562: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386
563: release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
564: to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write
565: <i>CD1:4.7/i386/floppy47.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
566:
567: <p>
568: Use <i>CD1:4.7/i386/floppyB47.fs</i> instead for greater SCSI controller
569: support, or <i>CD1:4.7/i386/floppyC47.fs</i> for better laptop support.
570:
571: <p>
572: If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
573: you can install across the network using PXE as described in
574: the included INSTALL.i386 document.
575:
576: <p>
577: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to
578: read INSTALL.i386.
579:
580: <p>
581: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located
582: at <i>CD1:4.7/tools/rawrite.exe</i>. To make the boot floppy under a Unix OS,
583: use the
584: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>
585: utility. The following is an example usage of
586: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>,
587: where the device could be "floppy", "rfd0c", or
