+ <p>To install OpenBSD/landisk onto an emulated harddisk image,
+ follow these instructions:
+ <p>
+ <ol>
+   <li>Create an empty harddisk image, which will be the root disk

+         <b>dd if=/dev/zero of=obsd_landisk.img bs=1024 count=1 seek=2000000</b>
+ </pre>
+   <li>Download the entire landisk directory from the ftp server:<pre>
+         <b>wget -np -l 0 -r <a href="ftp://ftp.se.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.1/landisk/">ftp://ftp.se.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.1/landisk/</a></b>
+         <b>cp ftp.se.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.1/landisk/bsd .</b>
+         <b>cp ftp.se.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.1/landisk/bsd.rd .</b>
+ </pre>
+         (Replace ftp.se.openbsd.org with a server closer to you, for
+         increased download speed.)
+   <p>
+   <li>You now need to make an ISO image of the entire directory you downloaded.
+         (I recommend using <tt>mkisofs</tt> for that purpose. If you don't
+         already have <tt>mkisofs</tt> installed on your system, you need
+         to install it in order to do this.)<pre>
+         <b>mkisofs -U -o openbsd_landisk_4.1.iso ftp.se.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/</b>
+         <b>rm -rf ftp.se.openbsd.org</b>      <i>(this directory is not needed anymore)</i>
+ </pre>
+   <li>Start the emulator using this command line:<pre>
+         <b>gxemul -x -E landisk -d obsd_landisk.img -d d:openbsd_landisk_4.1.iso bsd.rd</b>
+ </pre>
+         and proceed like you would do if you were installing OpenBSD
+         on a real landisk. The following hints are useful to get you
+         through the installation:
+         <ul>
+           <li>Terminal type = <b>xterm</b>
+           <li>root disk = <b>wd0</b> (the disk to install onto)
+           <li>Use the entire disk for OpenBSD = <b>yes</b>
+           <li>Create one big root partition (a) and a small swap partition (b). c is the entire disk.
+           <li>Do <b>not</b> configure the network. (The Realtek NIC
+                 found in the Landisk machine is not implemented yet
+                 in the emulator.)
+           <li>Location of sets = <b>disk</b>
+           <li>Is the disk partition already mounted = <b>no</b>
+           <li>Disk containing the install media = <b>wd1</b>
+           <li>Pathname to the sets = <b>4.1/landisk</b>
+         </ul>
+ </ol>
+ <p>Once the install has finished, the following command should let you
+ boot from the disk image:
+ <p><pre>
+         <b>gxemul -x -E landisk -d obsd_landisk.img bsd</b>
+ </pre>
+ <p>As with most emulation modes in GXemul, the NIC in this machine is
+ not emulated yet. If you want to transfer files to/from the emulated
+ landisk machine, see
+ <a href="misc.html#filexfer">this chapter</a> in the documentation.

- <h3>OpenBSD/landisk:</h3>
- It is possible to install and run
- <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/landisk.html">OpenBSD/landisk</a>
- in GXemul. There is at the time of writing this no stable release
- yet of OpenBSD/landisk, but there are snapshots available on the
- OpenBSD ftp site.
- <p>To install OpenBSD/landisk onto an emulated harddisk image,
- follow these instructions:
- <p>
- <ol>
-   <li>Create an empty harddisk image, which will be the root disk
-         that OpenBSD installs itself onto:<pre>
-         <b>dd if=/dev/zero of=obsd_landisk.img bs=1024 count=1 seek=900000</b>
- </pre>
-   <li>Download the entire landisk directory from the ftp server:<pre>
-         <b>wget -np -l 0 -r <a href="ftp://ftp.se.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/landisk/">ftp://ftp.se.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/landisk/</a></b>
-         <b>cp ftp.se.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/landisk/bsd .</b>
-         <b>cp ftp.se.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/landisk/bsd.rd .</b>
- </pre>
-         (Replace ftp.se.openbsd.org with a server closer to you, for
-         increased download speed.)
-   <p>
-   <li>You now need to make an ISO image of the entire directory you downloaded.
-         (I recommend using <tt>mkisofs</tt> for that purpose. If you don't
-         already have <tt>mkisofs</tt> installed on your system, you need
-         to install it in order to do this.)<pre>
-         <b>mkisofs -allow-lowercase -o openbsd_landisk_snapshot.iso ftp.se.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/</b>
-         <b>rm -rf ftp.se.openbsd.org</b>      <i>(this directory is not needed anymore)</i>
- </pre>
-   <li>Start the emulator using this command line:<pre>
-         <b>gxemul -x -Elandisk -d obsd_landisk.img -d d:openbsd_landisk_snapshot.iso bsd.rd</b>
- </pre>
-         and proceed like you would do if you were installing OpenBSD
-         on a real landisk. The following hints are useful to get you
-         through the installation:
-         <ul>
-           <li>Terminal type = <b>xterm</b>
-           <li>root disk = <b>wd0</b> (the disk to install onto)
-           <li>Use the entire disk for OpenBSD = <b>yes</b>
-           <li>Create one big root partition (a) and a small swap partition (b). c is the entire disk.
-           <li>Do <b>not</b> configure the network.
-           <li>Location of sets = <b>disk</b>
-           <li>Is the disk partition already mounted = <b>no</b>
-           <li>Disk containing the install media = <b>wd1</b>
-           <li>Pathname to the sets = <b>snapshot/landisk</b>
-         </ul>
- </ol>
- <p>Once the install has finished, the following command should let you
- boot from the disk image:
- <p><pre>
-         <b>gxemul -x -E landisk -d obsd_landisk.img bsd</b>
- </pre>
