- fix up sizes for various sets based on info from tv@ (any errors are
probably due to my conversion rather than his data)
- .Ic commands, .Pa paths, .Tn trade names
 1.25 29-Oct-2000  shin correct xbase and xcontrib sizes of mips.
 1.24 25-Oct-2000  shin update hpcmips and mips set sizes (unpacked on 8K/1K ffs).

 1.19 10-Oct-2000  lukem - move arch setting logic from main -> macros, and change as follows:
- define string `A' to contain the arch name (defaults to the port
name)
- define registers \*A and _\*A if
- deprecate _FOR_RELEASE, and just use FOR_RELEASE
 1.18 10-Oct-2000  lukem migrate */contents -> common/contents, as there was *way* too much
unnecessary duplication. wrap the MD stuff in .if r_foo \{\ ... .\}
 1.17 24-May-1999  ross * Delete sun3x from SUBDIR
* The merged contents file didn't work out, so nuke it and put it back
into each port directory. Most still have the now-pointless conditionals;
these now should be deleted.
* fix alpha, amiga, and arm32 to delete the maze of twisty little conditionals

 1.2 25-Jan-1999  garbled 1) Remove all vestiges of tar from src/distrib. Use pax and appropriate
commandlines for all tar operations. (work supplied by Matt Green)
2) Update arch/*/md.c to deal with new sysinst/run.c. Special case
anything that needs to do a redirect or a pipe.
3) #if 0 some unused code in target.c. This code will need to be updated,
or special cased with do_system.

Big thank you to Matt for all his work on this.

 1.126 15-May-2020  kamil Fix typo

Reported by vezhlys on IRC.

 1.124 03-Dec-2019  uwe Drop entries for "Scott Bartram and Frank van der Linden" and "the
University of Illinois at Urbana and their contributors". They are
not referenced anywhere in the tree.
 1.123 03-Dec-2019  uwe Add a comment to the entry for Computer Systems Laboratory at the
University of Utah. It's missed by the extraction script b/c of the
non-standard formatting of the ad clause.
 1.122 03-Dec-2019  uwe Move the entry for Caldera to its proper place in the sorting order.
 1.121 03-Dec-2019  uwe Use troff \(xx names for the few accented characters we have here.

utf-8 and some in latin1. While here also use \(:o for Bodo Moeller
name as instructed. Lule\(oa is now emited by the extraction script
directly.

This gives us the right characters in PostScript and HTML output. In
text output they are transliterated with -mtty-char.

"for the NetBSD" notices that had a lot of entries out of order. Drop
final dots that are not in any of the required notices to reduce diff
with the script output.
 1.115 03-Dec-2019  uwe Move entries with short first line that ends with "by" to their proper
places in the sorting order.
 1.114 02-Dec-2019  uwe Restore entries for "K. Kobayashi" and "K. Kobayashi and H. Shimokawa".
The script missed them as it was confused by the slighly non-standard
license wording. My apologies.

my apologies.
 1.112 02-Dec-2019  uwe Drop the entry for "University of California, Berkeley and its
contributors, as well as the Trustees of Columbia University" that was
required by the ad clause in external/bsd/am-utils/dist/COPYING.
The ad clause was dropped in the versions we have since netbsd-8.
 1.111 02-Dec-2019  uwe Drop the entry for Yasushi Yamasaki. Nothing in the tree requires it.
 1.110 02-Dec-2019  uwe Move the entry for Kyma Systems to its proper place in the sorting order.

am-utils that was never installed and is no longer there since netbsd-8.
 1.108 02-Dec-2019  uwe Drop the entry for Thomas Gerner.

thomas@ dropped clauses 3 and 4 from his license back in 2009 and the
entry was dropped from here, but a copy was forgotten in the atari
port-specific legal file and merged back here in 2015.

order after fixing multiple spaces.

Remove reference to a 14 year old IP address for ftp.NetBSD.org.
This is not a joke.
--
mention etcupdate and reorder a bit
--
first pass de-suckification for 2015. modernize content a bit, fix dirty
rotten lies, improve wording, sync legalese with reality, yada yada yada.
--
This product includes software developed by Yasushi Yamasaki.
--
- update upgrade issues:
+ ARM ABI change
+ new users
+ new groups
- add modules set where missing
- formatting improvements
- note that rtsol{,d} will be gone in the future
- fix raw partition info
- update sparc64 hardware support
- remove note about sparc SMP support being broken
- update some size requirements (still lots of ancient bogus RAM
minimums lingering -- HI PORTMASTERS!)
- various other minor content modernization
- whitespace fixes
--
finish removing the set size stuff, which was thrown out four years ago.
--
merge port-specific legal sections into the common file. most of these
entries were already in the common file, and it's a pain to maintain
them separately.
--
don't look for now-gone sparc/legal
--
restore rcsid accidentally deleted in previous
--
bah. this time without a typo.

