481: <tt>src.tar.gz</tt> contains a source archive starting at <tt>/usr/src</tt>.
482: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
483: which are in a separate archive.
484: To extract:
485:
486: <blockquote><pre>
487: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src</b>
488: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
489: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</b>
490: </pre></blockquote>
491:
492: <tt>sys.tar.gz</tt> contains a source archive starting at <tt>/usr/src/sys</tt>.
493: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
494: To extract:
495:
496: <blockquote><pre>
497: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</b>
498: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
499: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</b>
500: </pre></blockquote>

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

513:
514: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
515:
516: <blockquote><pre>
517: # <b>cd /usr</b>
518: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</b>
519: </pre></blockquote>
520:
521: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
522: if you know nothing about ports
523: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
524: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
525: OpenBSD ports system.
526: <p>
527: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
528: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
529: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
530: So, in order to keep up to date with the <i>-stable</i> branch, you must make
531: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
532: with a command like:
533:
534: <blockquote><pre>
535: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
536: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_1</b>
537: </pre></blockquote>
538:
539: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
540: server.]
541: <p>
542: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
543: ports for the 6.2 release will be made available if problems arise.
544: <p>
545: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
546: would like to know more, the mailing list
547: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
