you'e -> you've
 1.26  21-May-2001  jhawk The diskimage contains a /netbsd, not a /install.
Terminal type is "rcons" over here, not "pmax."
 1.25  29-Oct-2000  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
 1.24  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...
 1.23  28-Dec-1999  simonb branches: 1.23.4;
Use /usr/mdec/installboot to install new bootblocks.
 1.22  26-Oct-1999  simonb The netboot kernel is called "install.ecoff", not "install".
 1.21  21-Jul-1999  simonb branches: 1.21.2;
Include the root-path in the bootptab and dhcpd.conf examples.
 1.20  25-Jun-1999  simonb The name of the kernel on the diskimage is "netbsd" and not "install".
 1.19  04-May-1999  simonb Big clean up for ramdisk install kernel (don't need diskimages in
swap partitions, etc).
Mention PROM commands here instead of pmax/prep.
Better list of set retrieval methods (based on Alpha page).
Use common/sysinst.
 1.18  13-Jan-1999  ross branches: 1.18.2;
Markup for -mdoc and -mdoc2html.
 1.17  24-Nov-1998  simonb slight cleanup
 1.16  20-Nov-1998  simonb Re-do special note on installing from a NetBSD CD-ROM after actually
doing this for real. (Many thanks to David).
 1.15  17-Nov-1998  simonb Specifically mention that NetBSD/pmax uses rzX devices for CD-ROMs and
not cdX like other NetBSD ports.
 1.14  16-Nov-1998  simonb Mention that it may be necessary to hand-mount a CD on /mnt2 before
starting sysinst.

Partial fix for PR bin/6307 from Terry R. Friedrichsen.

From PR #6307:
Added possibly non-working work around for 1.3.3.

Will do more work on this when I get a CD image of a NetBSD release.
 1.13  16-Nov-1998  simonb Reference the section on dd'ing a disk image into the swap
partition of an Ultrix disk in the "QUICK.INSTALL" notes.

NOTE - this isn't the best solution. The INSTALL notes need
to be totally rewritten, but at least now there's a pointer
to the referred section.

Fixes PR port-pmax/6299 from Terry R. Friedrichsen.
 1.12  16-Nov-1998  simonb Warn that messages about "using ULTRIX label information" may
appear when disklabeling old Ultrix disks.

Fixes PR port-pmax/6300 from Terry Friedrichsen.
 1.11  16-Nov-1998  simonb Mention that Ultrix doesn't have rock ridge extenstions so some paths
on a CD-ROM will be truncated/mungled.

Fixes PR #6296 from Terry R. Friedrichsen
 1.10  16-Nov-1998  simonb Sync with 1.3 branch (don't we usually do this the other way around?!)
