• OpenBSD 6.3 Released - Apr 2, 2018 (2/2)

    From Theo de Raadt@21:1/5 to All on Tue Apr 3 03:05:02 2018
    [continued from previous message]

    is a one-step ISO-format install CD image which contains the various
    *.tgz files so you do not need to fetch them separately.

    If you prefer to use a USB flash drive, fetch install63.fs and
    follow the instructions in INSTALL.amd64.

    5) If you are an expert, follow the instructions in the file called
    README; otherwise, use the more complete instructions in the
    file called INSTALL.amd64. INSTALL.amd64 may tell you that you
    need to fetch other files.

    6) Just in case, take a peek at:

    https://www.OpenBSD.org/errata.html

    This is the page where we talk about the mistakes we made while
    creating the 6.3 release, or the significant bugs we fixed
    post-release which we think our users should have fixes for.
    Patches and workarounds are clearly described there.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    - X.ORG FOR MOST ARCHITECTURES -----------------------------------------

    X.Org has been integrated more closely into the system. This release
    contains X.Org 7.7. Most of our architectures ship with X.Org, including amd64, sparc64 and macppc. During installation, you can install X.Org
    quite easily. Be sure to try out xenodm(1), our new, simplified X11
    display manager forked from xdm(1).

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    - PACKAGES AND PORTS ---------------------------------------------------

    Many third party software applications have been ported to OpenBSD and
    can be installed as pre-compiled binary packages on the various OpenBSD architectures. Please see https://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq15.html for
    more information on working with packages and ports.

    Note: a few popular ports, e.g., NSD, Unbound, and several X
    applications, come standard with OpenBSD and do not need to be installed separately.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    - SYSTEM SOURCE CODE ---------------------------------------------------

    The source code for all four subsystems can be found in the
    pub/OpenBSD/6.3/ directory:

    xenocara.tar.gz ports.tar.gz src.tar.gz sys.tar.gz

    The README (https://ftp.OpenBSD.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.3/README) file
    explains how to deal with these source files.

    We would like to thank all of the people who sent in bug reports, bug
    fixes, donation cheques, and hardware that we use. We would also like
    to thank those who bought our previous CD sets. Those who did not
