To install sets on OpenBSD after the initial installation, you can use the syspatch utility. The syspatch utility can be used to apply patches to the operating system and install sets.
To install sets using syspatch, follow these steps:
- Download the latest sets:
ftp https://cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/<version>/<architecture>/
Replace <version> with the version of OpenBSD you are using and <architecture> with the appropriate architecture (e.g., amd64).
- Extract the sets:
doas tar -xvzf <set>.tgz
Replace <set> with the set you want to extract (e.g., base, comp, etc.).
- Run
syspatchto install the sets:
doas syspatch
syspatch will install the sets and apply any necessary patches to the operating system. The process may take several minutes to complete.
Once syspatch has finished, you can verify that the sets have been installed by running the uname -a command and checking the version information.
That’s it! You should now have the latest sets installed on your OpenBSD system.
