It's quite easy.
Just download .img file from:
(https://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq4.html#Download)
I use usb stick for installing operation systems.
on gnu/linux I type command fdisk -l and see the partitions list like that:
/dev/sda is ssd from the laptop, but /dev/sdb the one I'd use for installing operation system is /dev/sdb. CD/DVD would be something like /dev/sr0
so first we gotta localize, where install74.img is located.
If it's /home/user/Downloads then
After writing an image to the stick, we can reboot the laptop/PC and boot into openBSD. Installation is quite easy, the whole process is simple. There's no gui, but still, it's simple ;-).
To be continued...
