I think this can be done pretty easy once you figured out what options
you do need for your specific installation by removing the code that

Daniel, maybe you should pass over natural instinct of being

Hello,
I was trying to install OpenBSD-current on a Thinkpad T43, model
2669-R1G. I used the .iso file to create the CD-ROM and run it for

I'm not sure I got it right, because I'm not familiar with the

maybe someone can pinpoint the mistakes.

and sha256s are compiled for each fil
So the process I thought about it's not true. Better to remove the
SHA256 then, what purpose can it serve if it is not syncronised?
I still don't figure out why this checksum missmatch is ( on the same
server, not among servers).
Hello Philip Guenther,
It looks like your answer is the most valuable for me. So, by my

uploads them to the ftp server but he doesn't compile the sha256
