Installation is currently only supported from the local Macintosh hard
drive or from an AppleShare volume (however, you may upgrade a system from
within NetBSD; see the section on upgrading for more details). This means
that you'll need at least enough room for the largest file that you will

allowing an install from split files. If you have the time, desire, and
knowledge, please feel free to add that functionality.

Each distribution file is in "raw" archive format, and must be downloaded
in binary mode. Common web browsers are not suitable for this task; FTP
clients such as Fetch and Anarchie work fine, but be sure to specify a
binary file transfer.

You will also need to collect the MacOS installation tools from the
"mac68k/installation/misc" subdirectory of the NetBSD _VER distribution:
Mkfs, NetBSD/Mac68k Installer, and NetBSD/Mac68k Booter. These three are
in binhexed, self-extracting archives as Mkfs.sea.hqx, Installer.sea.hqx,
and Booter.sea.hqx, respectively. Extract them as you would any other
Macintosh applications.
