514: <h3 id="sourcecode"><font color="#0000e0">Notes about the source code</font></h3>
515:
516: <tt>src.tar.gz</tt> contains a source archive starting at <tt>/usr/src</tt>.
517: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
518: which are in a separate archive.
519: To extract:
520:
521: <blockquote><pre>
522: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src</b>
523: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
524: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</b>
525: </pre></blockquote>
526:
527: <tt>sys.tar.gz</tt> contains a source archive starting at <tt>/usr/src/sys</tt>.
528: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
529: To extract:
530:
531: <blockquote><pre>
532: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</b>
533: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
534: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</b>
535: </pre></blockquote>
536:
537: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
538: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
539: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
540: Using these files
541: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
542: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

547: <h3 id="ports"><font color="#0000e0">Ports Tree</font></h3>
548:
549: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
550:
551: <blockquote><pre>
552: # <b>cd /usr</b>
553: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</b>
554: </pre></blockquote>
555:
556: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
557: if you know nothing about ports
558: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
559: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
560: OpenBSD ports system.
561: <p>
562: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
563: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
564: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
565: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
566: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
567: with a command like:
568:
569: <blockquote><pre>
570: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
571: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_4</b>
572: </pre></blockquote>
573:
574: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
575: server.]
576: <p>
577: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
578: ports for the 6.4 release will be made available if problems arise.
579: <p>
580: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
581: would like to know more, the mailing list
582: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
