537: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
538: which are in a separate archive.
539: To extract:
540:
541: <blockquote><pre>
542: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src</b>
543: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
544: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</b>
545: </pre></blockquote>
546:
547: <tt>sys.tar.gz</tt> contains a source archive starting at <tt>/usr/src/sys</tt>.
548: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
549: To extract:
550:
551: <blockquote><pre>
552: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</b>

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

576: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
577: if you know nothing about ports
578: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
579: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
580: OpenBSD ports system.
581: <p>
582: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
583: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
584: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
585: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
586: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
587: with a command like:
588:
589: <blockquote><pre>
590: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
1.11 beck 591: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_5</b>
1.1 beck 592: </pre></blockquote>
593:
594: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
595: server.]
596: <p>
597: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
598: ports for the 6.5 release will be made available if problems arise.
599: <p>
600: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
601: would like to know more, the mailing list
602: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
