      1 The hp300-specific portion of the NetBSD 1.0 release is found in the
      2 "hp300" subdirectory of the distribution.  That subdirectory is layed
      3 out as follows:
      4 
      5 .../NetBSD-1.0/hp300/
      6 			binary/		hp300 binary distribution sets;
      7 					see below.
      8 
      9 			install/	installation utilities and
     10 					bootstrap root filesystem
     11 					image; see below.
     12 
     13 			security/	hp300 security distribution;
     14 					see below;
     15 
     16 The NetBSD/hp300 binary distribution sets contain the binaries which
     17 comprise the NetBSD 1.0 release for the hp300.  There are seven binary
     18 distribution sets, and the "security" distribution set.  The binary
     19 distribution sets can be found in the "hp300/binary" subdirectory of
     20 the NetBSD 1.0 distribution tree, and are as follows:
     21 
     22 	base10	The NetBSD/hp300 1.0 base binary distribution.  You
     23 		MUST install this distribution set.  It contains the
     24 		base NetBSD utilities that are necessary for the
     25 		system to run and be minimally functional.  It
     26 		includes shared library support, and excludes
     27 		everything described below.
     28 		[ 6.1M gzipped, 16.3M uncompressed ]
     29 
     30 	comp10	The NetBSD/hp300 Compiler tools.  All of the tools
     31 		relating to C, C++, and FORTRAN (yes, there are two!).
     32 		This set includes the system include files
     33 		(/usr/include), the linker, the compiler tool chain,
     34 		and the various system libraries (except the shared
     35 		libraries, which are included as part of the base
     36 		set).  This set also includes the manual pages for all
     37 		of the utilities it contains, as well as the system
     38 		call and library manual pages.
     39 		[ 4.1M gzipped, 12.6M uncompressed ]
     40 
     41 	etc10	This distribution set contains the system
     42 		configuration files that reside in /etc and in several
     43 		other places.  This set MUST be installed if you are
     44 		installing the system from scratch, but should NOT be
     45 		used if you are upgrading.  (If you are upgrading,
     46 		it's recommended that you get a copy of this set and
     47 		CAREFULLY upgrade your configuration files by hand.)
     48 		[ 51K gzipped, 290K uncompressed ]
     49 
     50 	games10	This set includes the games and their manual pages.
     51 		[ 1.1M gzipped, 2.7M uncompressed ]
     52 
     53 	man10	This set includes all of the manual pages for the
     54 		binaries and other software contained in the base set.
     55 		Note that it does not include any of the manual pages
     56 		that are included in the other sets.
     57 		[ 752K gzipped, 2.9M uncompressed ]
     58 
     59 	misc10	This set includes the system dictionaries (which are
     60 		rather large), the typesettable document set, and
     61 		man pages for other architectures which happen to be
     62 		installed from the source tree by default.
     63 		[ 1.6M gzipped, 5.6M uncompressed ]
     64 
     65 	text10	This set includes NetBSD's text processing tools,
     66 		including groff, all related programs, and their
     67 		manual pages.
     68 		[ 782K gzipped, 2.8M uncompressed ]
     69 
     70 The hp300 security distribution set is named "secr10" and can be found
     71 in the "hp300/security" subdirectory of the NetBSD 1.0 distribution
     72 tree.  It contains crypt.c (the source file for the DES encryption
     73 algorithm) and the binaries which depend on it.  It can only be found
     74 on those sites which carry the complete NetBSD distribution and that
     75 can legally obtain it.  (Remember, because of United States law, this
     76 distribution set may not be exported to locations outside of the
     77 United States and Canada.)  [ 119K gzipped, 270K uncompressed ]
     78 
     79 The hp300 binary distribution sets are distributed as gzipped tar files.
     80 Each hp300 binary distribution set also has its own "CKSUMS" file, just
     81 as the source distribution sets do.
     82 
     83 The instructions given for extracting the source sets work equally
     84 well for the binary sets, but it is worth noting that if you use that
     85 method, the files are extracted "below" the current directory.  That
     86 is, if you want to extract the binaries "into" your system, i.e.
     87 replace the system binaries with them, you have to run the "tar xvfp"
     88 from /.  Also note that if you upgrade or install this way, those
     89 programs that you are using at the time will NOT be replaced.  If you
     90 follow the normal installation or upgrade procedures, this will be
     91 taken care of for you.
