# Auto-install OpenBSD on QEMU
-This repository hosts a POSIX shell script to auto-install OpenBSD/amd64 6.7 to
-copy-on-write disk image using QEMU. The script is intended to run on Linux. If
-you already have a running OpenBSD installation, you should consider to use
-OpenBSD's own hypervisor [vmm(4)](https://man.openbsd.org/vmm) instead of QEMU
-as described in the [OpenBSD FAQ](https://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq16.html) and
-in this [blog post](https://eradman.com/posts/autoinstall-openbsd.html).
-
-The script will:
-
-* Download and verify the official installation image and file sets.
-* Create and serve a TFTP boot environment.
-* Create an [autoinstall(8)](https://man.openbsd.org/autoinstall) configuration file including your public ssh key.
-* Create and boot a copy-on-write disk image.
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-The script depends on the following tools:
-
-* [QEMU](https://www.qemu.org/)
-* [curl](https://curl.haxx.se/)
-* Portable [signify](https://github.com/aperezdc/signify)
-* [rsync](https://rsync.samba.org/)
-* Portable [OpenSSH](https://www.openssh.com/portable.html)
-* [socat](http://www.dest-unreach.org/socat/)
-
-The following command installs these dependencies on Arch Linux:
-
- sudo pacman -S qemu curl signify rsync openssh socat
-
-## Usage
-
-Execute the following command to auto-install OpenBSD/amd64 6.7 to a new disk
-image `disk.qcow2` in the current directory.
-
- ./run
-
-When prompted, run the following command to serve `./mirror/` at
-http://127.0.0.1:8080/:
-
- python -m http.server --directory ./mirror --bind 127.0.0.1 8080
-
-You can override the following environment variable defaults if necessary:
-
-* `DISK_FILE=disk.qcow2`
-* `DISK_SIZE=160G`
-* `CPU_COUNT=6`
-* `MEMORY_SIZE=4G`
-
-For example:
-
- CPU_COUNT=1 ./run
-
-## Virtual network
-
-The script creates a virtual network, `10.0.2.0/24`, with the following
-addresses:
-
-* Host at `10.0.2.2`
-* Nameserver at `10.0.2.3`
-* Guest at `10.0.2.15`
-
-The script also redirects host host port `2222` to guest port `22` (ssh) and
-host port `80` (actually `10.0.2.1` port `80`) to host port `8080`.
-
-## Secure shell
-
-Pass the following options to ssh or scp to connect to the guest machine:
-
- ssh \
- -o "StrictHostKeyChecking no" \
- -o "UserKnownHostsFile /dev/null" \
- -o "Port 2222" \
- puffy@127.0.0.1
-
-For example, the following command forwards port `3000` on the host to port
-`80` on the guest:
-
- ssh \
- -o "StrictHostKeyChecking no" \
- -o "UserKnownHostsFile /dev/null" \
- -o "Port 2222" \
- -N \
- -L 127.0.0.1:3000:127.0.0.1:80 \
- puffy@127.0.0.1
-
-Press `C-a x` to stop the guest machine.
-Press `C-a h` to show other options.
