With the recent release of OpenBSD 7.5, I decided to run through my personal OpenBSD “installer” for laptop/desktop devices. The project is built off of the dwm tiling window manager and only installs a few basic packages. The last time I updated it was with the release of 7.3, so it’s been due for an minor rework.

While making these minor changes, I remembered how incredibly easy the entire install process for OpenBSD is and how cozy the entire operating system feels. All the core systems just work out the box. Yes, you need to “patch” in WiFi with a firmware update, so you’ll need an Ethernet connection during the initial setup. Yes, the default desktop environment is not intuitive or ideal for newcomers.

Try it Yourself!

I’ve tried my best to write up a simplified, noob-friendly guide on both setting up the core OpenBSD system, along with installing a simple dwm based desktop environment. These are both focused on personal devices (laptops/computers), so if you’re looking for server-specific setups you won’t find that here!

You can find both of those wiki-pages below:
