618:
619: <blockquote><pre>
620: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src</b>
621: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
622: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</b>

624:
625: <tt>sys.tar.gz</tt> contains a source archive starting at <tt>/usr/src/sys</tt>.

655: if you know nothing about ports
656: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
657: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
658: OpenBSD ports system.
659: <p>
660: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
661: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
662: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
663: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
664: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
665: with a command like:
666:
667: <blockquote><pre>
668: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
1.11 beck 669: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_5</b>
1.1 beck 670: </pre></blockquote>
671:
672: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
673: server.]
674: <p>
675: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
676: ports for the 6.5 release will be made available if problems arise.
677: <p>
678: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
679: would like to know more, the mailing list
680: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
