mishka 64c7b74aad PR/13749 - Incorrect options specified for dd(1) in tape installs.
Cleanup dd options accordingly to the following policy:
    1) put if, of, bs, conv in this order
    2) for reading/writing from/to disk don't use sync
    4) reading from tape - use sync
    3) writing to tape - use osync

Noted by Don Yuniskis (auryn at gci-net.com) via install/13749. Thanks!

hubertf 3eed780f61 Fix previous: xfont is also needed by X clients.
Thanks tron@
2006-10-31 14:05:22 +00:00
hubertf 4269337775 * Clarify that the xfont set is only needed by the X server
* simplify commands to extracts sets & pkgsrc
 * add spaces around \(em - why this isn't rendered as &mdash; is far
   beyond me, can someone with *roff fu have a look?

Inspired by posting by James K. Lowden on netbsd-docs.

XXX the hardware list needs real work. :(

in "upgrade" rather than "whatis", but I'm not sure.

pavel 529cc0c586 Apply patch from Hauke Fath to solve port-mac68k/29049: sysinst did not
newfs and mount the target filesystem.

In Hauke's words: "Basically, the mac68k md_make_bsd_partitions() function,
which replaces the MI make_bsd_partitions() because the mac68k port does not
have an on-disk BSD disklabel, neglected to sign up BSD partitions for
newfs'ing and mounting by setting the appropriate flags."

Revert the commit to the install notes (rev. 1.14 of notes/mac68k/prep) which
added a warning and a workaround for this bug, as requested by hubertf in the
PR log.

uwe 4402b3f15c Install notes into ${RELEASEDIR}/${RELEASEMACHINEDIR}, not
${RELEASEDIR}/${MACHINE}.  The former is the blessed way as it's
defined as a "subdirectory used below ${RELEASEDIR} when building a
release" and defaults to MACHINE in bsd.own.mk.

Make sure that ${RELEASEDIR}/${RELEASEMACHINEDIR} exists before
installing notes in to it.  It only ever worked because ~all ports
build at least one kernel as part of make release, and so the release
directory was created when kernel sets are installed.

XXX: Why don't we create ${RELEASEDIR}/${RELEASEMACHINEDIR} from the
top-level makefile before running make release?

riz ff57609c26 Update this script so it works correctly with the current format of

Also, clarify some comments, escape a backlash so that the correct
macro for ø is generated, and make sure it's substituted everywhere
in the name.

This script is still not perfect - it will produce incorrect output
the first time that the second portmaster has a hyperlink associated
with his name.  For now, though, it generates correct output for
what we've got.

 * Update list of available IDE drives to four (wd[0-3]) and
   five SCSI disks (sd[0-4]).

       maybe remove the ".if!" above that paragraph

Todo: XXX
 * Provide split sets - it's documented and supported by sysinst
   (or say how to create them?)
 * Fix mentions of "set_name.xx" for the AmigaDOS installation

   netbsd-INSTALL.gz on the x86k's native OS?)
 * Someone please either re-summon PS/2 "boot-ps2.fs" or remove the note on it
 * Tape install:
	.Dl # Ic "cd \*M/binary"
	.Dl # Ic "tar -cf" Ar tape_device Ic "misc etc kern"
   That doesn't work with today's set format (binary/sets/misc.tgz ...)
