      3   1.8   ender Installation is currently only supported from the local Macintosh hard
      4  1.13   ender drive, from a CD-ROM, or from an AppleShare volume (however, you may upgrade
      5  1.13   ender a system from within NetBSD; see the section on upgrading for more details).
      6  1.13   ender If you are installing from a local hard drive, this means that you'll need
      7  1.13   ender at least enough room for the largest file that you will have to install.
      8  1.13   ender This is the 8.6M base.tgz file.  There has been talk of allowing an install
      9  1.13   ender from split files.  If you have the time, desire, and knowledge, please feel
     10  1.13   ender free to add that functionality.

     12   1.8   ender If the install is being done from an AppleShare-mounted volume, the install
     13  1.11   ender utility must be in the same folder as the binary distribution sets.
     14   1.8   ender 
     15  1.10  scottr Each distribution file is in "raw" archive format.
     16   1.1  briggs 
     17  1.10  scottr     -	Distribution files must be downloaded in binary mode.  Common web
     18  1.10  scottr 	browsers may not be suitable for this task; FTP clients such as
     19  1.10  scottr 	Fetch and Anarchie work fine, but be sure to specify a binary file
     20  1.10  scottr 	transfer.
     21  1.10  scottr 
     22  1.10  scottr     -	The files should not be unpacked.  If you have the Internet Config
     23  1.10  scottr 	extension installed, you can disable this in the "Helpers" dialog
     24  1.10  scottr 	by removing the entry associated with ".tgz" files.  Other FTP
     25  1.10  scottr 	clients may require separate changes; consult your package's
     26  1.10  scottr 	documentation.
     27  1.13   ender 
     28  1.13   ender     -   If you are installing from a CD-ROM, the distribution sets are
     29  1.13   ender 	already in the proper format and no special handling is required.
     30   1.9  scottr 
     31   1.8   ender You will also need to collect the MacOS installation tools from the
     32   1.8   ender "mac68k/installation/misc" subdirectory of the NetBSD _VER distribution:
     33   1.8   ender Mkfs, NetBSD/Mac68k Installer, and NetBSD/Mac68k Booter.  These three are
     34   1.8   ender in binhexed, self-extracting archives as Mkfs.sea.hqx, Installer.sea.hqx,
     35   1.9  scottr and Booter.sea.hqx, respectively.  Extract them as you would any other
     36   1.9  scottr Macintosh application.
