656: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
657: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</b>

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

691: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
692: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
693: OpenBSD ports system.
694: <p>
695: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
696: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
697: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
698: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
699: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
700: with a command like:
701:
702: <blockquote><pre>
703: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
1.11 beck 704: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_5</b>
1.1 beck 705: </pre></blockquote>
706:
707: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
708: server.]
709: <p>
710: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
711: ports for the 6.5 release will be made available if problems arise.
712: <p>
713: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
714: would like to know more, the mailing list
715: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
