Creating FuguIta LiveDVD
Creating FuguIta LiveUSB
Booting FuguIta

OpenBSD has the utility for burning DVD-R/DVD-RW, called cdio.

And FuguIta has a tool which whole FuguIta system into another USB frashdrive.

So, if you wish to get a USB flashdrive version of FuguIta,

First, create a FuguIta LiveDVD.
Next, boot that LiveDVD, then create another USB version of Fuguita, using usbfadm utility on the LiveDVD version FuguIta.

Creating FuguIta LiveDVD†

Download the ISO image of FuguIta from the site described in FuguIta/Download.
```
ftp http://'''mirror-of-fuguita'''/FuguIta-6.X-20YYMMDDN.iso.gz
```
Note that the part YYMMDDN must be replaced with the version string of real ISO image.

After decompression completed, burn that image into DVD-R or DVD-RW.

gzip -d FuguIta-6.X-20YYMMDDN.iso.gz
dvd-format /dev/rcd0c    (format media, if you will be burn it first)
growisofs --dvd-compt -Z /dev/rcd0c=FuguIta-6.X-20YYMMDDN.iso

Creating FuguIta LiveUSB†

First, create FuguIta LiveDVD according above description, then run it.

# usbfadm

Welcome to usbfadm.
USB flash drive maintenance tool for FuguIta

     Boot mode: manual

Type ? for help.

? : ? --> newdrive

Scanning USB devices after pressing ENTER.

Please make sure the device inserted.
Then press ENTER -->

Enter the device name of USB flash drive.
Contents of system log entries are displayed for your information;

============================================================
Enter name of device which FuguIta will be installed --> sd0

Enter y to set up FuguIta-bootable USB flash drive *1.

Do you make this USB flash drive bootable? [y/n] -> y

After transferring the system, by specifying '*', the rest will be allocated as the partition which user will save his data.

Enter size for saving User Data in MB (311MB free).
'*' implies all --> *

Otherwise the numeric value should be entered as the size of saving data (MB)
Room not used as OpenBSD's area will be formatted as FAT.
For example;

Enter size for saving User Data in MB (311MB free).
'*' implies all --> 250

in case of this, 250MB is for saving data of FuguIta user. and 61MB becomes FAT.
Finally, you'll be asked whether the device is that you really intend.

***THIS IS THE LAST CHANCE***
If you type 'Y' now, all the data on sd0 will be lost.
Are you sure to initialize sd0? [y/N] -> y

After this, formatting filesystems and copying system files are done. Then FuguIta LiveUSB is completed.

Booting FuguIta†

After booting from DVD/USB, some user inputs will be prompted;

disks: *cd0a fd0 fd1 rd0 sd0
Disk to boot FuguIta? [cd0a] ->

'*' means the device which stores FuguIta system

  user memory: 267927552 bytes
mfs available: 10MB to 255MB
[default: 127MB] ->

Only entering "ENTER", half amount of attached memory is specified by default.

set mfs size to default: 127MB

Choose the way of boot

Select boot mode;
  0: fresh boot (normal)
  1: fresh boot (lower memory, faster boot than mode 0)
  2: fresh boot (everything on mfs)
  3: retrieve user data from USB flash memory
  4: retrieve user data from floppy disk
  5: interactive shell for debugging
->0

0 normal fresh boot mode: Like booting just after fresh install. Some parameters are needed to be entered manually. This is the standard fresh boot method.
1 fresh boot with faster and less memory: Same as above.
But under /usr, all files and directories are read only.
2 everything on mfs mode (i.e. diskless mode): Same as mode 0.
All files and directories will have copied on mfs. This mode requires about more than 650--700MB RAM.
3 Restoring user data from USB flashdrive: After DVD/USB boot, extract files which were stored in USB flash. (to be more described)
4 Restoring user data from floppy disk: Same as above, but extracting from floppy disk. (to be more described)
5 Interactive shell mode: After DVD/USB boot, single user shell invoked. This is intended for system debug.

At first, you should enter mode 0 (recommended) or mode 1.

Running manual setup.
Copying system files to /mfs ... done
Extracting symlinks from /mfs to /fuguita ... done

 * "none" for not using DNS
-> 192.168.18.254

IPv4 addr of this host -> 192.168.18.25
netmask                -> 255.255.255.0
default route          -> 192.168.18.254

In above case;

IPv4 was configured manually.
IPv6 was set up as end node by automatic stateless configuration.

...then you will see a login prompt.

Generation of SSH and isakmpd keys take some time while booting.
