Many people responded to the call for OpenBSD and OpenSSH donations by purchasing an OpenBSD CD set. Those CDs are beginning to arrive in the mail, and when they do, how are you going to use them? If you're a software enthusiast who has never used OpenBSD before, you might enjoy installing it by yourself and figuring it out as you go. If, however, you're looking for a more practical approach to using OpenBSD as a desktop or server operating system, here's a guide to get you started.

Did you have previous experience with *nix? Did you have previous experience working with web servers? I am pretty sure you knew how to use BASH, let alone knowing what a CLI is...
While I appreciate OpenBSD as a secure platform, I am pretty sure that ease of use and intuitiveness aren't one of OpenBSD features.

there was already a good installation manual provided with OpenBSD CDs
I thought that too. These "installation manual" is actually a few notes that are definately not enough for the new user. And the seasoned user doesn't need those notes. Nonesense.
