- INSTALLATION NOTES for NetBSD/amiga 1.3_BETA
-
-
-
- Be sure to read _ALL_ of this document before you try to install
- NetBSD/amiga.
-
-
-
- What is NetBSD?
- ---- -- ------
-
- The NetBSD Operating System is a fully functional UN*X-like system
- derrived from the Berkeley Networking Release 2 (Net/2), 4.4BSD-Lite,
- and 4.4BSD-Lite2 sources. NetBSD runs on many architectures and is
- being ported to more.
-
- NetBSD is a creation of the members of the Internet community.
- Without the unique cooperation and coordination the net makes
- possible, it's likely that this release wouldn't have come about.
-
- The NetBSD 1.3_BETA release is a landmark. Building upon the successful
- NetBSD 1.2 release, we have provided numerous and significant
- functional enhancements, including support for many new devices,
- integration of many bug fixes, new and updated kernel subsystems, and
- many userland enhancements. The results of these improvements is a
- stable operating system fit for production use that rivals most
- commercially available systems.
-
- It is impossible to summarize the 18 months of development that went
- into the NetBSD 1.3_BETA release. Some of the significant changes include:
-
- Support for machine independant device drivers has been
- radically improved with the addition of the "bus.h" interface,
- providing a high quality abstraction for machine and
- architecture independent device access.
-
- The bus_dma interface has also been integrated, providing a
- machine-independent abstraction for DMA mapping. This permits many
- good things, including (among many) clean multi-platform
- bounce buffer support.
-
- Framework support for ISA "Plug and Play" has been added, as
- well as support for numerous "Plug and Play" devices.
-
- APM support has been added to NetBSD/i386.
-
- An initial cut of multiplatform PCMCIA support has been added.
-
- Support for ATAPI devices (initially just ATAPI CD-ROM drives)
- has been added.
-
- Support for Sun 3/80s (sun3x architecture) has been added.
-
- Support for R4000 DECstations has been added.
-
- Integration/merger of 4.4BSD Lite-2 sources into userland
- programs has nearly been completed.
-
- Most of userland now compiles with high levels of gcc warnings
- turned on, which has lead to the discovery and elimination of
- many bugs.
-
- The i386 boot blocks have been completely replaced with a new,
- libsa based two stage boot system. This has permitted
- integration of compressed boot support (see below).
-
- Many ports now support booting of compressed kernels, and
- feature new "Single Floppy" install systems that boot
- compressed install kernels and ramdisks. We intend to do
- substantial work on improving ease of installation in the
- future.
-
- "ypserv" has been added, thus completing our support for the
- "yp" network information system suite.
-
- Support for the Linux "ext2fs" filesystem and for FAT32 "msdosfs"
- filesystems has been added.
-
- TCP now has a SYN "compressed state engine" which provides
- increased robustness under high levels of received SYNs (as in
- the case of "SYN flood" attacks.) (Much of this code was
- derived from sources provided by BSDI.)
-
- An initial implementation of Path MTU discovery has been
- integrated (though it is not turned on by default).
-
- An initial kernel based random number generator pseudodevice has
- been added.
-
- Several major fixes have been integrated for the VM subsystem,
- including the fix of a notorious VM leak, improved
- synchronization between mmap()ed and open()ed files, and
- massively improved performance in low real memory conditions.
-
- A new swap subsystem has radically improved configuration and
- management of swap devices and adds swapping to files.
-
- Userland ntp support, including xntpd, has been integrated.
-
- The audio subsystems have been substantially debugged and
- improved, and now offer substantial emulation of the OSS audio
- interface, thus providing the ability to cleanly run emulated
- Linux and FreeBSD versions of sound intensive programs.
-
- A "packages" system has been adapted from FreeBSD and will
- provide binary package installations for third party
- applications.
-
- The XFree86 X source tree has been made a supported part of
- the NetBSD distribution, and X servers (if built for this
- port), libraries and utilities are now shipped with our releases.
-
- The ftp(1) program has been made astoundingly overfunctional.
- It supports command line editing, tab completion, status bars,
- automatic download of URLs specified on the command line,
- firewall support and many other features.
-
- All ports now use "new" config. Old config has been laid to rest.
-
- The arp subsystem and API has been rewritten to detach it from
- being very ethernet-centric.
-
- Many kernel interface manuals have been written and added to
- manual section 9.
-
- Several ports support much more hardware.
-
- Many updates to bring NetBSD closer to standards compliance.
