Move common/contents file into MD dirs again.
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...
|

lukem | migrate */contents -> common/contents, as there was *way* too much
unnecessary duplication. wrap the MD stuff in .if r_foo \{\ ... .\}

ross | You are leaving a maze of twisty little conditionals.
There are macs here.
|
| 1.3 | 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
|

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.

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.

setting up the console and how to work around the problem. This
is an initial stab at solving PR/35348 for NetBSD 6.0. After 6.0

Substantial overhaul which splits OF versions up for clarity. Much of
what was in prep is now in prep.OPENFIRMWARE.
prep now calls prep.OPENFIRMWARE twice. The first time, it generates
documentation specific to Open Firmware 3 systems. The second pass, it
outputs OF 1.x and 2.x specific stuff. This makes it easier to follow
directions for a particular class of machines.

common/postinstall:
macppc uses vt100 for console, not vt220
describe how to mount root filesystem to edit /etc/rc.conf
|
| 1.13 | 13-May-2001 |
mbw | general clean-up. rearrange a few things to make more sense and change
order of recommendations for installation methods.

details more clear
|
| 1.11 | 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.

dhcp server on a 1.5 box.
|

specifically described by this document)
|
| 1.6 | 01-Nov-2000 |
mbw | Tweaks and re-detailing.
hardware: add Gee Three's stealth serial port and scca as console info
prep: chaos/control problems with system disk as well as bootvars
clean up the various exceptions between different versions of OF
removed .Key tags, as they aren't recognized by groff
added examples of how to create install media

lukem | more work:
- use .Tn, .Bx, .Ul, .Key, .Sq, .Dq, .Li, .Dl, (etc) ... as appropriate
- be more consistent between various ports' install notes
- other cleanups
|
| 1.4 | 27-Oct-2000 |
mbw | Major overhaul.
hardware: updated the list of what works, broken down by OF version
added devices reported as working by port-macppc posters
added list of what devices are supported by which versions of OF
included description of how each OF version boots
described partitioning
prep: describe how to enter OF depending on OF version
also described how to set up some important OF variables
install: give examples of boot commands
list of common error messages and what they mean
|
| 1.3 | 10-Oct-2000 |
lukem | major terraform (this is MUCH more than a rototill :-), including:
- update for 1.5 (still more MD stuff to check)
- use new macros in ../common/macros as appropriate
- introduce some CONSISTENCY between the various ports' install docs
- use various mdoc macros as appropriate, including .Li, .Pa, .Sy, and .Ic.
- migrate more stuff into ../common/*
- whitespace cleanup
- lots of other little things i'm sure...

Substantial overhaul which splits OF versions up for clarity. Much of

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.

NetBSD for the xyz platform" replace n by XXX.

common/main:
quick guide for impatient reword netboot section, also macppc can netboot
macppc/hardware:
mention that some older models not listed might work, but are untested
mention that some iMac (Bondi Blue) and PowerMacintosh G3 (Blue and White)
systems have keyboard problems
mention that ttya is "modem" port, and ttyb is "printer" port
macppc/install:
describe the keyboard workaround for PM G3 (B&W), and that 1.4.3 works
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).
|
| 1.3 | 17-May-2001 |
mbw | macppc/prep:
recommend using official NetBSD CD-R image instead of rolling own CD-R
describe how to boot a kernel from an HFS partition
moved partitioning HDs to before copying files to it.
macppc/whatis:
heh, just noticed that it needed updating from NetBSD 1.4
