <p>
719: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
720: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
721: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
722: Using these files
723: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
724: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

751: The <i>ports/</i> subdirectory is a checkout of the OpenBSD ports tree. Go
752: read the <a href="ports.html">ports</a> page
753: if you know nothing about ports
754: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
755: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
756: OpenBSD ports system.
757: <p>
758: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for
759: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=cvs&apropos=0&sektion=1&manpath=OpenBSD+Current&arch=i386&format=html">
760: cvs(1)</a> if
761: you aren't familiar with CVS) checkout of our ports. As with our complete
762: source tree, our ports tree is available via anoncvs. So, in
763: order to keep current with it, you must make the <i>ports/</i> tree
764: available on a read-write medium and update the tree with a command
765: like:
766: <p>
767: <ul><pre>
768: # <strong>cd [portsdir]/; cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_4_0</strong>
769: </pre></ul>
770: <p>
771: [Of course, you must replace the local directory and server name here
772: with the location of your ports collection and a nearby anoncvs
773: server.]
774: <p>
775: Note that most ports are available as packages through FTP. Updated
776: packages for the 4.0 release will be made available if problems arise.
777: <p>
778: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
779: would like to know more, the mailing list ports@openbsd.org is a good
780: place to know.
