450: installing OpenBSD, read the relevant INSTALL.* file as listed above!
451: <p>

453: <h3><font color="#e00000">OpenBSD/i386:</font></h3>
454: <ul>
455: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386
456: release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
457: to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write
458: <i>CD1:4.0/i386/floppy40.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
459:
460: <p>
461: Use <i>CD1:4.0/i386/floppyB40.fs</i> instead for greater SCSI controller
462: support, or <i>CD1:4.0/i386/floppyC40.fs</i> for better laptop support.
463:
464: <p>
465: If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
466: you can install across the network using PXE as described in
467: the included INSTALL.i386 document.
468:
469: <p>
470: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to
471: read INSTALL.i386.
472:
473: <p>
474: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located
475: at <i>CD1:4.0/tools/rawrite.exe</i>. To make the boot floppy under a Unix OS,
476: use the
477: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>
478: utility. The following is an example usage of
479: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>,
480: where the device could be "floppy", "rfd0c", or

488: Make sure you use properly formatted perfect floppies with NO BAD BLOCKS or

497: The 4.0 release of OpenBSD/amd64 is located on CD2.
498: Boot from the CD to begin the install - you may need to adjust
499: your BIOS options first.
500: If you can't boot from the CD, you can create a boot floppy to install from.
501: To do this, write <i>CD2:4.0/amd64/floppy40.fs</i> to a floppy, then
502: boot from the floppy drive.
503:

709: # <strong>mkdir -p /usr/src</strong>

711: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</strong>
712: </pre></ul>

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

717: <p>
718: <ul><pre>
719: # <strong>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</strong>

721: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</strong>
722: </pre></ul>
723: <p>
724: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
725: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
726: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
727: Using these files
728: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
729: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

747: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:

755: The <i>ports/</i> subdirectory is a checkout of the OpenBSD ports tree. Go
756: read the <a href="ports.html">ports</a> page
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
763: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=cvs&apropos=0&sektion=1&manpath=OpenBSD+Current&arch=i386&format=html">
764: cvs(1)</a> if
765: you aren't familiar with CVS) checkout of our ports. As with our complete
766: source tree, our ports tree is available via anoncvs. So, in
767: order to keep current with it, you must make the <i>ports/</i> tree
768: available on a read-write medium and update the tree with a command
769: like:
770: <p>
771: <ul><pre>
772: # <strong>cd [portsdir]/; cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_4_0</strong>
773: </pre></ul>
774: <p>
775: [Of course, you must replace the local directory and server name here
776: with the location of your ports collection and a nearby anoncvs
777: server.]
778: <p>
779: Note that most ports are available as packages through FTP. Updated
780: packages for the 4.0 release will be made available if problems arise.
781: <p>
782: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
783: would like to know more, the mailing list ports@openbsd.org is a good
784: place to know.
