510: <h3>Notes about the source code</h3>
511: <p>
512: <code>src.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src</code>.
513: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
514: which are in a separate archive.
515: To extract:
516: <blockquote><pre>
517: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src</kbd>
518: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
519: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</kbd>
520: </pre></blockquote>
521: <p>
522: <code>sys.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src/sys</code>.
523: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
524: To extract:
525: <blockquote><pre>
526: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</kbd>
527: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
528: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</kbd>
529: </pre></blockquote>
530: <p>
531: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
532: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
533: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
534: Using these files
535: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
536: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

542: <h3>Ports Tree</h3>
543: <p>
544: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
545: <blockquote><pre>
546: # <kbd>cd /usr</kbd>
547: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</kbd>
548: </pre></blockquote>
549: <p>
550: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
551: if you know nothing about ports
552: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
553: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
554: OpenBSD ports system.
555: <p>
556: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
557: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
558: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
559: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
560: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
561: with a command like:
562: <blockquote><pre>
563: # <kbd>cd /usr/ports</kbd>
564: # <kbd>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_7_3</kbd>
565: </pre></blockquote>
566: <p>
567: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
568: server.]
569: <p>
570: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
571: ports for the 7.3 release will be made available if problems arise.
572: <p>
573: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
574: would like to know more, the mailing list
575: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