Update this script so it works correctly with the current format of
http://www.netbsd.org/People/port-maintainers.html .

Also, clarify some comments, escape a backlash so that the correct
macro for � is generated, and make sure it's substituted everywhere
in the name.

This script is still not perfect - it will produce incorrect output
the first time that the second portmaster has a hyperlink associated
with his name. For now, though, it generates correct output for
what we've got.

distrib/notes/common/list-portmasters.pl: file removal
Remove list-portmasters.pl script.
We dropped that list from "main" some time ago.
Quote long .Ss2 title to avoid troff's limitation.
Troff is limited to 9 macro parameters and this title is 10 words, so
we lose the last word here when we pass arguments around. We have
more titles like that but for now I wanted to commit only one just to
flag the problem.
More cleanup:
- simplify TOC handling and remove arg limit (from uwe)
- use Lk with explicit anchor text in some places
- do not allow official release builds when we can not derive the
proper date from the buildid
Add "Oxford comma"
Improve heading a bit. While here, use quotes to group some of the
words to avoid the 9-arg limitation of .Ss

bah. this time without a typo.
 1.55 05-Feb-2024  andvar s/dependancies/dependencies/ and s/independantly/independently/ in comments and
distrib notes.
 1.54 30-Nov-2019  uwe Improve table of contents.

For .txt and .more drop meaningless page numbers, those formats are
not paginated (with all due respect to line printers, 80s are over).

For .ps use actual formatting with proportional font and properly
aligned page numbers. Thanks to kre@ for his help with some of the
darker corners of troff (with all due respect to my 80s self, he/I
should have paid more attention).
 1.53 29-Nov-2019  uwe Oops, fix typo in .el in previous.
 1.52 29-Nov-2019  uwe Provide separate .Tc and .Ti definitions for HTML and non-HTML.

Change HTML definition of .Tc to enclose TOC into simple .nf/.fi that
also give us <pre> in the output.

This frees our hands to redefine non-HTML case to use better
formatting (work in progress).
 1.51 28-Nov-2019  uwe Don't emit page numbers in TOC for HTML, they are meaningless.
 1.50 28-Nov-2019  uwe Fix typo in register name in previous.
 1.49 28-Nov-2019  uwe Use .open/.write instead of .tm to emit TOC.
 1.48 27-Nov-2019  uwe Don't repeat the TOC file name, define a string.
 1.47 27-Nov-2019  uwe Don't open-code .tm calls to emit TOC entries.

Hide it in an .mktoc macro so that we can switch the way we generate
TOC more easily.
 1.46 27-Nov-2019  uwe Add missing backslash at the start of conditional input.

That avoids an empty line in the input (which didn't look empty, but
for troff it really was) that causes a break.

I don't remember enough linear algebra to understand what happened,
but that also fixes off by one in some page numbers in the TOC.
 1.45 27-Nov-2019  uwe Make .Te and .To also emit .Ti with quoted arguments.

I missed them b/c I tested on sparc notes and sparc/install is stuck
in the 90s and doesn't include common/sysinst. Now that all emitted
.Ti have properly quoted arguments we can revert TOCPROC to simple
grep.

While here convert .Te and .To to also use $* so we we can also drop
quoting from their calls in common/sysinst now. Don't actually drop
those quotes yet though, as we probably can further simplify the call
sites by emitting the headings automatically instead of duplicating
them.
 1.44 27-Nov-2019  martin More cleanup:
- simplify TOC handling and remove arg limit (from uwe)
- use Lk with explicit anchor text in some places
- do not allow official release builds when we can not derive the
proper date from the buildid

* Device support is not yet complete.

With help from abs.
 1.28 21-Aug-2004  hubertf update copyright year, and some english nits
 1.27 13-May-2004  cl Add NetBSD/xen documentation.
 1.26 24-Feb-2004  wiz branches: 1.26.2;
becuase -> because. From Peter Postma.
 1.25 10-Oct-2003  mbw add hp700 tags and text
 1.24 09-Dec-2002  scw The walnut port has been subsumed by the new evbppc port.

