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

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