The sun3-specific portion of the NetBSD 1.1 release is found in the
|
|
"sun3" subdirectory of the distribution. That subdirectory is laid
|
|
out as follows:
|
|
|
|
.../NetBSD-1.1/sun3/
|
|
INSTALL.txt Installation notes; this file.
|
|
|
|
install/ Boot programs, a GENERIC kernel,
|
|
a stand-alone RAMDISK kernel,
|
|
and a miniroot filesystem image.
|
|
see below.
|
|
|
|
binary/ sun3 binary distribution sets;
|
|
see below.
|
|
|
|
security/ sun3 security distribution;
|
|
see below.
|
|
|
|
The NetBSD/sun3 "install" distribution contains files that can be
|
|
used to install NetBSD onto a completely "bare" sun3. The files
|
|
in the `.../install' directory are described below:
|
|
|
|
miniroot.gz A gzipped copy of the miniroot filesystem.
|
|
This image is to be un-gzipped and copied
|
|
into the swap area of a disk.
|
|
|
|
netbsd-rd.gz A gzipped copy of the "RAMDISK kernel"
|
|
for installing the miniroot filesystem.
|
|
|
|
netbsd-gen.gz A gzipped GENERIC kernel (for upgrade)
|
|
|
|
netboot A copy of the network boot program.
|
|
This is useful if you are installing
|
|
a diskless NetBSD/sun3 system.
|
|
|
|
tapeboot A copy of the tape boot program, used
|
|
as the first segment of a boot tape.
|
|
|
|
These files can be used to make a boot tape suitable for installing
|
|
NetBSD/sun3. These files can also be used to configure an NFS server
|
|
to support installation "over the network". See the section "Getting
|
|
the NetBSD System onto Useful Media" for instructions on either method.
|
|
|
|
The NetBSD/sun3 binary distribution sets contain the binaries which
|
|
comprise the NetBSD 1.1 release for the sun3. There are seven binary
|
|
distribution sets, and the "security" distribution set. The binary
|
|
distribution sets can be found in the "sun3/binary" subdirectory of
|
|
the NetBSD 1.1 distribution tree, and are as follows:
|
|
|
|
base11 The NetBSD/sun3 1.1 base binary distribution. You
|
|
MUST install this distribution set. It contains the
|
|
base NetBSD utilities that are necessary for the
|
|
system to run and be minimally functional. It
|
|
includes shared library support, and excludes
|
|
everything described below.
|
|
[ 7.2M gzipped, 19M uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
comp11 The NetBSD/sun3 Compiler tools. All of the tools
|
|
relating to C and C++. This set includes the system
|
|
include files (/usr/include), the linker, the compiler
|
|
tool chain, and the various system libraries (except
|
|
the shared libraries, which are included as part of the
|
|
base set). This set also includes the manual pages for
|
|
all of the utilities it contains, as well as the system
|
|
call and library manual pages.
|
|
[ 4.6M gzipped, 14.7M uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
etc11 This distribution set contains the system configuration
|
|
files that reside in /etc and in several other places.
|
|
This set MUST be installed if you are installing the
|
|
system from scratch, but should NOT be used if you are
|
|
upgrading. (If you are upgrading, it's recommended that
|
|
you get a copy of this set and CAREFULLY upgrade your
|
|
configuration files by hand.)
|
|
[ 64K gzipped, 348K uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
games11 This set includes the games and their manual pages.
|
|
[ 2.8M gzipped, 6.8M uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
man11 This set includes all of the manual pages for the
|
|
binaries and other software contained in the base set.
|
|
Note that it does not include any of the manual pages
|
|
that are included in the other sets.
|
|
[ 850K gzipped, 3.3M uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
misc11 This set includes the system dictionaries (which are
|
|
rather large), the typesettable document set, and
|
|
man pages for other architectures which happen to be
|
|
installed from the source tree by default.
|
|
[ 1.8M gzipped, 6.5M uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
text11 This set includes NetBSD's text processing tools,
|
|
including groff, all related programs, and their
|
|
manual pages.
|
|
[ 770K gzipped, 2.8M uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
The sun3 security distribution set is named "secr11" and can be found
|
|
in the "sun3/security" subdirectory of the NetBSD 1.1 distribution
|
|
tree. It contains executables which are built in the "src/domestic" portion
|
|
if the NetBSD source tree. It can only be found on those sites which carry
|
|
the complete NetBSD distribution and that can legally obtain it. (Remember,
|
|
because of United States law, this distribution set may not be exported to
|
|
locations outside of the United States and Canada.)
|
|
[ 128K gzipped, 275K uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
The sun3 binary distribution sets are distributed as gzipped tar files.
|
|
Each sun3 binary distribution set also has its own "CKSUMS" file, just
|
|
as the source distribution sets do.
|
|
|
|
The instructions given for extracting the source sets work equally
|
|
well for the binary sets, but it is worth noting that if you use that
|
|
method, the files are extracted "below" the current directory. That
|
|
is, if you want to extract the binaries "into" your system, i.e.
|
|
replace the system binaries with them, you have to run the "tar xvfp"
|
|
from /. Also note that if you upgrade or install this way, those
|
|
programs that you are using at the time will NOT be replaced. If you
|
|
follow the normal installation or upgrade procedures, this will be
|
|
taken care of for you.
