OpenBSD installation

[edit | edit source]

OpenBSD has an easy (although non-graphical) installation procedure.

Starting Installation

[edit | edit source]
erase ^?, werase ^W, kill ^U, intr ^C, status ^T
(I)nstall, (U)pgrade or (S)hell? i

Welcome to the OpenBSD/i386 4.4 install program.

This program will help you install OpenBSD. At any prompt except password
prompts you can escape to a shell by typing '!'. Default answers are shown
in []'s and are selected by pressing RETURN.  At any time you can exit this
program by pressing Control-C, but exiting during an install can leave your
system in an inconsistent state.

Terminal type: [vt220] <enter>
kbd(8) mapping? ('L' for list) [none] <enter>

IS YOUR DATA BACKED UP? As with anything that modifies disk contents, this
program can cause SIGNIFICANT data loss.

It is often helpful to have the installation notes handy. For complex disk
configurations, relevant disk hardware manuals and a calculator are useful.

Proceed with install? [no] yes
Cool!  Let's get to it.

You will now initialize the disk(s) that OpenBSD will use. To enable all
available security features you should configure the disk(s) to allow the
creation of separate filesystems for /, /tmp, /var, /usr, and /home.

Available disks are: wd0.
Which one is the root disk? (or done) [wd0] <enter>
Do you want to use *all* of wd0 for OpenBSD? [no] yes
Putting all of wd0 into an active OpenBSD MBR partion (type 'A6')...done.

You will now create an OpenBSD disklabel inside the OpenBSD MBR
partition. The disklabel defines how OpenBSD splits up the MBR partition
into OpenBSD partitions in which filesystems and swap space are created.

The offsets used in the disklabel are ABSOLUTE, i.e. relative to the
start of the disk, NOT the start of the OpenBSD MBR partition.

# Inside MBR partition 3: type A6 start 63 size 80292807

Treating sectors 63-80292870 as the OpenBSD portion of the disk.
You can use the 'b' command to change this.

Notes

[edit | edit source]

Template:FnbThis controls how much memory is in the root partition. I would not recomend using 10g as the example used. 5g would be plenty.
Template:FnbThis controls how much memory the swap partition has.
Template:FnbThis controls how much memory the tmp partition has.
Template:FnbThis controls how much memory the var partition has.
Template:FnbThis controls how much memory the usr partition has. The usr partition is where you store all of your program. Vary the size depending on how many applications you want. 10g is good for a workstation. 3g is enough for a server.
Template:FnbThis controls how much memory the home partition has.
Template:FnbIf you want to use OpenBSD as a desktop or a workstation, you may want to use dhcp.
Template:FnbUsually you will use your router as a DNS server (192.168.1.1).
