535: To extract:
536:
537: <blockquote><pre>
538: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src</b>
539: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
540: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</b>

542:
543: <tt>sys.tar.gz</tt> contains a source archive starting at <tt>/usr/src/sys</tt>.

555: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.

573: if you know nothing about ports
574: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
575: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
576: OpenBSD ports system.
577: <p>
578: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
579: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
580: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
581: So, in order to keep up to date with the <i>-stable</i> branch, you must make
582: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
583: with a command like:
584:
585: <blockquote><pre>
586: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
587: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_1</b>
588: </pre></blockquote>
589:
590: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
591: server.]
592: <p>
593: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
594: ports for the 6.1 release will be made available if problems arise.
595: <p>
596: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
597: would like to know more, the mailing list
598: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
