463: If you already have an OpenBSD 5.9 system, and do not want to reinstall,
464: upgrade instructions and advice can be found in the

472: <tt>src.tar.gz</tt> contains a source archive starting at <tt>/usr/src</tt>.
473: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
474: which are in a separate archive.
475: To extract:
476:
477: <blockquote><pre>
478: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src</b>
479: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
480: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</b>
481: </pre></blockquote>
482:
483: <tt>sys.tar.gz</tt> contains a source archive starting at <tt>/usr/src/sys</tt>.
484: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
485: To extract:
486:
487: <blockquote><pre>
488: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</b>
489: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
490: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</b>
491: </pre></blockquote>

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

503: <h3 id="ports"><font color="#0000e0">Ports Tree</font></h3>
504:
505: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
506:
507: <blockquote><pre>
508: # <b>cd /usr</b>
509: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</b>
510: </pre></blockquote>

512: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
513: if you know nothing about ports
514: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
515: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
516: OpenBSD ports system.
517: <p>
518: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
519: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
520: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
521: So, in order to keep up to date with the <i>-stable</i> branch, you must make
522: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
523: with a command like:
524:
525: <blockquote><pre>
526: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
527: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_1</b>
528: </pre></blockquote>
529:
530: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
531: server.]
532: <p>
533: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
534: ports for the 6.1 release will be made available if problems arise.
535: <p>
536: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
537: would like to know more, the mailing list
538: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
