Thanks for reply. The OpenBSD 5.0 should be "release". Because I don't it from http://www.openbsd.org/ftp.html when I found there's 5.0 version available.
It's i386. It's a fresh install, with existing window xp. Now I can successfully boot into bsd or xp. It's installed from cd, which I burned from the downloaded install50.iso. It should be Generic.mp. I can see info after booting. I have a hard disk foler which include all the packages on internet, it includes packages for openbsd 4.5, packages for openbsd 5.0, maybe even have packages for openbsd 4.6. When I install new package, I point the PKG_PATH to that folder, and then install it like: pkg_add gnome-desktop-2.32.1p4.tgz. pkg_add gnugetopt-1.1.4p2.tgz The version of the package is the biggest one I found in the foler. And fyi, I don't think it's caused by packages of different versions in one folder, because the error are all tracked and rooted to one error: can't install gnugetopt: library c.51.0 not found; library intl.4.0 not found. It seems a mismatch between openbsd and package gnugetopt. for me, it seems gnugetopt need library c.51.0, but bsd is using packages like this: | /usr/lib/libc.so.60.1 (system): bad major | /usr/local/lib/libintl.so.5.0 (gettext-0.18.1p0): bad major Direct dependencies for gnugetopt-1.1.4p2 resolve to gettext-0.18.1p0 libiconv-1.13p2 Full dependency tree is gettext-0.18.1p0 libiconv-1.13p2 Any help is appreciated.
