127: <li>Support for MSG_NOSIGNAL
128: <li>KERN_PROC_CWD sysctl() for fetching the path to a process's working directory.
129: <li>Improved fnmatch(), glob(), and regcomp() implementations to resist DoS attacks.

137: <li>Small improvements to Linux compat (only available on i386).
138: </ul>
139: <p>
140: <li>Over 7,000 ports, major performance and stability improvements in
141: the package build process
1.8 espie 142: <ul>
143: <li>downloading of distfiles is simpler, can resume interrupted download,
144: discover file moves, and expire old files. Distfiles mirror sites now use
145: the new and improved method.
146: <li>dependency handling during ports build and package creation is at least
147: twice as fast, twenty times as fast in pathological cases. This also affects
148: user scripts such as out-of-date
149: <li>more checks are done during package builds, for increased user friendliness
150: <li>the long term process of documenting the infrastructure is now 100% done.
151: <li>The distributed ports builder (dpb) can now clean up old dependencies,
152: thus helping package builds be more reproducible.
153: This found tens of hidden build dependencies in the ports tree already.
154: <li>the semantics of pkg_add -a have been nailed down and a few minor bugs
155: have been fixed.
156: <li>arch-dependent issues are better classified, leading to better builds on
157: old architectures in some complicated cases. In particular, dpb explicitly
158: purges from memory info about packages it cannot build and stuff that
159: depends on it, leading to better life on sparc and vax which have very
160: small data-size limits.
161: <li>dpb recognizes full builds and trims some duplicate package builds

275: use of the "disklabel -E" command. If you are at all confused when
276: installing OpenBSD, read the relevant INSTALL.* file as listed above!

279: <h3><font color="#e00000">OpenBSD/i386:</font></h3>
280: <ul>
281: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386
282: release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
283: to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write
284: <i>CD1:5.1/i386/floppy51.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
285:
286: <p>
287: Use <i>CD1:5.1/i386/floppyB51.fs</i> instead for greater SCSI controller
288: support, or <i>CD1:5.1/i386/floppyC51.fs</i> for better laptop support.
289:
290: <p>
291: If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
292: you can install across the network using PXE as described in
293: the included INSTALL.i386 document.
294:
295: <p>
296: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to
297: read INSTALL.i386.
298:
299: <p>
300: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located
301: at <i>CD1:5.1/tools/rawrite.exe</i>. To make the boot floppy under a Unix OS,
302: use the
303: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>
304: utility. The following is an example usage of
305: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>,
306: where the device could be "floppy", "rfd0c", or

324: Boot from the CD to begin the install - you may need to adjust
325: your BIOS options first.
326: If you can't boot from the CD, you can create a boot floppy to install from.
327: To do this, write <i>CD2:5.1/amd64/floppy51.fs</i> to a floppy, then
328: boot from the floppy drive.
329:

595: <p>
596: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for

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

609: [Of course, you must replace the local directory and server name here
610: with the location of your ports collection and a nearby anoncvs
611: server.]
612: <p>
613: Note that most ports are available as packages through FTP. Updated
614: packages for the 5.1 release will be made available if problems arise.
615: <p>
616: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
617: would like to know more, the mailing list ports@openbsd.org is a good
618: place to know.
