512:
513: <tt>src.tar.gz</tt> contains a source archive starting at <tt>/usr/src</tt>.
514: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
515: which are in a separate archive.
516: To extract:
517:
518: <blockquote><pre>
519: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src</b>
520: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
521: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</b>
522: </pre></blockquote>
523:
524: <tt>sys.tar.gz</tt> contains a source archive starting at <tt>/usr/src/sys</tt>.
525: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
526: To extract:
527:
528: <blockquote><pre>
529: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</b>
530: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
531: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</b>
532: </pre></blockquote>

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

548: <blockquote><pre>
549: # <b>cd /usr</b>

552:
553: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
554: if you know nothing about ports
555: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
556: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
557: OpenBSD ports system.
558: <p>
559: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
560: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
561: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
562: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
563: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
564: with a command like:
565:
566: <blockquote><pre>
567: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
568: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_3</b>
569: </pre></blockquote>
570:
571: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
572: server.]
573: <p>
574: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
575: ports for the 6.3 release will be made available if problems arise.
576: <p>
577: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
578: would like to know more, the mailing list
579: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
