OpenBSD Newbie!
I have been struggling with FreeBSD for a few months and I have finally given up on the idea after facing so many stupid bugs.
I have installed OpenBSD on my older netbook today, and I am currently watching a video on YouTube which explains installing XFCE on OpenBSD 5.2 (and I had to assume that it would work on 5.3 too). I have some questions in my mind. 1. In the video I watched, the poster downloaded ALL the packages using FTP. Is this the usual method, and would it still download all those packages if I run the FTP command at a later time? 2. How do I switch to -CURRENT, if it even exists? 3. Can you point me to a good how-to on upgrading the base system? Thanks beforehand! |
