upgrade revision 1.1 
1
2There is no automated upgrade program in this release.
3(This is the first official release for the Sun3 anyway.)
4However, it is possible to upgrade your system manually.
5
6Manual upgrade procedure:
7
8	* Place _at least_ the `base' binary set in a filesystem
9	  accessible to the target machine.  A local filesystem
10	  is preferred, since there may be incompatibilities
11	  between the NetBSD 1.1 kernel and older route(8)
12	  binaries.
13
14	* Back up your pre-existing kernel and copy the 1.1
15	  kernel into your root partition.
16
17	* Reboot with the 1.1 kernel into single-user mode.
18
19	* Check all filesystems:
20
21		/sbin/fsck -p
22
23	* Mount all local filesystems:
24
25		/sbin/mount -a -t nonfs
26
27	* If you keep /usr or /usr/share on an NFS server, you
28	  will want to mount those filesystems as well.  To do
29	  this, you will need to enable the network:
30
31		sh /etc/netstart
32
33	  NOTE: the route(8) commands may fail due to potential
34	  incompatibilities between route(8) and the NetBSD 1.1
35	  kernel.  Once you have enabled the network, mount the
36	  NFS filesystems.  If you use amd(8), you may or may not
37	  have to mount these filesystems manually.  Your mileage
38	  may vary.
39
40	* Make sure you are in the root filesystem and extract
41	  the `base' binary set:
42
43		cd /
44		tar --unlink -zxvpf /path/to/base11.tar.gz
45
46	  NOTE: the `--unlink' option is _very_ important!
47
48	* Install a new boot block:
49
50		cd /usr/mdec
51		cp -p ./ufsboot /mnt/ufsboot
52		sync ; sleep 1 ; sync
53		./installboot /mnt/ufsboot bootxx /dev/rsd0a
54		# Substitute your root partition here -^
55
56	* Sync the filesystems:
57
58		sync
59
60	* At this point you may extract any other binary sets
61	  you may have placed on local filesystems, or you may
62	  wish to extract additional sets at a later time.
63	  To extract these sets, use the following commands:
64
65		cd /
66		tar --unlink -zxvpf <path to set>
67
68NOTE: you SHOULD NOT extract the `etc' set if upgrading.  Instead,
69you should extract that set into another area and carefully merge
70the changes by hand.
