A question about OpenBSD

2007-06-12 Thread John Tate
I am downloading OpenBSD 4.2, I know how to use everything in that but being
young I am not too sure about the checksum format, md5 tends to rule the
world these days.

What is it called exactly?

I'm stuck with a Windows box at the moment, otherwise some thought and
pressing tab a couple of times would probably help me :p.

I probably just need to RTFM and I can make sure these FTP transfers
actually went down alright (I'm guessing they did but my router is a D-Link
turd that crashes and reboots itself sometimes). If any files have failed
ill just have to download them again.

You're a bit early for 4.2, the closest you'll get is 4.1-current
snapshots these days.  In the same directory where you find the
OpenBSD install files for your platform, you will also find two files
called CKSUM and MD5, which contain checksums and MD5 sums,
respectively for the files in the directory.  You can use the md5 or
cksum commands to generate sums and check that the results are the
same on your local copy as the one listed in the files (paranoids can
fetch checksum files and install files from different mirrors)

 I'm stuck with a Windows box at the moment, otherwise some thought and
 pressing tab a couple of times would probably help me :p.

IIRC both md5 and chksum are available in Windows versions.

See if you can get hold of an ftp client which supports file resume.

I'm confused, what exactly are you asking? If its how to check
a checksum, then read md5(1), cksum(1), otherwise be more
clear.

d/l cd41.iso, burn CD, boot from CD, install across network.  I'm doing 
something similar as I type with a Plextor landisk thingy.  By the way you 
didn't mention the platform.

John, you might want to consider purchasing the official OpenBSD 4.1
CD set. In your case, it may save you a lot of time and trouble with
your downloading problems. Plus, you'll get cool stickers and printed
installation instructions. Last, but not least, you'll be supporting
the project!

At the moment, the mirrors, including www.openbsd.org,  are down due to a CVS
problem..  So here is the source link:

because we don't trust our own os, and secretly all run mirbsd. that's
why. we just happened to come across some free solaris cd's and decided
the webserver was going to run that.

i was thinking of this:
/topic don't bother us with your stupid questions

too bad we can't hop onto every irc network and change the topics of
every single #openbsd, just a minor detail though...