XXX: There is some work to do here to allow for different
installation notes for different eval boards...
 1.23 22-Jul-2002  lukem - provide .showsize [<G> <U>] to display set size info.
if <G> and <U> aren't provided, use values from last .setsize <G> <U>
reset sizes upon display
- convert to .showsize as appropriate
- fix .el ... .ie
- fix up a bunch of set sizes
- use '-unknown-', '-unset-', and '-unknown-machine-arch-' to flag
unknown set size info (instead of "???")
- consistently use \n[MACHINE] instead of r_MACHINE
- ensure that all MACHINE_ARCH registers are at least defined to 0
- don't bother setting register _\*M
 1.22 08-Jul-2002  lukem define new macro - ".setsize x y" - to print "x MB gzipped, y MB compressed"
and update various size displays appropriately (based in information
obtained from latest autobuild).

XXX: alpha info is now missing, as well as a bunch of x11 sets for
various platforms.
 1.21 29-Jun-2002  lukem update copyright date
 1.20 27-Jun-2002  lukem - sync up MACHINE and MACHINE_ARCH register setting
- clean up whitespace
 1.19 12-May-2002  kleink branches: 1.19.2;
Catch up with recent $MACHINE developments.
 1.18 14-Apr-2002  bjh21 Purge mentions of NetBSD/arm32.
 1.17 29-Mar-2002  bjh21 Add entries for arm and arm32 in the MACHINE -> MACHINE_ARCH map.
 1.16 24-Mar-2002  bjh21 Rename arm26 -> acorn26.
 1.15 03-Dec-2001  jhawk Don't use CURDIR-relative .so for reading the toc, as it breaks
with objdirs.
 1.14 26-Nov-2001  jhawk Add .Te and .To macros for explicit additions to the table of contents.
.Te adds an entry at a specified depth and also outputs the entry name
in the output stream, .To "only" adds the entry. .To is necessaary where
markup issues prevent the use of .Te.
 1.13 26-Nov-2001  jhawk Remove TOC entry for Sh; there are only 3 of them and they're
all on page one and they add needless clutter. Additionally
doc2html doesn't output a tag for them, so we cannot link to them.
Lower indent level for Ss and Ss2
Add special HTML support: emit an HREF on each TOC line. There's some
nasty kludging with extending the dot-leader tab stop by the width
of the href, but that's life in mdoc2html.

TOCs need to be regenerated, but I'm not going to bother for a while.
 1.12 26-Nov-2001  jhawk Add a table of contents (TOC) to the release notes.
This makes it _much_ more user-friendly, as it allows users
to skip to the parts they want easily.
At present, the TOCs are generated files, and can be regenerated
with "make tocs" (probably has to be run twice to account for
the size of the table itself).
TOCs are named INSTALL.{PostScript,ASCII,HTML,more}.toc instead of
INSTALL.{ps,txt,html,more}.toc because that's what \*[format]
expands to.
 1.11 24-Jul-2001  nra Minor spelling fixes.
auxilliary -> auxiliary
concatinate -> concatenate
 1.10 11-Apr-2001  jhawk Why I got nothing done this weekend: Add .Bc/.Ec macros for
columnarized unfilled displays. Not perfect for every scenario,
but work fine for the intended application (common/donations).
 1.9 29-Oct-2000  lukem - add .Key; format a keycap (Literal text, one point size smaller)
- add .Ul; .Ux + '-like' (aka `UNIX-like')
- remove .D2; nothing used it
- add caveat to .(disp
 1.8 11-Oct-2000  tsutsui Fix typo. (s/cobolt/cobalt/)
Pointed out by SUNAGAWA Keiki <kei_sun@ba2.so-net.ne.jp>.
 1.7 10-Oct-2000  lukem - move arch setting logic from main -> macros, and change as follows:
- define string `A' to contain the arch name (defaults to the port
name)
- define registers \*A and _\*A if
- deprecate _FOR_RELEASE, and just use FOR_RELEASE
 1.6 10-Oct-2000  lukem - modify .(tag to be more generic. now takes width as first argument,
and doesn't explicitly provide a .It
- add .(bullet & .bullet), which provide bulleted/hyphenated lists.
(alternates between -bullet & -hyphen at each alternate depth).
.(bullet does .It as well.
- add .(enum & .enum); enumerated list. the former does .It as well
- add .(item & .item); enumerated list. the former does .It as well
- add .Nx*M, which generates `NetBSD/machine', except that `NetBSD'
is done using .Nx so gets the appropriate markup from that
- remove .(note and .note), leaving .(Note and .Note)
- document \*M, \*V, \*[.CURDIR]
 1.5 05-Oct-2000  lukem - remove Bdlit macro; .(disp already exists
- update copyright date
 1.4 04-May-1999  simonb branches: 1.4.8;
Add a html <name> to second-level subsection macro.
 1.3 23-Apr-1999  ross Fix header inversion caused by untracked macro package change.
 1.2 25-Mar-1999  ross branches: 1.2.2;
Stomp on those blank-line-inserting .ne requests, like Charles did
for -mdoc.
 1.1 13-Jan-1999  ross Give the common install notes components their own subdirectory.
Also, alpha and i386 now use a single merged common/sysinst,
and arm32 and sparc have a single merged common/xfer.

