     19  1.3.2.2      cgd There is a floppy image in the "x68k/floppies" subdirectory of the
     20  1.3.2.2      cgd NetBSD _VER distribution, called "boot.fs".  This can be used for both
     21  1.3.2.2      cgd installing NetBSD/x68k for the first time, and upgrading it from the
     22  1.3.2.2      cgd previous release.  There is also gzipped version of this floppy (named
     23  1.3.2.2      cgd with ".fs.gz") available.

     25      1.1      oki The NetBSD/x68k binary distribution sets contain the binaries which
     26  1.3.2.2      cgd comprise the NetBSD _VER release for the x68k.  There are eight binary
     27  1.3.2.2      cgd distribution sets.  The binary distribution sets can be found in the
     28  1.3.2.2      cgd "x68k/binary/sets" subdirectory of the NetBSD _VER distribution tree,
     29  1.3.2.2      cgd and are as follows:
     30      1.1      oki 
     31  1.3.2.2      cgd 	base	The NetBSD/x68k _VER base binary distribution.  You
     32      1.1      oki 		MUST install this distribution set.  It contains the
     33      1.1      oki 		base NetBSD utilities that are necessary for the
     34      1.1      oki 		system to run and be minimally functional.  It
     35      1.1      oki 		includes shared library support, and excludes
     36      1.1      oki 		everything described below.
     37  1.3.2.2      cgd 		[ 8.7M gzipped, 25.2M uncompressed ]
     38      1.1      oki 
     39  1.3.2.2      cgd 	comp	The NetBSD/x68k Compiler tools.  All of the tools
     40  1.3.2.1   mellon 		relating to C, C++, Objective C, and FORTRAN (yes,
     41  1.3.2.1   mellon 		there are two, although NO FORTRAN compiler!).
     42      1.1      oki 		This set includes the system include files
     43      1.1      oki 		(/usr/include), the linker, the compiler tool chain,
     44      1.1      oki 		and the various system libraries (except the shared
     45      1.1      oki 		libraries, which are included as part of the base
     46      1.1      oki 		set).  This set also includes the manual pages for all
     47      1.1      oki 		of the utilities it contains, as well as the system
     48      1.1      oki 		call and library manual pages.

     50      1.1      oki 
     51  1.3.2.2      cgd 	etc	This distribution set contains the system
     52      1.1      oki 		configuration files that reside in /etc and in several
     53      1.1      oki 		other places.  This set MUST be installed if you are
     54      1.1      oki 		installing the system from scratch, but should NOT be
     55      1.1      oki 		used if you are upgrading.  (If you are upgrading,
     56      1.1      oki 		it's recommended that you get a copy of this set and
     57      1.1      oki 		CAREFULLY upgrade your configuration files by hand.)
     58  1.3.2.2      cgd 		[ 53K gzipped, 330K uncompressed ]

     69      1.1      oki 		binaries and other software contained in the base set.
     70      1.1      oki 		Note that it does not include any of the manual pages
     71      1.1      oki 		that are included in the other sets.
     72  1.3.2.2      cgd 		[ 2.4M gzipped, 9.8M uncompressed ]

     74  1.3.2.2      cgd 	misc	This set includes the system dictionaries (which are
     75      1.1      oki 		rather large), the typesettable document set, and
     76      1.1      oki 		man pages for other architectures which happen to be
     77      1.1      oki 		installed from the source tree by default.

     81      1.1      oki 		including groff, all related programs, and their
     82      1.1      oki 		manual pages.

     85  1.3.2.2      cgd 
     86  1.3.2.2      cgd IMPORTANT: In previous versions of NetBSD, the kernel from the install
     87  1.3.2.2      cgd floppy was copied onto the hard drive in a special step. In the new
     88  1.3.2.2      cgd install system, the kernel on the floppy is unsuited to being copied
     89  1.3.2.2      cgd onto the hard drive. Instead, a new set, "kern", has been added which
     90  1.3.2.2      cgd contains a generic kernel to be unloaded onto the drive. It must be
     91  1.3.2.2      cgd extracted in order to have a minimally functioning system.
     92      1.1      oki 
     93  1.3.2.2      cgd For other platform, there is a security distribution named "secr"
     94      1.3  mycroft provided.  The x68k security distribution is not provided in the
     95      1.1      oki binary form.
     96      1.1      oki 
     97  1.3.2.2      cgd The x68k binary distribution sets are distributed as gzipped tar files
     98  1.3.2.2      cgd named with the extension ".tgz", e.g. "base.tgz".
     99      1.1      oki 
    100      1.1      oki The instructions given for extracting the source sets work equally
    101      1.1      oki well for the binary sets, but it is worth noting that if you use that
    102      1.1      oki method, the files are extracted "below" the current directory.  That
    103      1.1      oki is, if you want to extract the binaries "into" your system, i.e.
    104  1.3.2.2      cgd replace the system binaries with them, you have to run the "tar xpf"
    105      1.1      oki from /.  Also note that if you upgrade or install this way, those
    106  1.3.2.2      cgd programs that you are using at the time will NOT be replaced unless
    107  1.3.2.2      cgd you run "tar" with the "--unlink" option.  If you follow the normal
    108  1.3.2.2      cgd installation or upgrade procedures, this will be taken care of for
    109  1.3.2.2      cgd you.
