The ARC specific portion of the OpenBSD 2.2 release is found in the "arc" subdirectory of the distribution. That subdirectory is laid out as follows: .../2.2/arc/ INSTALL.arc Installation notes; this file. bsd.rd ARC RAMDISK kernel. This is the kernel that should be booted when installing OpenBSD. *.gz ARC binary distribution sets; see below. bsd ARC GENERIC kernel in ELF format. This is the kernel installed by the install script. bsd.ecoff ARC GENERIC kernel in ECOFF format. This kernel may be used to boot a system from a MSDOS disk. The ARC ramdisk image is a bootable kernel+rootimage. This kernel is used when a system is installed for the first time. The file is in ECOFF format. The OpenBSD/arc binary distribution sets contain the binaries which comprise the OpenBSD 2.2 release for ARC systems. There are seven binary distribution sets. The binary distribution sets can be found in subdirectories of the "arc/bins" subdirectory of the OpenBSD 2.2 distribution tree, and are as follows: base22 The OpenBSD/arc 2.2 base binary distribution. You MUST install this distribution set. It contains the base OpenBSD utilities that are necessary for the system to run and be minimally functional. It includes shared library support, and excludes everything described below. [ 15.0M gzipped, 50.9M uncompressed ] comp22 The OpenBSD/arc Compiler tools. All of the tools relating to C, C++, and FORTRAN (yes, there are two!). This set includes the system include files (/usr/include), the linker, the compiler tool chain, and the various system libraries (except the shared libraries, which are included as part of the base set). This set also includes the manual pages for all of the utilities it contains, as well as the system call and library manual pages. [ 15.9M gzipped, 60.2M uncompressed ] etc22 This distribution set contains the system configuration files that reside in /etc and in several other places. This set MUST be installed if you are installing the system from scratch, but should NOT be used if you are upgrading. (If you are upgrading, it's recommended that you get a copy of this set and CAREFULLY upgrade your configuration files by hand.) [ 92K gzipped, 450K uncompressed ] game22 This set includes the games and their manual pages. [ 2.9M gzipped, 7.5M uncompressed ] man22 This set includes all of the manual pages for the binaries and other software contained in the base set. Note that it does not include any of the manual pages that are included in the other sets. [ 2.5M gzipped, 9.4M uncompressed ] misc22 This set includes the system dictionaries (which are rather large), the typesettable document set, and man pages for other architectures which happen to be installed from the source tree by default. [ 1.8M gzipped, 6.2M uncompressed ] text22 This set includes OpenBSD's text processing tools, including groff, all related programs, and their manual pages. [ 1.0M gzipped, 4.2M uncompressed ]
