! 484: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to
! 485: read INSTALL.i386.
! 486:
! 487: <h3>OpenBSD/landisk:</h3>
! 488:
! 489: <p>
! 490: Write <i>miniroot70.img</i> to the start of the CF
! 491: or disk, and boot normally.
! 492:
! 493: <h3>OpenBSD/loongson:</h3>
! 494:
! 495: <p>
! 496: Write <i>miniroot70.img</i> to a USB stick and boot bsd.rd from it
! 497: or boot bsd.rd via tftp.
! 498: Refer to the instructions in INSTALL.loongson for more details.
! 499:
! 500: <h3>OpenBSD/luna88k:</h3>
! 501:
! 502: <p>
! 503: Copy 'boot' and 'bsd.rd' to a Mach or UniOS partition, and boot the bootloader
! 504: from the PROM, and then bsd.rd from the bootloader.
! 505: Refer to the instructions in INSTALL.luna88k for more details.
! 506:
! 507: <h3>OpenBSD/macppc:</h3>
! 508:
! 509: <p>
! 510: Burn the image from a mirror site to a CDROM, and power on your machine
! 511: while holding down the <i>C</i> key until the display turns on and
! 512: shows <i>OpenBSD/macppc boot</i>.
! 513:
! 514: <p>
! 515: Alternatively, at the Open Firmware prompt, enter <i>boot cd:,ofwboot
! 516: /7.0/macppc/bsd.rd</i>
! 517:
! 518: <h3>OpenBSD/octeon:</h3>
! 519:
! 520: <p>
! 521: After connecting a serial port, boot bsd.rd over the network via DHCP/tftp.
! 522: Refer to the instructions in INSTALL.octeon for more details.
! 523:
! 524: <h3>OpenBSD/powerpc64:</h3>
! 525:
! 526: <p>
! 527: To install, write <i>install70.img</i> or <i>miniroot70.img</i> to a
! 528: USB stick, plug it into the machine and choose the <i>OpenBSD
! 529: install</i> menu item in Petitboot.
! 530: Refer to the instructions in INSTALL.powerpc64 for more details.
! 531:
! 532: <h3>OpenBSD/sgi:</h3>
! 533:
! 534: <p>
! 535: To install, burn cd70.iso on a CD-R, put it in the CD drive of your
! 536: machine and select <i>Install System Software</i> from the System Maintenance
! 537: menu. Indigo/Indy/Indigo2 (R4000) systems will not boot automatically from
! 538: CD-ROM, and need a proper invocation from the PROM prompt.
! 539: Refer to the instructions in INSTALL.sgi for more details.
! 540:
! 541: <p>
! 542: If your machine doesn't have a CD drive, you can setup a DHCP/tftp network
! 543: server, and boot using "bootp()/bsd.rd.IP##" using the kernel matching your
! 544: system type. Refer to the instructions in INSTALL.sgi for more details.
! 545:
! 546: <h3>OpenBSD/sparc64:</h3>
! 547:
! 548: <p>
! 549: Burn the image from a mirror site to a CDROM, boot from it, and type
! 550: <i>boot cdrom</i>.
! 551:
! 552: <p>
! 553: If this doesn't work, or if you don't have a CDROM drive, you can write
! 554: <i>floppy70.img</i> or <i>floppyB70.img</i>
! 555: (depending on your machine) to a floppy and boot it with <i>boot
! 556: floppy</i>. Refer to INSTALL.sparc64 for details.
! 557:
! 558: <p>
! 559: Make sure you use a properly formatted floppy with NO BAD BLOCKS or your install
! 560: will most likely fail.
! 561:
! 562: <p>
! 563: You can also write <i>miniroot70.img</i> to the swap partition on
! 564: the disk and boot with <i>boot disk:b</i>.
! 565:
! 566: <p>
! 567: If nothing works, you can boot over the network as described in INSTALL.sparc64.

! 583: <h3>Notes about the source code</h3>
! 584: <p>
! 585: <code>src.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src</code>.
! 586: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
! 587: which are in a separate archive.
! 588: To extract:
! 589: <blockquote><pre>
! 590: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src</kbd>
! 591: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
! 592: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</kbd>
! 593: </pre></blockquote>
! 594: <p>
! 595: <code>sys.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src/sys</code>.
! 596: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
! 597: To extract:
! 598: <blockquote><pre>
! 599: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</kbd>
! 600: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
! 601: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</kbd>
! 602: </pre></blockquote>
! 603: <p>
! 604: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
! 605: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
! 606: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
! 607: Using these files
! 608: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
! 609: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

! 615: <h3>Ports Tree</h3>
! 616: <p>
! 617: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
! 618: <blockquote><pre>
! 619: # <kbd>cd /usr</kbd>
! 620: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</kbd>
! 621: </pre></blockquote>
! 622: <p>
! 623: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
! 624: if you know nothing about ports
! 625: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
! 626: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
! 627: OpenBSD ports system.
! 628: <p>
! 629: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
! 630: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
! 631: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
! 632: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
! 633: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
! 634: with a command like:
! 635: <blockquote><pre>
! 636: # <kbd>cd /usr/ports</kbd>
! 637: # <kbd>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_7_0</kbd>
! 638: </pre></blockquote>
! 639: <p>
! 640: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
! 641: server.]
! 642: <p>
! 643: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
! 644: ports for the 7.0 release will be made available if problems arise.
! 645: <p>
! 646: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
! 647: would like to know more, the mailing list
! 648: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
