 Here are the  
 <a href="ftp://ftp.OpenBSD.org/pub/OpenBSD/3.2/alpha/INSTALL.alpha">  
 OpenBSD/alpha 3.2 installation instructions  
 </a>.

 Snapshots are made available from time to time, in

 There are several installation media provided:  
 <ul>  
   <li><strong>CD boot</strong>  
   <p>  
   Booting off the OpenBSD CD provides an <i>El Torito</i> 2.88MB floppy image  
   that contains drivers for the most popular devices found in alpha  
   hardware.  
   This also includes minimal USB support (storage devices, keyboard and  
   some ethernet adapters).<br>  
   For the latest list of drivers available on this image, please take a  
   look at the  
   <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/sys/arch/alpha/conf/RAMDISKBIG?rev=HEAD">RAMDISKBIG</a>  
   kernel configuration file.  
   </p></li>  
   <li><strong>Floppy A</strong> (floppy32.fs)  
   <p>  
   This 1.44MB floppy image supports the following alpha hardware:  
   <ul>  
     <li>AlphaStation 200, 250, 255, 400</li>  
     <!-- <li>AlphaStation 500, 600</li> -->  
     <li>AlphaServer 800, 1000 and 1000A</li>  
     <li>AXPpci33 based machines, such as the ``Noname'', UDB, and Multia</li>  
     <li>EB164 based machines, such as the PC164, 164SX and 164LX</li>  
     <li>Personal Workstation (Miata)</li>  
   </ul>  
   It contains support for the on-board devices found on these machines,  
   however due to lack of place there are only few other drivers.  
   In particular, <i>this floppy lacks cdrom support</i> and will <i>not</i>  
   allow installation from cdrom media.<br>