distrib/notes/common/list-portmasters.pl: file removal
Remove list-portmasters.pl script.
We dropped that list from "main" some time ago.
Quote long .Ss2 title to avoid troff's limitation.
Troff is limited to 9 macro parameters and this title is 10 words, so
we lose the last word here when we pass arguments around. We have
more titles like that but for now I wanted to commit only one just to
flag the problem.
More cleanup:
- simplify TOC handling and remove arg limit (from uwe)
- use Lk with explicit anchor text in some places
- do not allow official release builds when we can not derive the
proper date from the buildid
Add "Oxford comma"
Improve heading a bit. While here, use quotes to group some of the
words to avoid the 9-arg limitation of .Ss
 1.43.4.1 08-Apr-2020  martin Merge changes from current as of 20200406
 1.578 14-Jun-2025  gson The default kernel on macppc installation media is now named netbsd,
not netbsd.macppc.
 1.577 30-Mar-2025  rillig distrib/notes: remove space between "NetBSD -current"
 1.576 06-Jun-2024  snj branches: 1.576.2;
In the Release Contents section describing the source/sets/ directory,
remove a reference to pkgsrc sources, which were removed from NetBSD
releases in 2002 with NetBSD-1.6. Spotted by Mouse in PR install/58067.

Fetching and unpacking pkgsrc manually is covered elsewhere in INSTALL,
so nothing lost here.
 1.575 25-Mar-2024  uwe distrib/notes: add back the sentence final dot after .Lk

It was omitted in previous b/c of a bug in .Lk that was fixed
in PR bin/58074
 1.574 24-Mar-2024  martin Use single-arg "Lk" macro for a link so we can get reasonable results
both in .more and .html output (still a bit odd, but better than before IMHO).
 1.573 24-Mar-2024  martin Various style fixes (and some of VAX related errors and copy&pastos),

Add notes about FFS and extended attributes.
 1.569 01-Apr-2022  andvar Remove floppy installation instructions from sparc documentation.

Floppy generation was disabled before NetBSD 6.0 release due to size
constraints and unlikely to be restored soon or at all. PR port-sparc/56776.
ok martin.
 1.568 06-Feb-2022  nia Add pf(4) to the "list of features we plan to remove" (eventually)
list in the installation notes. Ironically, the only other thing here
is groff(1), which is used to generate these installation notes.
 1.567 20-Oct-2021  gutteridge main: add .gz extension to .img references for consistency
 1.566 20-Oct-2021  gutteridge main: add note about amd64 now having a "bios" image, too
 1.565 20-Oct-2021  gutteridge main: simplify conditional markup
 1.564 27-May-2021  martin Consistency and typo/grammar fixes from Michael Siegel in PR 55413,
With minor adjustments.

Remove Arm OABI -> EABI change notice
 1.562 23-Jan-2020  uwe Override HTML <title> to something more informative.
Requested by martin@