-
- Most third party packages have been updated to the latest stable
- release.
-
- As has been noted, there have also been innumerable bug fixes.
-
- Kernel interfaces have continued to be refined, and more subsystems
- and device drivers are shared among the different ports. You can look
- for this trend to continue.
-
- NetBSD 1.3_BETA also includes some refinement to the NetBSD binary emulation
- system (which includes FreeBSD, HP-UX, iBCS2, Linux, OSF/1, SunOS, SVR4,
- Solaris and Ultrix compatibility), bringing NetBSD closer to the goal of
- making the emulation as accurate as possible.
-
- In the near future, we hope to integrate a fully rewritten Virtual
- Memory subsystem, kernel threads, and SMP support.
-
- This is the fourth public release of NetBSD for the Amiga and DraCo
- line of computers. Several additional SCSI boards are now supported,
- as well as Amiga audio and FPU-less 68020/68030 systems; the DraCo
- port supports the on-board serial and parallel interface and the
- battery backed clock now.
-
-
-
- Compatibility Issues:
- ------------- ------
-
- As with any system which has functionality added and products
- modified to fit within the goals of portability, standards
- adherance, and uniformity, there have been some changes which
- affects compatibility with existing NetBSD products.
-
- The following products may need the suggested work-around to
- work in NetBSD 1.3_BETA:
-
- * Swap configuration
-
- Description:
- Swap partittion configuration is now entirely in the domain
- of the user and as such all swap partitions need to be added
- to /etv/fstab. Common symptoms of upgrades missing this
- vital step include machine death during builds, and such.
-
- Fix:
- The most common position for a swap partition is the `b'
- partition of the drive the root file system is on. For
- diskless systems, check the new swapctl(8) manual for more
- detail on how this is done. Example fstab entrys:
- /dev/sd0b none swap sw,priority=0
- /dev/sd1b none swap sw,priority=5
-
- * AMANDA, The Advanced Maryland Automatic Network Disk Archiver,
- from http://www.amanda.org
-
- Description:
- Due to a change in the output of dump(8) to ensure
- consistency in the messages, AMANDA's dump output
- parser breaks.
-
- Error messages such as the following may be an
- indication that this problem is present:
-
- FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY:
- hostname wd0e lev 1 FAILED [no backup size line]
-
- Versions affected:
- 2.3.0.4, and most likely earlier versions
-
- Workaround/Fix:
- One of:
- * Apply the patch found at:
- ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/misc/patches/amanda-pre-2.4.patch
- * Upgrade to AMANDA 2.4.0 or newer. The side effect of this is
- that the network protocol is incompatible with earlier
- versions.
-
-
-
- The Future of NetBSD:
- --- ------ -- ------
-
- The NetBSD Foundation has been incorporated as a non-profit
- organization. Its purpose is to encourage, foster and promote the
- free exchange of computer software, namely the NetBSD Operating
- System. The foundation will allow for many things to be handled more
- smoothly than could be done with our previous informal organization.
- In particular, it provides the framework to deal with other parties
- that wish to become involved in the NetBSD Project.
-
- The NetBSD Foundation will help improve the quality of NetBSD by:
-
- * providing better organization to keep track of development
- efforts, including co-ordination with groups working in
- related fields.
-
- * providing a framework to receive donations of goods and
- services and to own the resources necessary to run the
- NetBSD Project.
-
- * providing a better position from which to undertake
- promotional activities.
-
- * periodically organizing workshops for developers and other
- interested people to discuss ongoing work.
-
- We hope to have regular releases of the full binary and source trees,
- but these are difficult to coordinate, especially with all of the
- architectures which we now support!
-
- We hope to support even _more_ hardware in the future, and have a
- rather large number of other ideas about what can be done to improve
- NetBSD.
-
- We intend to continue our current practice of making the
- NetBSD-current development source available on a daily basis.
-
- We intend to integrate free, positive changes from whatever sources
- will provide them, providing that they are well thought-out and
- increase the usability of the system.
-
- Above all, we hope to create a stable and accessible system, and to be
- responsive to the needs and desires of NetBSD users, because it is for
- and because of them that NetBSD exists.

- NetBSD 1.3_BETA Release Contents:
- ------ --- ------- --------
-
- The NetBSD 1.3_BETA release is organized in the following way:
-
- .../NetBSD-1.3_BETA/
- BUGS Known bugs list (incomplete
- and out of date).
-
- CHANGES Changes since NetBSD's last
- release (and before).
-
- LAST_MINUTE Last minute changes.
