That's right.
I did not read the "man" very carefully about "syspgrade".
It was a good learning experience. Thank you.

So that's how it happened.
I understand it well now.
These are the packages that you have to install and then
I will install all these packages and put them into operation.
Thank you so much.
Sincerely yours

Re: How to customise the OS update process
An option I can think about is downloading the upgrade kernel and booting from it, instead of using sysupgrade. The upgrade process will let you select which sets you want to install and which ones you want to exclude. In practice, I think you are better off just installing all the sets and being done with it. The old BSD Games rock hard. WATANABE Takeo wrote: Hi everyone, The most common way to upgrade OpenBSD is to use "sysupgrade".

Re: How to customise the OS update process
sysupgrade -n
rm /home/_sysupgrade/{x,game}*.tgz
reboot
Though I wouldn't bother unless very constrained on storage space.
A lot of time has been wasted by developers over the years when people
have not installed xbase (or worse, installed an old one but not updated
it) and run into problems with packages.

How to customise the OS update process
Hi everyone, The most common way to upgrade OpenBSD is to use "sysupgrade". However, I do not want to install certain packages (e.g. game). # When the host is built, it is not installed, because the Is there any way to upgrade to fulfil these wishes?