 1.560 04-Dec-2019  uwe "Administrivia" is a real word and it was used here on purpose.
 1.559 04-Dec-2019  wiz Fix some typos.
 1.558 04-Dec-2019  martin For HEAD builds, add a small "bleeding edge" warning when we talk about
a rock solid OS.
 1.557 27-Nov-2019  martin More cleanup:
- simplify TOC handling and remove arg limit (from uwe)
- use Lk with explicit anchor text in some places
- do not allow official release builds when we can not derive the
proper date from the buildid
 1.556 25-Nov-2019  pgoyette Improve heading a bit. While here, use quotes to group some of the
words to avoid the 9-arg limitation of .Ss
 1.555 24-Nov-2019  pgoyette Add "Oxford comma"
 1.554 24-Nov-2019  martin Modernize release notes:
- use https where possible
- adapt to cdn/nycdn and our current auto-build conventions
- automate where possible
Many thanks to uwe for lots of *roff help.
 1.553 21-Nov-2019  martin Pass the set suffix (either .tgz or .tar.xz) from the makefile.
Document the rescue set.
 1.552 21-Nov-2019  martin Add missing .bullet) and replace some versions (more todo later)
 1.551 31-May-2019  maya branches: 1.551.2;
Omit mention of the boot prompt having an ACPI off option, as it was removed
 1.550 13-Nov-2018  scole Mention macppc 601 needs to use separate boot floppies, kernels, and specific kernel on CD
 1.549 07-Aug-2018  martin Remove leftovers from the separate xen port (which is now part of i386
and amd64)

I know it isn't a good thing to have many copy-and-pasted contents
(set file descriptions etc) in all MD files, but it's much more annoying
to maintain a bunch of .if \n [${MACHINE}] conditionals for all ports
and maintainers rarely notice that they also have to prepare or update
MD contents in MI content file with messy ifdefs.

XXX: of course common text should be shared by mdoc macro etc.
but I doubt playing mdoc(7) is really worth...

to the release notes. OK by Christos.
 1.336 05-May-2007  pavel Clear the old list of changes (between NetBSD 2.0 and 3.0 releases) as a

 1.321 04-Jan-2007  wiz From dieter roelants in PR 35169:
- While reading install/12957 it was suggested
(http://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-i386/2006/11/27/0000.html)
that all notes, marked with '[PCMCIA]' should go and be
replaced with a more generic explanation about removable
devices.
- I noticed the HTML output concatenates 'NetBSD' and '4.0',
which is ugly.
- The IP addresses for ftp.NetBSD.org are wrong.

* where is xsrc.tar.gz?

 1.145 26-Nov-2001  jhawk Add a table of contents (TOC) to the release notes.
This makes it _much_ more user-friendly, as it allows users
to skip to the parts they want easily.
At present, the TOCs are generated files, and can be regenerated
with "make tocs" (probably has to be run twice to account for
the size of the table itself).
TOCs are named INSTALL.{PostScript,ASCII,HTML,more}.toc instead of
INSTALL.{ps,txt,html,more}.toc because that's what \*[format]
expands to.

fine for it and the iMac (Bondi)

macppc/prep:
make the whole BootROM/Open Firmware distinction clearer
describe that some models have to remove internal modem or set
input/output devices to ttyb since int modem usurps ttya.

macppc/whatis:
mention important changes, such as ELF, binary compatability, newly
supported models that don't require kernel patches, and that the install
procedure described now works for all models (i.e. Open Firmware 3
machines with only one hard drive).

Remove reference to a 14 year old IP address for ftp.NetBSD.org.
This is not a joke.
--
mention etcupdate and reorder a bit
--
first pass de-suckification for 2015. modernize content a bit, fix dirty
rotten lies, improve wording, sync legalese with reality, yada yada yada.
--
This product includes software developed by Yasushi Yamasaki.
--
- update upgrade issues:
+ ARM ABI change
+ new users
+ new groups
- add modules set where missing
- formatting improvements
- note that rtsol{,d} will be gone in the future
- fix raw partition info
- update sparc64 hardware support
- remove note about sparc SMP support being broken
- update some size requirements (still lots of ancient bogus RAM
minimums lingering -- HI PORTMASTERS!)
- various other minor content modernization
- whitespace fixes
--
finish removing the set size stuff, which was thrown out four years ago.
--
merge port-specific legal sections into the common file. most of these
entries were already in the common file, and it's a pain to maintain
them separately.
--
don't look for now-gone sparc/legal
--
restore rcsid accidentally deleted in previous
--
bah. this time without a typo.

distrib/notes/common/main: revision 1.562
share/tmac/doc2html: revision 1.71

Use .Os NetBSD/\*M \*V to get more informative footer.

Provide ability to override <title>

If \*[title-section] is non-empty, use it to override the title
instead of appending it. Nothing in the tree uses title-section
currently, so it shouldn't affect any existing document.

This override will be used by the installation notes where the default
title is less than helpful.