-
- MIRRORS A list of sites that mirror
- the NetBSD 1.3_BETA distribution.
-
- README.files README describing the
- distribution's contents.
-
- TODO NetBSD's todo list (incomplete
- and out of date).
-
- patches/ Post-release source code
- patches.
-
- source/ Source distribution sets; see
- below.
-
- In addition to the files and directories listed above, there is one
- directory per architecture, for each of the architectures for which
- NetBSD 1.3_BETA has a binary distribution. There are also
- 'README.export-control' files sprinkled liberally throughout the
- distribution tree, which point out that there are some portions of the
- distribution (i.e. the `domestic' portion) that may be subject to
- export regulations of the United States, and that it is your
- responsibility should you choose to export these portions.
-
- The source distribution sets can be found in subdirectories of the
- "source" subdirectory of the distribution tree. They contain the
- complete sources to the system. The source distribution sets
- are as follows:
-
- dsrc13 This set contains the "domestic" sources. These
- sources may be subject to United States export
- regulations.
- [ 140K gzipped, 655K uncompressed ] /* XXX */
-
- gsrc13 This set contains the "gnu" sources, including
- the source for the compiler, assembler, groff,
- and the other GNU utilities in the binary distribution
- sets.
- [ 7.1M gzipped, 30.4M uncompressed ] /* XXX */
-
- ksrc13 This set contains the sources to the NetBSD 1.3_BETA
- kernel, config(8), and dbsym(8).
- [ 6.0M gzipped, 27.0M uncompressed ] /* XXX */
-
- ssrc13 This set contains the "share" sources, which include
- the sources for the man pages not associated with
- any particular program, the sources for the
- typesettable document set, the dictionaries, and more.
- [ 2.4M gzipped, 8.9M uncompressed ] /* XXX */
-
- src13 This set contains all of the NetBSD 1.3_BETA sources which
- are not mentioned above.
- [ 9.3M gzipped, 41.6M uncompressed ] /* XXX */
-
- It is worth noting that unless all of the source distribution sets
- are installed (except the domestic set), you can't rebuild and install
- the system from scratch, straight out of the box. However, all that is
- required to rebuild the system in that case is a trivial modification
- to one Makefile.
-
- The source distribution sets are distributed as groups of files named
- "set_name.xx" where "set_name" is the distribution set name, and "xx"
- is the sequence number of the file, starting with "aa" for the first
- file in the distribution set, then "ab" for the next, and so on. All
- of these files except the last one of each set should be exactly
- 240,640 bytes long. (The last file is just long enough to contain the
- remainder of the data for that distribution set.)
-
- Catted together, the files belonging to a source distribution set
- comprise a gzipped tar file. If you want to look at list of the files
- contained in the set, you could use the command:
-
- cat set_name.?? | gunzip | tar tvf -
-
- or to actually extract the files contained in the set:
-
- cat set_name.?? | gunzip | tar xfp -
-
- In each of the source distribution set directories, there is a file
- named "CKSUMS" which contains the checksums of the files in that
- directory, as generated by the cksum(1) utility. You can use cksum to
- check the integrity of the archives, if you suspect that one of the
- files is corrupt and have access to a cksum binary.
-
- The Amiga-specific portion of the NetBSD 1.3_BETA release is found in the
- "amiga" subdirectory of the distribution. That subdirectory is laid
- out as follows:
-
- .../NetBSD-1.3_BETA/amiga/
- INSTALL Installation notes; this file.
-
- binary/
- sets/ Amiga binary distribution sets;
- see below.
-
- security/ Amiga security distribution;
- see below;
-
- installation/
- miniroot/ Amiga miniroot file system
- image; see below.
-
- misc/ Miscellaneous Amiga
- installation utilities; see
- installation section, below.
-
- 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 1.3_BETA release for the Amiga. There are seven binary
- distribution sets, and the "security" distribution set. The binary
- distribution sets can be found in subdirectories of the "amiga/binary"
- subdirectory of the NetBSD 1.3_BETA distribution tree, and are as follows:
-
- base The NetBSD/Amiga 1.3_BETA 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++, and FORTRAN (yes, there are two!).
- 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 ]
-
- The Amiga security distribution set is named "secr" and can be found
- in the "amiga/security" subdirectory of the NetBSD 1.3_BETA distribution
- tree. It contains crypt.c (the source file for the DES encryption
- algorithm) and the binaries which depend on it. 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, it
- may not be legal to distribute this set to locations outside of the
- United States and Canada.) [ 740K gzipped, 2.5M uncompressed ]
-
- The Amiga binary distribution sets are distributed in the same form as
- the source distribution sets; catted together, the members of a set
- form a gzipped tar file. Each Amiga 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.
