556: src.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src. This file
557: contains everything you need except for the kernel sources, which are
558: in a separate archive. To extract:
559:
560: <blockquote><pre>
561: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src</b>
562: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
563: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</b>
564: </pre></blockquote>
565:
566: sys.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src/sys.
567: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
568: To extract:
569:
570: <blockquote><pre>
571: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</b>
572: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
573: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</b>

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

595: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
596: if you know nothing about ports
597: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
598: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
599: OpenBSD ports system.
600: <p>
601: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for
602: <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/?query=cvs">
603: cvs(1)</a> if
604: you aren't familiar with CVS) checkout of our ports. As with our complete
605: source tree, our ports tree is available via
606: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
607: So, in order to keep up to date with the <i>-stable</i> branch, you must make
608: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
609: with a command like:
610:
611: <blockquote><pre>
612: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
613: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_0</b>
614: </pre></blockquote>
615:
616: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
617: server.]
618: <p>
619: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
620: ports for the 6.0 release will be made available if problems arise.
621: <p>
622: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
623: would like to know more, the mailing list
624: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
