Hello, I have an encrypted installation of OpenBSD 7.9 i386 on a hard drive. This is on a computer with no internet connection, completely offline. Is there a way to upgrade to 8.0 using a USB drive? If so, how?
You can rsync an OpenBSD mirror's i386 files to an USB stick and point sysupgrade to it. And point installurl(5) to the USB stick. Needs quite a lot of space but same method can be used for later updates.