-
-
-
- NetBSD System Requirements and Supported Devices:
- ------ ------ ------------ --- --------- -------
-
- NetBSD/amiga 1.3_BETA runs on any Amiga that has a 68020 or better CPU with
- some form of MMU, and on 68060 DraCos.
-
- For 68020 and 68030 systems, a FPU is recommended but not required.
- 68LC040, 68040V and 68LC060 systems don't work correctly at the moment.
-
- The minimal configuration requires 4M of RAM and about 75M of disk
- space. To install the entire system requires much more disk space,
- and to run X or compile the system, more RAM is recommended. (4M of
- RAM will actually allow you to compile, however it won't be speedy. X
- really isn't usable on a 4M system.)
-
- Here is a table of recommended HD partition sizes for a full install:
- partition: advise, with X, needed, with X
- root (/) 20M 20M 15M 15M
- user (/usr) 95M 125M 75M 105M
- swap ----- 2M for every M ram -----
- local (/usr/local) up to you
-
-
- As you may note the recommended size of /usr is 20M greater than
- needed. This is to leave room for a kernel source and compile tree as
- you will probably want to compile your own kernel. (GENERIC is large
- and bulky to accommodate all people).
-
- If you only have 4M of fast memory, you should make your swap partition
- larger, as your system will be doing much more swapping.
-
- Supported devices include:
- A4000/A1200 IDE controller.
- SCSI host adapters:
- 33c93 based boards: A2091, A3000 builtin and GVP series II.
- 53c80 based boards: 12 Gauge, IVS, Wordsync/Bytesync and

- DraCo parallel printer port.
- Real-time clocks:
- A2000, A3000, A4000 builtin (r/w),
- DraCo builtin (r/o).
-
- If its not on the above lists, there is no support for it in this
- release. Especially (but this is an incomplete list), there is no
- driver for:
-
- Blizzard III SCSI option, Cyberstorm Mk III SCSI option,
- Ferret SCSI, Oktagon SCSI.
-
- Known problems with some hardware:
-
- *) the Emplant SCSI adapter has been reported by a party to
- hang after doing part of the installation without problems.
-
- ***) SCSI scanner support is machine independent, so it should
- work, but hasn't been tested yet on most Amiga configurations.
- There are reports that the Mustek and HP Scanjet hang if
- accessed from the A3000. This might apply to other
- 33C93-Adapters, too.
-
- ****) Our floppy driver doesn't notice when mounted floppies are
- write-protected at the moment. Your floppy will stay
- unchanged, but you might not notice that you didn't write
- anything due to the buffer cache. Also note that HD floppy
- drives only get detected as such if a HD floppy is inserted at
- boot time.
-
-
-
- Getting the NetBSD System on to Useful Media:
- ------- --- ------ ------ -- -- ------ -----
-
- Installation is supported from several media types, including:
- AmigaDOS HD partitions
- Tape
- NFS partitions
- FTP
- NetBSD partitions, if doing an upgrade.
-
- The miniroot file system needs to be transferred to the NetBSD swap
- partition. This can be done from AmigaDOS in the case of a new
- install or upgrade, or from NetBSD when doing an upgrade. See the
- "Preparing your System for NetBSD Installation" section for details.
-
- The steps necessary to prepare the distribution sets
- for installation depend on which method of installation
- you choose. The various methods are explained below.
-
- To prepare for installing via an AmigaDOS partition:
-
- To install NetBSD from an AmigaDOS partition, you need to
- get the NetBSD distribution sets you wish to install
- on your system on to an AmigaDOS partition. All of the
- set_name.xx pieces can be placed in a single directory
- instead of separate ones for each distribution set. This
- will also simplify the installation work later on.
-
- Note where you place the files you will need this later.
-
- Once you have done this, you can proceed to the next
- step in the installation process, preparing your hard disk.
-
- To prepare for installing via a tape:
-
- To install NetBSD from a tape, you need to somehow
- get the NetBSD file sets you wish to install on
- your system on to the appropriate kind of tape,
- in tar format.
-
- If you're making the tape on a UN*X system, the easiest
- way to do so is:
-
- tar cvf <tape_device> <files>
-
- where "<tape_device>" is the name of the tape device
- that describes the tape drive you're using (possibly
- something like /dev/nrst0, but we make no guarantees 8-).
