      3  1.6.2.1  mellon The Amiga-specific portion of the NetBSD _VER release is found in the
      4  1.6.2.1  mellon "amiga" subdirectory of the distribution.  That subdirectory is laid
      5      1.1  chopps out as follows:

     30  1.6.2.1  mellon The Amiga now uses a single miniroot filesystem for both an initial
     31  1.6.2.1  mellon installation and for an upgrade.  A gzipped version is available, for easier
     32      1.3  chopps downloading.  (The gzipped version have the ".gz" extension added to
     33      1.3  chopps their names.)
     34      1.1  chopps 
     35  1.6.2.1  mellon Miniroot file system:
     36      1.1  chopps 
     37  1.6.2.2   veego 	This file contains a BSD root file system setup to help you
     38  1.6.2.2   veego 	install the rest of NetBSD or to upgrade a previous version of
     39  1.6.2.2   veego 	NetBSD.  This includes formatting and mounting your root and
     40  1.6.2.2   veego 	/usr partitions and getting ready to extract (and possibly first
     41  1.6.2.2   veego 	fetching) the distribution sets.  There is enough on this file
     42  1.6.2.2   veego 	system to allow you to make a SLIP or PPP connection, configure
     43  1.6.2.2   veego 	an Ethernet, mount an NFS file system or ftp.  You can also load
     44  1.6.2.2   veego 	distribution sets from a SCSI tape or from one of your existing
     45  1.6.2.2   veego 	AmigaDOS partitions.
     46      1.3  chopps 
     47  1.6.2.2   veego 	This file is named "miniroot.fs".
     48      1.1  chopps 
     49      1.5  chopps The NetBSD/Amiga binary distribution sets contain the binaries which
     50  1.6.2.3   perry comprise the NetBSD _VER release for the Amiga.  There are seven standard
     51  1.6.2.3   perry binary distribution sets, 5 X11 distribution sets, and the "security"
     52  1.6.2.3   perry distribution set.  The standard and X11 binary distribution sets can be
     53  1.6.2.3   perry found in the "amiga/binary/sets" subdirectory of the NetBSD _VER
     54  1.6.2.3   perry distribution tree, and are as follows:
     55      1.1  chopps 
     56  1.6.2.2   veego 	base	The NetBSD/Amiga _VER base binary distribution.  You
     57      1.1  chopps 		MUST install this distribution set.  It contains the
     58      1.1  chopps 		base NetBSD utilities that are necessary for the
     59      1.1  chopps 		system to run and be minimally functional.  It
     60      1.1  chopps 		includes shared library support, and excludes
     61      1.1  chopps 		everything described below.
     62  1.6.2.2   veego 		[ 8.7M gzipped, 25.2M uncompressed ]
     63      1.1  chopps 
     64  1.6.2.2   veego 	comp	The NetBSD/Amiga Compiler tools.  All of the tools
     65  1.6.2.4  mellon 		relating to C, C++, Objective C, and FORTRAN (yes,
     66  1.6.2.4  mellon 		there are two, although NO FORTRAN compiler!).
     67      1.1  chopps 		This set includes the system include files
     68      1.1  chopps 		(/usr/include), the linker, the compiler tool chain,
     69      1.1  chopps 		and the various system libraries (except the shared
     70      1.1  chopps 		libraries, which are included as part of the base
     71      1.1  chopps 		set).  This set also includes the manual pages for all
     72      1.1  chopps 		of the utilities it contains, as well as the system
     73      1.1  chopps 		call and library manual pages.

     75      1.1  chopps 
     76  1.6.2.2   veego 	etc	This distribution set contains the system
     77      1.1  chopps 		configuration files that reside in /etc and in several
     78      1.1  chopps 		other places.  This set MUST be installed if you are
     79      1.1  chopps 		installing the system from scratch, but should NOT be
     80      1.1  chopps 		used if you are upgrading.  (If you are upgrading,
     81      1.1  chopps 		it's recommended that you get a copy of this set and
     82      1.1  chopps 		CAREFULLY upgrade your configuration files by hand.)

     88  1.6.2.2   veego 	man	This set includes all of the manual pages for the
     89      1.1  chopps 		binaries and other software contained in the base set.
     90      1.1  chopps 		Note that it does not include any of the manual pages
     91      1.1  chopps 		that are included in the other sets.

     95      1.1  chopps 		rather large), the typesettable document set, and
     96      1.1  chopps 		man pages for other architectures which happen to be
     97      1.1  chopps 		installed from the source tree by default.

    122  1.6.2.3   perry 
    123  1.6.2.3   perry The Amiga security distribution set is named "secr" and can be found in
    124  1.6.2.3   perry the "amiga/binary/security" subdirectory of the NetBSD _VER
    125  1.6.2.3   perry distribution tree.  It contains security related binaries which depend
    126  1.6.2.3   perry on cryptographic source code. You do not need this distribution set to
    127  1.6.2.3   perry use encrypted passwords in your password file; the "base" distribution
    128  1.6.2.3   perry includes a crypt library which can perform only the decryption
    129  1.6.2.3   perry function.  The security distribution includes a version of the
    130  1.6.2.3   perry Kerberos IV network security system, and a Kerberized version of the
    131  1.6.2.3   perry "telnet" program.  The "secr" distribution set can be found only on
    132  1.6.2.3   perry those sites which carry the complete NetBSD distribution and which can
    133  1.6.2.3   perry legally obtain it.  (Remember, because of United States law, it may
    134  1.6.2.3   perry not be legal to distribute this set to locations outside of the United
    135  1.6.2.3   perry States and Canada.)

    137  1.6.2.3   perry 
    138  1.6.2.3   perry The Amiga binary distribution sets are distributed as gzipped tar files
    139  1.6.2.3   perry named with the extension ".tgz", e.g. "base.tgz". They are also
    140  1.6.2.3   perry available in split form -- catted together, the members of a split set
    141      1.5  chopps form a gzipped tar file.  Each Amiga binary distribution set also has
    142  1.6.2.3   perry its own checksum files, just as the source distribution sets do.
    143      1.1  chopps 
    144      1.1  chopps The instructions given for extracting the source sets work equally
    145      1.1  chopps well for the binary sets, but it is worth noting that if you use that
    146      1.1  chopps method, the files are extracted "below" the current directory.  That
    147      1.1  chopps is, if you want to extract the binaries "into" your system, i.e.
    148  1.6.2.3   perry replace the system binaries with them, you have to run the "tar xfp"
    149      1.1  chopps from /.  Also note that if you upgrade or install this way, those
    150  1.6.2.3   perry programs that you are using at the time will NOT be replaced unless
    151  1.6.2.3   perry you run "tar" with the "--unlink" option.  If you follow the normal
    152  1.6.2.3   perry installation or upgrade procedures, this will be taken care of for
    153  1.6.2.3   perry you.
