Please feel free to volunteer to help replace these -installation tools. +To upgrade to OpenBSD 2.1 from a previous version, you should follow the +instructions on installing the system beginning with using the MacBSD +Install Utility. All you need do is copy each of the distribution sets in +over your current system from the MacOS. + +However, you should not copy the etc21.tar.gz file into the system. +Instead, download it while running OpenBSD and put it in /tmp or some other +harmless place and unpack it with a command like 'tar zxvf etc21.tar.gz'. +You will then have an etc directory with current system configuration files +in it. Use this to carefully upgrade your files in the running /etc and +reboot the system. Also, it is hihgly recommended that when upgrading your +kernel binary (/bsd) you backup the old, working kernel and extract +bsd21.tar.gz into / only from OpenBSD. |