- If you can't figure it out, ask your system administrator.
- "<files>" are the names of the "set_name.xx" files
- which you want to be placed on the tape.
-
- Once you have done this, you can proceed to the next
- step in the installation process, preparing your hard disk.
-
- To prepare for installing via an NFS partition:
-
- NOTE: this method of installation is recommended
- only for those already familiar with using
- the BSD network-manipulation commands and
- interfaces. If you aren't, this documentation
- should help, but is not intended to be
- all-encompassing.
-
- Place the NetBSD software you wish to install into
- a directory on an NFS server, and make that directory
- mountable by the machine which you will be installing
- NetBSD on. This will probably require modifying the
- /etc/exports file of the NFS server and resetting
- mountd, acts which will require superuser privileges.
- Note the numeric IP address of the NFS server and of
- the router closest to the the new NetBSD machine,
- if the NFS server is not on a network which is
- directly attached to the NetBSD machine.
-
- Once you have done this, you can proceed to the next
- step in the installation process, preparing your hard disk.
-
- To prepare for installing via FTP:
-
- NOTE: this method of installation is recommended
- only for those already familiar with using
- the BSD network-manipulation commands and
- interfaces. If you aren't, this documentation
- should help, but is not intended to be
- all-encompassing.
-
- The preparations for this method of installation
- are easy: all you have to do is make sure that
- there's some FTP site from which you can retrieve
- the NetBSD installation when it's time to do
- the install. You should know the numeric IP
- address of that site, the numeric IP address of
- your nearest router if one is necessary
-
- Once you have done this, you can proceed to the next
- step in the installation process, preparing your hard disk.
-
- If you are upgrading NetBSD, you also have the option of installing
- NetBSD by putting the new distribution sets somewhere in your existing
- file system, and using them from there. To do that, you must do the
- following:
-
- Place the distribution sets you wish to upgrade somewhere in
- your current file system tree. At a bare minimum, you must
- upgrade the "base" binary distribution, and so must put the
- "base" set somewhere in your file system. If you wish,
- you can do the other sets, as well, but you should NOT upgrade
- the "etc" distribution; the "etc" distribution contains system
- configuration files that you should review and update by hand.
-
- Once you have done this, you can proceed to the next step in
- the upgrade process, actually upgrading your system.
-
-
-
- Preparing your System for NetBSD Installation:
- --------- ---- ------ --- ------ ------------
-
- You will need an AmigaDOS hard drive prep tool to prepare you hard
- drives for use with NetBSD/Amiga. HDToolBox is provided with the
- system software and on floppy installation disks since Release 2.0
- of AmigaDOS so we will provide instructions for its use.
-
- Preparing you hard disk with HDToolBox:
-
- A full explanation of HDToolBox can be found with your
- AmigaDOS manuals and is beyond the scope of this document.
-
- Note you will be modifying your HD's if you mess something
- up here you could lose everything on all the drives that
- you configure. It is therefore advised that you:
-
- Write down your current configurations. Do this
- by examining each partition on the drive and the
- drives parameters (from Change drive type.)
-
- Back up the partitions you are keeping.
-
- What you need to do is partition your drives; creating at least
- root, swap and /usr partitions and possibly at least one more for
- /local if you have the space.
-
- This should be done as the HDToolBox manual describes. One thing
- to note is that if you are not using a Commodore controller you
- will need to specify the device your SCSI controller uses e.g.
- if you have a Warp Engine you would:
-
- from cli,
- hdtoolbox warpdrive.device
-
- from wb set the tooltype,
- SCSI_DEVICE_NAME=warpdrive.device
-
- The important things you need to do above and beyond normal
- partitioning includes (from Partition Drive section):
-
- Marking all NetBSD partitions as non-bootable, with
- one exception: the root partition, if you want to boot
- NetBSD directly.
-
- Changing the file system parameters of the partitions
- to NetBSD ones. This must be done from the
- partitioning section and `Advanced options' must
- be enabled. To Make the needed changes:
-
- - Click the `Adv. Options' button
- - Click the `Change file system' button
-
- - Choose `Custom File System'
- - Turn off `Automount' if on.
- - Set the dostype to one of these three choices:
-
- root partition : 0x4e425207
- swap partition : 0x4e425301
- other partitions: 0x4e425507
-
- Here `other' refers to other partitions you will
- format for reading and writing under NetBSD (e.g.
