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 have to install. This is the 8.6MB base13
|
|
file. There has been talk of allowing an install from split files.
|
|
If you have the time, desire, and knowledge, please feel free to add
|
|
that functionality.
|
|
|
|
If the install is being done from an AppleShare-mounted volume, the
|
|
install utility must be in the same folder as the data files.
|
|
|
|
Each distribution file is in "raw" UN*X 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 tools from the "mac68k/utils"
|
|
subdirectory of the NetBSD _VER distribution:
|
|
Mkfs,
|
|
Installer, and
|
|
BSD/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. If you
|
|
need them, the sources for these utilities are in the "src"
|
|
subdirectory.
