547: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386
548: release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
549: to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write
550: <i>CD1:4.8/i386/floppy48.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
551:
552: <p>
553: Use <i>CD1:4.8/i386/floppyB48.fs</i> instead for greater SCSI controller
554: support, or <i>CD1:4.8/i386/floppyC48.fs</i> for better laptop support.

566: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located
567: at <i>CD1:4.8/tools/rawrite.exe</i>. To make the boot floppy under a Unix OS,
568: use the

857: source tree, our ports tree is available via anoncvs. So, in
858: order to keep current with it, you must make the <i>ports/</i> tree
859: available on a read-write medium and update the tree with a command

863: # <strong>cd [portsdir]/; cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_4_8</strong>

867: with the location of your ports collection and a nearby anoncvs
868: server.]
869: <p>
870: Note that most ports are available as packages through FTP. Updated
871: packages for the 4.8 release will be made available if problems arise.
872: <p>
873: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
874: would like to know more, the mailing list ports@openbsd.org is a good
875: place to know.