- /usr)
-
- Make sure you hit the return key to enter this value
- as some versions of HDToolBox will forget your entry
- if you don't.
-
- - Turn custom boot code off
- - Set Reserved Blocks start and end to 0.
- - Click Ok.
-
- On the root (and, for installation, swap) partition,
- set instead this:
-
- - Turn custom boot code on
- - Set Reserved Blocks start and end to 0.
- - Set Number of Custom Boot Blocks to 16
- - Set Automount This Partition on
- - Click Ok.
-
- Mask and maxtransfer are not used with NetBSD.
-
-
- Once this is done NetBSD/Amiga will be able to recognize your
- disks and which partitions it should use.
-
- Transferring the miniroot file system:
-
- The NetBSD/Amiga installation or upgrade now uses a "miniroot"
- file system which is installed on the partition used by NetBSD
- for swapping. This removes the requirement of using a floppy
- disk for the file system used by the installation or upgrade
- process. It also allows more utilities to be present on the
- file system than would be available when using an 880K floppy
- disk.
-
- Once the hard disk has been prepared for NetBSD, the miniroot
- file system (miniroot.fs) is transferred to the swap
- partition configured during the hard disk prep (or the existing
- swap partition in the case of an upgrade). The xstreamtodev
- utility provided in the "amiga/utilities" directory can be used
- on AmigaDOS to transfer the file system for either a new
- installation or an upgrade. The file system can also be
- transferred on an existing NetBSD system for an update by
- using dd. This should only be done after booting NetBSD
- into single-user state. It may also be possible to shutdown
- to single-user, providing that the single-user state processes
- are not using the swap partition.
-
- On AmigaDOS, the command:
- xstreamtodev --input=miniroot.fs --rdb-name=<swap partition>
- where <swap partition> is the name you gave to the NetBSD
- partition to be used for swapping. If xstreamtodev is unable
- to determine the SCSI driver device name or the unit number
- of the specified partition, you may also need to include the
- option "--device=<driver.name>" and/or "--unit=<SCSI unit number>".
-
- To transfer the miniroot using NetBSD, you should be booted up
- in single user state on the current NetBSD system, or use the
- "shutdown now" command to shutdown to single-user state. Then
- copy the miniroot using dd:
- dd if=miniroot.fs of=/dev/rsd0b
- where /dev/rsd0b should be the device path of the swap partition
- your system is configured to use. Once the file is copied,
- reboot back to AmigaDOS to boot the upgrade kernel.
-
-
-
- Installing the NetBSD System:
- ---------- --- ------ ------
-
- Installing NetBSD is a relatively complex process, but, if you have
- this document in hand and are careful to read and remember the
- information which is presented to you by the install program, it
- shouldn't be too much trouble.
-
- Before you begin, you must have already prepared your hard disk as
- detailed in the section on preparing your system for install.
-
- The following is a walk-through of the steps necessary to get NetBSD
- installed on your hard disk. If you wish to stop the installation,
- you may hit Control-C at any prompt, but if you do, you'll have to
- begin again from scratch.
-
- Transfer the miniroot file system onto the hard disk partition
- used by NetBSD for swapping, as described in the "Preparing
- your System for NetBSD Installation" section above.
-
- * Booting from AmigaOS, using loadbsd:
-
- You then need to have "ixemul.library" in your LIBS: directory
- on AmigaDOS. You also need to have the "loadbsd" program
- in your command path. If AmigaDOS complains about loadbsd
- not being an executable file, be sure that the "Execute"
- protection bit is set. If not, set it with the command:
- Protect loadbsd add e
-
- Next you need to get yourself into NetBSD by loading the
- kernel from AmigaDOS with loadbsd like so:
-
- loadbsd -b netbsd
-
- If you have an AGA machine, and your monitor will handle
- the dblNTSC mode, you may also include the "-A" option to
- enable the dblNTSC display mode.
-
- If your machine has a fragmented physical memory space, as,
- e.g., DraCo machines, you should add the "-n2" option to
- enable the use of all memory segments.
-
- * Directly booting NetBSD, with boot blocks installed:
-
- [This description is for V40 (OS 3.1) ROMs. For older ROMs,
- there might be small differences. Check your AmigaOS documentation
- to learn about the exact procedure.]
-
- [XXX should note someplace that using bootblocks may not work on some
- systems, and may require a mountable filesystem on others?]
-
- Reboot your machine, holding down both mouse buttons if you
- have a 2-button mouse, the outer mouse buttons if you have
- a 3-button mouse. On the DraCo, press the left mouse button
- instead, when the boot screen prompts you for it.
