The Amiga-specific portion of the NetBSD _VER release is found in the
|
|
"amiga" subdirectory of the distribution. That subdirectory is laid
|
|
out as follows:
|
|
|
|
.../NetBSD-_VER/amiga/

The Amiga now uses a single miniroot filesystem for both an initial
|
|
installation and for an upgrade. A gzipped version is available, for easier
|
|
downloading. (The gzipped version have the ".gz" extension added to
|
|
their names.)
|
|
|
|
Miniroot file system:
|
|
|
|
This file contains a BSD root file system setup to help you
|
|
install the rest of NetBSD or to upgrade a previous version of
|
|
NetBSD. This includes formatting and mounting your root and
|
|
/usr partitions and getting ready to extract (and possibly first
|
|
fetching) the distribution sets. There is enough on this file
|
|
system to allow you to make a SLIP or PPP connection, configure
|
|
an Ethernet, mount an NFS file system or ftp. You can also load
|
|
distribution sets from a SCSI tape or from one of your existing
|
|
AmigaDOS partitions.
|
|
|
|
This file is named "miniroot.fs".
|
|
|
|
The NetBSD/Amiga binary distribution sets contain the binaries which
|
|
comprise the NetBSD _VER release for the Amiga. There are seven standard
|
|
binary distribution sets, 5 X11 distribution sets, and the "security"
|
|
distribution set. The standard and X11 binary distribution sets can be
|
|
found in the "amiga/binary/sets" subdirectory of the NetBSD _VER
|
|
distribution tree, and are as follows:
|
|
|
|
base The NetBSD/Amiga _VER 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.
|
|
[ 8.7M gzipped, 25.2M uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
comp The NetBSD/Amiga Compiler tools. All of the tools
|
|
relating to C, C++, Objective C, and FORTRAN (yes,
|
|
there are two, although NO FORTRAN compiler!).
|
|
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.
|
|
[ 6.5M gzipped, 22.9M uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
etc 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.)
|
|
[ 52K gzipped, 320K uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
games This set includes the games and their manual pages.
|
|
[ 2.8M gzipped, 7.2M uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
man 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.
|
|
[ 2.4M gzipped, 10.0M uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
misc 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.
|
|
[ 2.1M gzipped, 8.1M uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
text This set includes NetBSD's text processing tools,
|
|
including groff, all related programs, and their
|
|
manual pages.
|
|
[ 960K gzipped, 3.7M uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
xbase The basic files needed for a complete X
|
|
client environment. This does not include
|
|
the X servers.
|
|
[ 2.4M gzipped, 7.4M uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
xcomp The extra libraries and include files needed
|
|
to compile X source code.
|
|
[ 1.6M gzipped, 6.7M uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
xcontrib Programs that were contributed to X.
|
|
[ 178k gzipped, 670k uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
xfont Fonts needed by X.
|
|
[ 5.7M gzipped, 7M uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
xserver Amiga X servers.
|
|
[ 1.5M gzipped, 3.7M unzipped ]
|
|
|
|
The Amiga security distribution set is named "secr" and can be found in
|
|
the "amiga/binary/security" subdirectory of the NetBSD _VER
|
|
distribution tree. It contains security related binaries which depend
|
|
on cryptographic source code. You do not need this distribution set to
|
|
use encrypted passwords in your password file; the "base" distribution
|
|
includes a crypt library which can perform only the decryption
|
|
function. The security distribution includes a version of the
|
|
Kerberos IV network security system, and a Kerberized version of the
|
|
"telnet" program. The "secr" distribution set can be found only on
|
|
those sites which carry the complete NetBSD distribution and which can
|
|
legally obtain it. (Remember, because of United States law, it may
|
|
not be legal to distribute this set to locations outside of the United
|
|
States and Canada.)
|
|
[ 798K gzipped, 2.4M uncompressed ]
|
|
|
|
The Amiga binary distribution sets are distributed as gzipped tar files
|
|
named with the extension ".tgz", e.g. "base.tgz". They are also
|
|
available in split form -- catted together, the members of a split set
|
|
form a gzipped tar file. Each Amiga binary distribution set also has
|
|
its own checksum files, 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 xfp"
|
|
from /. Also note that if you upgrade or install this way, those
|
|
programs that you are using at the time will NOT be replaced unless
|
|
you run "tar" with the "--unlink" option. If you follow the normal
|
|
installation or upgrade procedures, this will be taken care of for
|
|
you.
