NocMonkey...Quick OpenBSD question...

[ToyMachine]

hey why cant i find an actual OpendBSD.ISO file in any of the ftp mirros for OpenBSD???

All i am seeing is a bunch of directories and gzip files. Cant i just download the ISO?

you shouldn't really address a post to one person... there are others here that can help you as much if not more than one single person. This is just my opinion though... take it as you want...

OpenBSD doesn't offer ISO downloads. You can do a FTP install, or you will have to purchase the ISO from one of their retailers.

There are unofficial ISO's for download, Theo holds the copyright on the ISO layout itself, rather than the contents, just look for "unofficial openbsd iso" or something on google and you should find it.

Or you can buy it, it's just $30 😉

$40 for 3.0. They added a third disk and another bootable arch.

ToyMachine, BSD documentation is years ahead of linux documentation 😉 That will explain the .iso situation.

NOCmonkey, is this question to resolve a personal or company issue?

If that was supposed to be a comment about how this should have been a pm or not addressed to me then I agree. If that was not your intent, HUH? 🙂
