xfer revision 1.9 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

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

21 1.8 ender "mac68k/installation/misc" subdirectory of the NetBSD _VER distribution:
22 1.8 ender Mkfs, NetBSD/Mac68k Installer, and NetBSD/Mac68k Booter. These three are
