Hello everybody, I use a Soekris net5501 running OpenBSD 4.6 (i386) to firewall my small network. I want to follow the -stable release to ensure that the system remains secure. From reading the OpenBSD documentation, I am left with the impression that:
- The only way to keep OpenBSD up to date in terms of security patches is to build my own system from -stable. - Cross compiling a system is not supported. I would rather not build a release on the Soekris box because it is quite slow and because it doesn't presently have enough disk space to store a complete source tree. All my other computers are either PowerPC or AMD64, so I don't believe these can be used to build an i386 release. I would welcome any suggestions regarding the best way to accomplish this. Regards, James.
