Dan writes "OpenBSD team's Miod Vallat says that due to the upcoming release of OpenBSD 3.3, the 3.1-STABLE branch will have no more fixes committed to its branch after June 1, 2003 and should therefore be considered out of regular maintenance."

    Or save yourself a lot of time in the future and install an OS with user experience in mind like Debian Linux. Instead of trying to conform to the outdated 'BSD way', They do whats best for the user. a dist-upgrade in debian can easily upgrade an old install with ease.
    Why limit yourself to doing things the 30 year old BSD way? Computing shouldnt be as hard as it was back then.