Override HTML <title> to something more informative.
Requested by martin@

Use -mdoc2html to generate HTML TOC to avoids warnings.

distrib/notes/common/list-portmasters.pl: file removal
Remove list-portmasters.pl script.
We dropped that list from "main" some time ago.
Quote long .Ss2 title to avoid troff's limitation.
Troff is limited to 9 macro parameters and this title is 10 words, so
we lose the last word here when we pass arguments around. We have
more titles like that but for now I wanted to commit only one just to
flag the problem.
More cleanup:
- simplify TOC handling and remove arg limit (from uwe)
- use Lk with explicit anchor text in some places
- do not allow official release builds when we can not derive the
proper date from the buildid
Add "Oxford comma"
Improve heading a bit. While here, use quotes to group some of the
words to avoid the 9-arg limitation of .Ss

distrib/notes/common/netboot: revision 1.39

For netboot via DHCP, "next-server" in dhcpd.conf(5) is mandatory.
Pointed out by Anders Gustafsson on port-hp300@.

https://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-hp300/2021/04/21/msg000201.html

Should be pulled up to netbsd-8 and netbsd-9.

XXX: kernel should use the dhcpd/bootp server address for nfsroot
if the specified next-server (siaddr) is 0.0.0.0?

distrib/notes/common/list-portmasters.pl: file removal
Remove list-portmasters.pl script.
We dropped that list from "main" some time ago.
Quote long .Ss2 title to avoid troff's limitation.
Troff is limited to 9 macro parameters and this title is 10 words, so
we lose the last word here when we pass arguments around. We have
more titles like that but for now I wanted to commit only one just to
flag the problem.
More cleanup:
- simplify TOC handling and remove arg limit (from uwe)
- use Lk with explicit anchor text in some places
- do not allow official release builds when we can not derive the
proper date from the buildid
Add "Oxford comma"
Improve heading a bit. While here, use quotes to group some of the
words to avoid the 9-arg limitation of .Ss

Finally we could close another ancient PR port-arc/11443.

After several years, we got the native bootloader and then had
sysinst which would do apprpriate partitioning for the bootloader,
so I've noted the last difficult part, how to specify boot commands
on the ARC BIOS.

I still wonder how many possible users of NetBSD/arc are there
who will need this topic though... ;-p

distrib/notes/common/list-portmasters.pl: file removal
Remove list-portmasters.pl script.
We dropped that list from "main" some time ago.
Quote long .Ss2 title to avoid troff's limitation.
Troff is limited to 9 macro parameters and this title is 10 words, so
we lose the last word here when we pass arguments around. We have
more titles like that but for now I wanted to commit only one just to
flag the problem.
More cleanup:
- simplify TOC handling and remove arg limit (from uwe)
- use Lk with explicit anchor text in some places
- do not allow official release builds when we can not derive the
proper date from the buildid
Add "Oxford comma"
Improve heading a bit. While here, use quotes to group some of the
words to avoid the 9-arg limitation of .Ss

After several years, we got the native bootloader and then had
sysinst which would do apprpriate partitioning for the bootloader,

that all notes, marked with '[PCMCIA]' should go and be
replaced with a more generic explanation about removable

Remove reference to a 14 year old IP address for ftp.NetBSD.org.
This is not a joke.
--
mention etcupdate and reorder a bit
--
first pass de-suckification for 2015. modernize content a bit, fix dirty
rotten lies, improve wording, sync legalese with reality, yada yada yada.
--
This product includes software developed by Yasushi Yamasaki.
--
- update upgrade issues:
+ ARM ABI change
+ new users
+ new groups
- add modules set where missing
- formatting improvements
- note that rtsol{,d} will be gone in the future
- fix raw partition info
- update sparc64 hardware support
- remove note about sparc SMP support being broken
- update some size requirements (still lots of ancient bogus RAM
minimums lingering -- HI PORTMASTERS!)
- various other minor content modernization
- whitespace fixes
--
finish removing the set size stuff, which was thrown out four years ago.
--
merge port-specific legal sections into the common file. most of these
entries were already in the common file, and it's a pain to maintain
them separately.
--
don't look for now-gone sparc/legal
--
restore rcsid accidentally deleted in previous
--
bah. this time without a typo.