-
- From the boot menu, select "Boot Options".
- Select the swap partition with the miniroot, and then "ok".
- Select "Boot" now. The machine will boot the bootblock, which
- will prompt your for a command line. You have a few seconds time
- to change the default. Entering an empty line will accept the
- default.
-
- The bootblock uses command lines of the form:
-
- file options
-
- where file is the kernel file name on the partition where the
- boot block is on, and options are the same as with loadbsd.
- E.g., instead of "loadbsd -bsSn2 netbsd" use "netbsd -bsSn2".
-
- * Once your kernel boots:
-
- You should see the screen clear and some information about
- your system as the kernel configures the hardware. Note which
- hard disk device(s) are configured (sd0, sd1, etc). Then
- you will be prompted for a root device. At this time type
- 'sd0b', where '0' is the device which contains the swap
- partition you created during the hard disk preparation.
-
- If the system should hang after entering the root device, try
- again with
-
- loadbsd -I ff -b netbsd
-
- This disables synchronous transfer on all SCSI devices.
-
- The system should continue to boot. For now ignore WARNING:
- messages about bad dates in clocks, and a warning about /etc/rc
- not existing. Eventually you will be be asked to enter the
- pathname of the shell, just hit return. After a short while,
- you will be asked to select the type of your keyboard. After
- you have entered a valid response here, the system asks you if
- you want to install or upgrade your system. Since you are
- reading the 'install' section, 'i' would be the proper
- response here...
-
- The installer starts with a nice welcome messages. Read this
- message carefully, it also informs you of the risks involved
- in continuing! If you still want to go on, type 'y'. The
- installer now continues by trying to figure out your disk
- configuration. When it is done, you will be prompted to
- select a root device from the list of disks it has found.
-
- You should know at this point that the disks are NOT numbered
- according to their scsi-id! The NetBSD kernel numbers the scsi
- drives (and other devices on the scsi bus) sequentially as it
- finds them. The drive with the lowest scsi id will be called sd0,
- the next one sd1, etc. Also, any Amiga internal IDE disk drives
- will be configured as "SCSI" drives, and will be configured
- before any 'real' SCSI drives (if any are present).
-
- YOU ARE NOW AT THE POINT OF NO RETURN. If you confirm that
- you want to install NetBSD, your hard drive will be modified,
- and perhaps its contents scrambled at the whim of the install
- program. Type Control-C NOW if you don't want this.
-
- At this time, you will need to tell the installer which partition
- will be associated with the different filesystems.
-
- The install program will now make the the file systems you
- specified. There should be only one error per file system in
- this section of the installation. It will look like so:
-
- newfs: ioctl (WDINFO): Invalid argument
- newfs: /dev/rsd0a: can't rewrite disk label
-
- If there are any others, restart from the the beginning of
- the installation process. This error is ok as the Amiga
- does not write disklabels currently. You should expect
- this error whenever using newfs.
-
- The install will now ask you want to configure any network
- information. It ill ask for the machine's host name, domain
- name, and other network configuration information.
-
- Since the network configuration might have lead to additional (nfs)
- filesystem entries, you get another chance to modify your fstab.
-
- Your are finally at the point where some real data will be put on
- your freshly made filesystems. Select the device type you wish
- to install from and off you go....
- Some notes:
- - If you want to install from tape, please read the section
- about how to create such a tape.
- - Install at least the base and etc sets.
- - If you have to specify a path relative to the mount-point and
- you need the mount-point itself, enter '.'.
-
- Next you will be asked to specify the timezone. Just select the
- timezone you are in. The installer will make the correct setup
- on your root filesystem. After the timezone-link is installed,
- the installer will proceed by creating the device nodes on your
- root filesystem.
-
- Be patient, this will take a while...
-
- Finally, the installer ask you if you want to install the bootblock
- code on your root disk. This is a matter of personal choice and can
- also be done from a running NetBSD system. See the 'installboot(8)'
- manual page about how to do this.
-
-
- Once the installer is done, halt the system with the "halt" command
- (wait for "halted" to be displayed) and reboot. Then again boot
- NetBSD this time with the command:
-
- loadbsd netbsd
-
- or select the root partition from the boot menu, and tell it to boot
-
- netbsd -s
-
- You need to do your final tweaks now. First mount your file systems
- like so:
-
- mount -av
-
- Your system is now complete but not completely configured; you
- should adjust the /etc/sendmail.cf file as necessary to suit your
- site and/or disable sendmail and other network related programs.
