Well... Let me show you how I would do it...... Reinstall OpenBSD 3.7 from the CD. Download the SRC and the ports from a Server and burn it at a CD or store it local at e.g. a FTP: ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/3.7/ports.tar.gz ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/3.7/src.tar.gz ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/3.7/sys.tar.gz ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/3.7/XF4.tar.gz If you installed OpenBSD just execute some scripts (e.g. as r00t): E.g. I used CD-ROM (but hey I used a CD-Set (Thanks to WIM! =)) as Src.. But because you've to download these files you've 1 more archiv (sys.tar.gz) --placefiles.ksh-- #!/bin/ksh # # Why don't they use Bzip2 or Gratis-ZIP with RZIP-Like functionality... # It would safe so much download-time and traffic... # cd /mnt/cdrom cp ports.tar.gz /usr cp XF4.tar.gz /usr cp src.tar.gz /usr cp sys.tar.gz /usr/src cd /usr tar xfz ports.tar.gz && rm ports.tar.gz tar xfz XF4.tar.gz && rm XF4.tar.gz tar xfz src.tar.gz && rm src.tar.gz cd /usr/src/ tar xvz sys.tar.gz && rm sys.tar.gz -------------- After that you should create a Script wich fetchs the updates via AnonCVS (e.g. the Port-Updates wich are avaiable). --update.ksh-- #!/bin/ksh cd /usr export [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs cvs -q -z5 update -rOPENBSD_3_7 ports cvs -q -z5 update -rOPENBSD_3_7 src -------------- You can include that into a Cronjob. Just play a littlebit with that idea. Now you've the updated src/ports... Hurai! --kernel.ksh-- #!/bin/ksh kernel="GENERIC" arch="i386" cd /usr/src/sys/arch/$arch/conf config $kernel cd ../compile/$kernel make clean && make depend && make cp /bsd /bsd.old cp bsd /bsd reboot -------------- --userland.ksh-- #!/bin/ksh cd /usr/src rm -rf /usr/obj/* make obj make build -------------- You should have no problems... Kind regards, Sebastian
