install53.img

2013-06-27 Thread hipstar
The image files found on the web for install53.iso, i.e install53.img for
amd64 have mostly bugs (all I've found!).
We use it for usb-install.
As we don't have cdroms or optical drives at all, could you make it and
put for download on the mirrors 0f openbsd.org?you are the professionals!
Thank you for you wonderful operating system, it's my favorite.
Thank you again.
Phil

(Or can you do it in the future?)

install53.iso isn't meant to work for USB drives, it is an ISO9660 image
for writing to CD.

I don't have optical drives on most of my machines either.  I have been
using pxeboot(8) to install OpenBSD on them for a long time, very easy
to setup (just run a tftp server and add a couple of lines to dhcp config)
and it works nicely.
