1The mac68k-specific portion of the NetBSD _VER release is found in the
2"mac68k" subdirectory of the distribution.  That subdirectory is laid
3out as follows:
4
5.../NetBSD-_VER/mac68k/
6			binary/		mac68k binary distribution sets;
7					see below.
8
9			security/	mac68k security distribution;
10					see below.
11
12			X11/		mac68k X distribution sets;
13					see below.
14
15			utils/		The mac68k installation utilities.
16
17The NetBSD/mac68k binary distribution sets contain the binaries which
18comprise the NetBSD _VER release for the mac68k.  There are eight binary
19distribution sets, the "security" distribution set, and five X distribution
20sets.  The binary distribution sets can be found in the "mac68k/binary"
21subdirectory of the NetBSD _VER distribution tree, and are as follows:
22
23	netbsd13 The NetBSD/mac68k _VER kernel binary.  You MUST
24		install this file.  It is the kernel that you need
25		to boot the system.
26		[ 606K gzipped, 1.32M uncompressed ]
27
28	base13	The NetBSD/mac68k _VER base binary distribution.  You
29		MUST install this distribution set.  It contains the
30		base NetBSD utilities that are necessary for the
31		system to run and be minimally functional.  It
32		includes shared library support, and excludes
33		everything described below.
34		[ 8.6M gzipped, 25.1M uncompressed ]
35
36	comp13	The NetBSD/mac68k Compiler tools; all of the tools
37		relating to C and C++.
38		This set includes the system include files
39		(/usr/include), the linker, the compiler tool chain,
40		and the various system libraries (except the shared
41		libraries, which are included as part of the base
42		set).  This set also includes the manual pages for all
43		of the utilities it contains, as well as the system
44		call and library manual pages.
45		[ 6.2M gzipped, 21.6M uncompressed ]
46
47	etc13	This distribution set contains the system
48		configuration files that reside in /etc and in several
49		other places.  This set MUST be installed if you are
50		installing the system from scratch, but should NOT be
51		used if you are upgrading.  (If you are upgrading,
52		it's recommended that you get a copy of this set and
53		CAREFULLY upgrade your configuration files by hand.)
54		[ 49K gzipped, 288K uncompressed ]
55
56	games13	This set includes the games and their manual pages.
57		[ 2.8M gzipped, 7.2M uncompressed ]
58
59	man13	This set includes all of the manual pages for the
60		binaries and other software contained in the base set.
61		Note that it does not include any of the manual pages
62		that are included in the other sets.
63		[ 2.2M gzipped, 8.8M uncompressed ]
64
65	misc13	This set includes the system dictionaries (which are
66		rather large), the typesettable document set, and
67		man pages for other architectures which happen to be
68		installed from the source tree by default.
69		[ 2.1M gzipped, 7.6M uncompressed ]
70
71	text13	This set includes NetBSD's text processing tools,
72		including groff, all related programs, and their
73		manual pages.
74		[ 1.0M gzipped, 3.7M uncompressed ]
75
76The mac68k security distribution set is named "secr13" and can be found
77in the "mac68k/security" subdirectory of the NetBSD _VER distribution
78tree.  It contains the crypt libraries (for the DES encryption algorithm)
79and the binaries which depend on it.  It can only be found on those sites
80which carry the complete NetBSD distribution and that can legally obtain
81it.  (Remember, because of United States law, it may not be legal to
82distribute this set to locations outside of the United States and Canada.)

85The NetBSD _VER distribution includes a full X11 build for NetBSD/mac68k
86systems.  Except for some minor changes to facilitate building under
87NetBSD in general, the X clients and related libraries were built "out of
88the box" from an XFree86 3.3.1 tree, which in turn was based on X11R6.3.
89The binaries were built on, and require, a NetBSD/mac68k _VER system.  The
90mac68k X distribution sets can be found in the "mac68k/X11" subdirectory
91of the NetBSD _VER distribution tree, and are as follows:
92
93        xbase13		X clients, shared libraries, and related man pages.
94			Also includes bitmaps and miscellaneous
95			configuration files.
96			[ 2.34 M gzipped, 7.46M uncompressed ]
97
98        xserver13	The Xmac68k _monochrome_ server with man pages.
99			[ 1.32M gzipped, 3.25M uncompressed ]
100
101	xfont13		X fonts.
102			[ 5.66M gzipped, 6.99M uncompressed ]
103
104        xcomp13		Static libraries, include files (except bitmaps),
105			X config files (for xmkmf), and related man pages.
106			[ 1.57M gzipped, 6.38M uncompressed ]
107
108	xcontrib	User-contributed X binaries (e.g. xev, xload) with
109			man pages and default config files.
110			[ 178K gzipped, 661K uncompressed ]
111
112The mac68k binary distribution sets are distributed as full .tar.gz files
113(without that extension).  The instructions given for extracting the
114source sets work equally well for the binary sets, but it is worth noting
115that if you use that method, the files are extracted "below" the current
116directory.  That is, if you want to extract the binaries "into" your
117system, i.e. replace the system binaries with them, you have to run the
118"tar xfp" from /.  Also note that if you upgrade or install this way,
119those programs that you are using at the time will NOT be replaced.  If
120you follow the normal installation or upgrade procedures, this will be
121taken care of for you.