distrib/notes/common/list-portmasters.pl: file removal
Remove list-portmasters.pl script.
We dropped that list from "main" some time ago.
Quote long .Ss2 title to avoid troff's limitation.
Troff is limited to 9 macro parameters and this title is 10 words, so
we lose the last word here when we pass arguments around. We have
more titles like that but for now I wanted to commit only one just to
flag the problem.
More cleanup:
- simplify TOC handling and remove arg limit (from uwe)
- use Lk with explicit anchor text in some places
- do not allow official release builds when we can not derive the
proper date from the buildid
Add "Oxford comma"
Improve heading a bit. While here, use quotes to group some of the
words to avoid the 9-arg limitation of .Ss

Various style fixes (and some of VAX related errors and copy&pastos),

Use single-arg "Lk" macro for a link so we can get reasonable results

Remove reference to a 14 year old IP address for ftp.NetBSD.org.
This is not a joke.
--
mention etcupdate and reorder a bit
--
first pass de-suckification for 2015. modernize content a bit, fix dirty
rotten lies, improve wording, sync legalese with reality, yada yada yada.
--
This product includes software developed by Yasushi Yamasaki.
--
- update upgrade issues:
+ ARM ABI change
+ new users
+ new groups
- add modules set where missing
- formatting improvements
- note that rtsol{,d} will be gone in the future
- fix raw partition info
- update sparc64 hardware support
- remove note about sparc SMP support being broken
- update some size requirements (still lots of ancient bogus RAM
minimums lingering -- HI PORTMASTERS!)
- various other minor content modernization
- whitespace fixes
--
finish removing the set size stuff, which was thrown out four years ago.
--
merge port-specific legal sections into the common file. most of these
entries were already in the common file, and it's a pain to maintain
them separately.
--
don't look for now-gone sparc/legal
--
restore rcsid accidentally deleted in previous

bah. this time without a typo.

spz and riz request that we don't list ftp.NetBSD.org's IP addresses.
 1.72 17-Dec-2011  tsutsui Update ftp.NetBSD.org IPv4/IPv6 addresses.
(should be pulled up to all release branches?)
 1.71 27-May-2011  tsutsui branches: 1.71.4;
- move "MD instructions on setting up boot media"
from common/xfer with messy mdoc .if conditionals
into MD xfer files so that developers can see
what contents are missing or obsolete and should be
written or updated
- remove some useless MD description for maintainability

XXX: still a bunch of unmaintained .if \n [${MACHINE}] in common files
 1.70 27-May-2011  tsutsui Tweak some descriptions about Rawrite32 tool on Windows.
XXX: we should rather mention how to write ISO images..
 1.69 25-Apr-2011  wiz Improve wording.
 1.68 03-May-2010  tsutsui Update IP addresses (both IPv4 and IPv6) of current ftp.NetBSD.org.

XXX: is it still worth to note those numbers in INSTALL docs nowadays?
 1.67 03-May-2010  tsutsui Remove "MS-DOS floppy" from "Getting the NetBSD System on to Useful Media"
section. The media is actually being dead especially for large binary sets.

XXX: too much more "floppy" words in INSTALL docs
 1.66 25-Apr-2009  snj Final round of INSTALL cleanups for 5.0.
 1.65 25-Apr-2009  snj Yet another round of INSTALL fixes.
 1.64 25-Apr-2009  snj Another round of INSTALL improvements big and small.
 1.63 13-Sep-2008  tsutsui branches: 1.63.2; 1.63.4;
First cut at INSTALL notes for NetBSD/arc.
Finally we could close another ancient PR port-arc/11443.

After several years, we got the native bootloader and then had
sysinst which would do apprpriate partitioning for the bootloader,
so I've noted the last difficult part, how to specify boot commands
on the ARC BIOS.

I still wonder how many possible users of NetBSD/arc are there
who will need this topic though... ;-p
 1.62 30-Apr-2008  martin branches: 1.62.2;
Convert TNF licenses to new 2 clause variant

 1.57 28-Sep-2007  tsutsui Remove ugly port ifdefs around install media of MS-DOS floppy and Tape.
I don't think users will complain that their machine doesn't have it,
and it's worthless to maintain which ports support these devices or not.
 1.56 28-Sep-2007  tsutsui First cut at NetBSD/ews4800mips install notes. Not well confirmed.
(I guess very few people will actually require it...)
 1.55 04-Jan-2007  wiz branches: 1.55.4;
From dieter roelants in PR 35169:
- While reading install/12957 it was suggested
(http://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-i386/2006/11/27/0000.html)
that all notes, marked with '[PCMCIA]' should go and be
replaced with a more generic explanation about removable
devices.
- I noticed the HTML output concatenates 'NetBSD' and '4.0',
which is ugly.
- The IP addresses for ftp.NetBSD.org are wrong.
 1.54 25-Dec-2006  wiz Spell "separate" correctly. From Zafer Aydogan.
 1.53 25-Nov-2006  martin branches: 1.53.2; 1.53.4;
i386 now has 3 floppies - noted by Alan Horn

sparc64 systems.

