      1   1.8   ender Installation is currently only supported from the local Macintosh hard
      2   1.8   ender drive or from an AppleShare volume (however, you may upgrade a system from
      3   1.8   ender within NetBSD; see the section on upgrading for more details).  This means
      4   1.8   ender that you'll need at least enough room for the largest file that you will
      5   1.8   ender have to install.  This is the 8.6MB base.tgz file.  There has been talk of
      6   1.9  scottr allowing an install from split files.  If you have the time, desire, and
      7   1.8   ender knowledge, please feel free to add that functionality.

      9   1.8   ender If the install is being done from an AppleShare-mounted volume, the install
     10   1.8   ender utility must be in the same folder as the data files.

     12  1.10  scottr Each distribution file is in "raw" archive format.

     14  1.10  scottr     -	Distribution files must be downloaded in binary mode.  Common web
     15  1.10  scottr 	browsers may not be suitable for this task; FTP clients such as
     16  1.10  scottr 	Fetch and Anarchie work fine, but be sure to specify a binary file
     17  1.10  scottr 	transfer.
     18  1.10  scottr 
     19  1.10  scottr     -	The files should not be unpacked.  If you have the Internet Config
     20  1.10  scottr 	extension installed, you can disable this in the "Helpers" dialog
     21  1.10  scottr 	by removing the entry associated with ".tgz" files.  Other FTP
     22  1.10  scottr 	clients may require separate changes; consult your package's
     23  1.10  scottr 	documentation.
     24   1.9  scottr 
     25   1.8   ender You will also need to collect the MacOS installation tools from the
     26   1.8   ender "mac68k/installation/misc" subdirectory of the NetBSD _VER distribution:
     27   1.8   ender Mkfs, NetBSD/Mac68k Installer, and NetBSD/Mac68k Booter.  These three are
     28   1.8   ender in binhexed, self-extracting archives as Mkfs.sea.hqx, Installer.sea.hqx,
     29   1.9  scottr and Booter.sea.hqx, respectively.  Extract them as you would any other
     30   1.9  scottr Macintosh application.
