932: <h3>Notes about the source code</h3>
933: <p>
934: <code>src.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src</code>.
935: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
936: which are in a separate archive.
937: To extract:
938: <blockquote><pre>
939: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src</kbd>
940: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
941: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</kbd>
942: </pre></blockquote>
943: <p>
944: <code>sys.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src/sys</code>.
945: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
946: To extract:
947: <blockquote><pre>
948: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</kbd>
949: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
950: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</kbd>
951: </pre></blockquote>
952: <p>
953: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
954: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
955: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
956: Using these files
957: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
958: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

964: <h3>Ports Tree</h3>
965: <p>
966: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
967: <blockquote><pre>
968: # <kbd>cd /usr</kbd>
969: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</kbd>
970: </pre></blockquote>
971: <p>
972: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
973: if you know nothing about ports
974: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
975: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
976: OpenBSD ports system.
977: <p>
978: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
979: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
980: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
981: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
982: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
983: with a command like:
984: <blockquote><pre>
985: # <kbd>cd /usr/ports</kbd>
986: # <kbd>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_7_0</kbd>
987: </pre></blockquote>
988: <p>
989: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
990: server.]
991: <p>
992: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
993: ports for the 7.0 release will be made available if problems arise.
994: <p>
995: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
996: would like to know more, the mailing list
997: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
