The best way to get an OpenBSD release (-release) and support us
is to buy a 3 CD set.
More information is available on our ordering page.
- If you choose not to buy an OpenBSD CD-ROM, you can also install
- OpenBSD with a CD-ROM or flash disk you create yourself.
- To achieve this, you have to download one of the following ISO or file
- system image files from our mirrors:
-
-
-
cdXX.iso to burn a minimal CD-ROM
- (roughly 8MB in size, boot only)
-
installXX.iso to burn a full CD-ROM
- (roughly 230MB in size, boot + sets)
-
minirootXX.fs to create a minimal boot media
- (for flash or HD image installs -- roughly 5M in size, boot only)
-
installXX.fs to burn a full bootable disk file system
- (for flash or HD image installs -- roughly 290M in size, boot + sets)
-
-
-
-
- If you choose cdXX.iso or minirootXX.fs, you will need to
- get the base and X sets via another media or network.
- Otherwise, if you choose installXX.iso or installXX.fs,
- you will not need anything but the
- application packages.
-
-
- Note that the paragraph above is also valid for the people interested in
- running -current.
- You can fetch installXX.iso from the latest snapshot and install or
- upgrade your system very quickly.
