When installing NetBSD for your
|
|
.Nx \*V
|
|
system, you have to decide where you want your root partition and
|
|
how you'll be downloading your kernel.
|
|
Since the
|
|
.Tn IBM
|
|
ROM rather limits your boot options, you won't be able to have the
|
|
machine boot independently.
|
|
Once you load the kernel, however, you may have the root file system on a
|
|
local disk or you can configure a diskless setup.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In either case, you'll need to set up to boot the kernel over the network
|
|
or over a serial line.
