1.2 deraadt 61: <li>Improved hardware support, including:
62: <ul>
63: <li>MSI interrupts for many devices, on those architectures which can

1.6 deraadt 65: <li>A new <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dma_alloc&sektion=9">dma_alloc(9)</a> API makes it easier for kernel code to allocate
1.2 deraadt 66: dma-safe memory. Many drivers (especially network drivers) and

68: to use this.
69: <li>As a result, big-memory support has been enabled on all possible
70: architectures.

421: <ul>
422: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386
423: release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
424: to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write
425: <i>CD1:5.0/i386/floppy50.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
426:
427: <p>
428: Use <i>CD1:5.0/i386/floppyB50.fs</i> instead for greater SCSI controller
429: support, or <i>CD1:5.0/i386/floppyC50.fs</i> for better laptop support.
430:
431: <p>
432: If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
433: you can install across the network using PXE as described in
434: the included INSTALL.i386 document.
435:
436: <p>
437: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to
438: read INSTALL.i386.
439:
440: <p>
441: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located
442: at <i>CD1:5.0/tools/rawrite.exe</i>. To make the boot floppy under a Unix OS,
443: use the
444: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>
445: utility. The following is an example usage of
446: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>,

711: <h3><font color="#0000e0">Ports Tree</font></h3>
712: <p>
713: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
714: <p>
715: <ul><pre>
716: # <strong>cd /usr</strong>
717: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</strong>
718: # <strong>cd ports</strong>
719: </pre></ul>
720: <p>
721: The <i>ports/</i> subdirectory is a checkout of the OpenBSD ports tree. Go
722: read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
723: if you know nothing about ports
724: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
725: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
726: OpenBSD ports system.
727: <p>
728: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for
729: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=cvs&apropos=0&sektion=1&manpath=OpenBSD+Current&arch=i386">
730: cvs(1)</a> if
731: you aren't familiar with CVS) checkout of our ports. As with our complete
732: source tree, our ports tree is available via anoncvs. So, in
733: order to keep current with it, you must make the <i>ports/</i> tree
734: available on a read-write medium and update the tree with a command
735: like:
736: <p>
737: <ul><pre>
1.4 nick 738: # <strong>cd [portsdir]/; cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_5_0</strong>
1.1 deraadt 739: </pre></ul>
740: <p>
741: [Of course, you must replace the local directory and server name here
742: with the location of your ports collection and a nearby anoncvs
743: server.]
744: <p>
745: Note that most ports are available as packages through FTP. Updated
746: packages for the 5.0 release will be made available if problems arise.
747: <p>
748: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
749: would like to know more, the mailing list ports@openbsd.org is a good
750: place to know.
