521: <ul>
522: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386
523: release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
524: to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write
525: <i>CD1:4.7/i386/floppy47.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
526:
527: <p>
528: Use <i>CD1:4.7/i386/floppyB47.fs</i> instead for greater SCSI controller
529: support, or <i>CD1:4.7/i386/floppyC47.fs</i> for better laptop support.
530:
531: <p>
532: If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
533: you can install across the network using PXE as described in
534: the included INSTALL.i386 document.
535:
536: <p>
537: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to
538: read INSTALL.i386.
539:
540: <p>
541: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located
542: at <i>CD1:4.7/tools/rawrite.exe</i>. To make the boot floppy under a Unix OS,
543: use the
544: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>
545: utility. The following is an example usage of
546: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>,
547: where the device could be "floppy", "rfd0c", or

568: To do this, write <i>CD2:4.7/amd64/floppy47.fs</i> to a floppy, then
569: boot from the floppy drive.

772: in a separate archive. To extract:
773: <p>
774: <ul><pre>
775: # <strong>mkdir -p /usr/src</strong>
776: # <strong>cd /usr/src</strong>
777: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</strong>
778: </pre></ul>
779: <p>
780: sys.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src/sys.
781: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
782: To extract:
783: <p>
784: <ul><pre>
785: # <strong>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</strong>
786: # <strong>cd /usr/src</strong>
787: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</strong>

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

821: The <i>ports/</i> subdirectory is a checkout of the OpenBSD ports tree. Go
822: read the <a href="ports.html">ports</a> page
823: if you know nothing about ports
824: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
825: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
826: OpenBSD ports system.
827: <p>
828: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for
829: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=cvs&apropos=0&sektion=1&manpath=OpenBSD+Current&arch=i386">
830: cvs(1)</a> if
831: you aren't familiar with CVS) checkout of our ports. As with our complete
832: source tree, our ports tree is available via anoncvs. So, in
833: order to keep current with it, you must make the <i>ports/</i> tree
834: available on a read-write medium and update the tree with a command
835: like:
836: <p>
837: <ul><pre>
1.26 deraadt 838: # <strong>cd [portsdir]/; cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_4_7</strong>
1.1 deraadt 839: </pre></ul>
840: <p>
841: [Of course, you must replace the local directory and server name here
842: with the location of your ports collection and a nearby anoncvs
843: server.]
844: <p>
845: Note that most ports are available as packages through FTP. Updated
846: packages for the 4.7 release will be made available if problems arise.
847: <p>
848: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
849: would like to know more, the mailing list ports@openbsd.org is a good
850: place to know.