netbsd-INSTALL.gz on the x68k's native OS.)
 1.45 21-Aug-2004  hubertf Better english (from soren), and mention DVD as an alternative to CD.
 1.44 21-Aug-2004  jdolecek apparently boot-ps2 overflowed, so refer to boot-ps2-1.fs and boot-ps2-2.fs here
 1.43 20-Aug-2004  hubertf Remove documentation for updating - there's an own section for this (!?!)
 1.42 20-Aug-2004  hubertf Update for 2.0:

* VAX can install from CD-ROM (mmm, simh-vax :)
* Add note to unzip inst.fs.gz file before using, on x68k

* Add a few likely places where the distribution is on CD-ROMs
* Mention that DHCP is an alternative to remembering IP-numbers
* Update list of available IDE drives to four (wd[0-3]) and
five SCSI disks (sd[0-4]).
XXX please review for hp300, pmax, sgimips, sparc, sparc64 and
maybe remove the ".if!" above that paragraph
* Mention etcupdate for a way to update the etc set

Todo: XXX
* Provide split sets - it's documented and supported by sysinst
(or say how to create them?)
* Fix mentions of "set_name.xx" for the AmigaDOS installation
* x68k: fix to tell where to get "netbsd" from (how to run gzip.x on
netbsd-INSTALL.gz on the x86k's native OS?)
* Someone please either re-summon PS/2 "boot-ps2.fs" or remove the note on it
* Tape install:
.Dl # Ic "cd \*M/binary"
.Dl # Ic "tar -cf" Ar tape_device Ic "misc etc kern"
That doesn't work with today's set format (binary/sets/misc.tgz ...)

 1.18 13-May-2001  mbw general clean-up. rearrange a few things to make more sense and change
order of recommendations for installation methods.

macppc/hardware:
update list of unsupported models

macppc/prep:
mention that ofwboot.elf is obsoleted, and all users should be using
ofwboot.xcf instead
link to partitioning HOW-TO on website
added some info on the "official" NetBSD/macppc-1.5.1 CD-R image
added some info on cdrecord
added note that netboot must be from on-board ethernet

macppc/install:
added a few more details to some of the open firmware error messages
reordered error messages to be in order user might encounter them
removed "pciide0:0:0: lost interrupt" since this is fixed in 1.5.1
added "TFTP timeout" and explanation to list of possible problems
point to macppc X11R6 HOW-TO

common/postinstall:
point to macppc X11R6 HOW-TO

common/xfer:
recommend waiting until later to create media for distribution sets

common/sysinst:
control-C to stop sysint, but added that you can re-run it from the
command prompt, no need to reboot.
added an example of what the sysinst main menu looks like
 1.17 16-Apr-2001  mbw By popular demand.

I've organized the topics by Open Firmware version, since many users found
the old scheme way too confusing (clause out Open Firmware version-specific
content).

It's still really confusing to read (particularly the .txt version which
doesn't adequately distinguish headings from the body)

Also added a bit more info on partitioning vs. OF version.

Remove reference to a 14 year old IP address for ftp.NetBSD.org.
This is not a joke.
--
mention etcupdate and reorder a bit
--
first pass de-suckification for 2015. modernize content a bit, fix dirty
rotten lies, improve wording, sync legalese with reality, yada yada yada.
--
This product includes software developed by Yasushi Yamasaki.
--
- update upgrade issues:
+ ARM ABI change
+ new users
+ new groups
- add modules set where missing
- formatting improvements
- note that rtsol{,d} will be gone in the future
- fix raw partition info
- update sparc64 hardware support
- remove note about sparc SMP support being broken
- update some size requirements (still lots of ancient bogus RAM
minimums lingering -- HI PORTMASTERS!)
- various other minor content modernization
- whitespace fixes
--
finish removing the set size stuff, which was thrown out four years ago.
--
merge port-specific legal sections into the common file. most of these
entries were already in the common file, and it's a pain to maintain
them separately.
--
don't look for now-gone sparc/legal
--
restore rcsid accidentally deleted in previous
--
bah. this time without a typo.