- These things can be found in /etc/netstart. Use vi, if you installed
- the man pages you can type `man vi' or `man ed' for instructions
- on how to use these somewhat non-intuitive editors.
-
- Once you are done with the rest of configuration unmount your file
- systems and halt your system, then reboot:
-
- cd /
- umount -av
- halt
- <reboot>
-
- Finally you can now boot your system and it will be completely
- functional:
-
- loadbsd -a netbsd
-
- When it boots off of the hard drive, you will have a complete
- NetBSD system! CONGRATULATIONS! (You really deserve them!!!)
-
-
-
- Upgrading a previously-installed NetBSD System:
- --------- - ---------- --------- ------ ------
-
- The upgrade to NetBSD 1.3_BETA is a binary upgrade; it would be prohibitive
- to make users upgrade by compiling and installing the 1.3_BETA sources, and
- it would be very difficult to even compile a set of instructions that
- allowed them to do so. Because of the various changes to the system,
- it is impractical to upgrade by recompiling from the sources and
- installing.
-
- To do the upgrade, you must have the NetBSD kernel on AmigaDOS and
- you must transfer the miniroot file system miniroot.fs onto the swap
- partition of the NetBSD hard disk. You must also have at least the
- "base" binary distribution set available, so that you can upgrade
- with it, using one of the upgrade methods described above. Finally,
- you must have sufficient disk space available to install the new
- binaries. Since the old binaries are being overwritten in place,
- you only need space for the new binaries, which weren't previously
- on the system. If you have a few megabytes free on each of your
- root and /usr partitions, you should have enough space.
-
- Since upgrading involves replacing the kernel, and most of the system
- binaries, it has the potential to cause data loss. You are strongly
- advised to BACK UP ANY IMPORTANT DATA ON YOUR DISK, whether on the
- NetBSD partition or on another operating system's partition, before
- beginning the upgrade process.
-
- To upgrade your system, follow the following instructions:
-
- Transfer the miniroot file system onto the hard disk partition
- used by NetBSD for swapping, as described in the "Preparing
- your System for NetBSD Installation" section above.
-
- Now boot up NetBSD using the 1.3_BETA kernel using the loadbsd
- command:
-
- loadbsd -b netbsd
-
- If you machine has a split memory space, like, e.g., DraCo
- machines, use this instead:
-
- loadbsd -bn2 netbsd
-
- * Directly booting NetBSD, with boot blocks installed:
-
- [This description is for V40 (OS 3.1) ROMs. For older ROMs,
- there might be small differences. Check your AmigaOS documentation
- to learn about the exact procedure.]
-
- [XXX another note about bootblock support?]
-
- Reboot your machine, holding down both mouse buttons if you
- have a 2-button mouse, the outer mouse buttons if you have
- a 3-button mouse. On the DraCo, press the left mouse button
- instead, when the boot screen prompts you for it.
-
- From the boot menu, select "Boot Options".
- Select the swap partition with the miniroot, and then "ok".
- Select "Boot" now. The machine will boot the bootblock, which
- will prompt your for a command line. You have a few seconds time
- to change the default. Entering an empty line will accept the
- default.
-
- The bootblock uses command lines of the form:
-
- file options
-
- where file is the kernel file name on the partition where the
- boot block is on, and options are the same as with loadbsd.
- E.g., instead of "loadbsd -bsSn2 netbsd" use "netbsd -bsSn2".
-
- * Once your kernel boots:
-
- You should see the screen clear and some information about
- your system as the kernel configures the hardware. Note which
- hard disk device is configured that contains your root and
- swap partition. When prompted for the root device, type
- 'sd0b' (replacing 0 with the disk number that NetBSD used for
- your root/swap device). When you reach the prompt asking you
- for a shell name, just hit return.
-
- You will be presented with some information about the upgrade
- process and a warning message, and will be asked if you wish
- to proceed with the upgrade process. If you answer
- negatively, the upgrade process will stop, and your disk will
- not be modified. If you answer affirmatively, the upgrade
- process will begin, and your disk will be modified. You may
- hit Control-C to stop the upgrade process at any time.
- However, if you hit it at an inopportune moment, your system
- may be left in an inconsistent (and possibly unusable) state.
-
- You will now be greeted and reminded of the fact that this is a
- potential dangerous procedure and that you should not upgrade the
- etc-set.
-
- When you decide to proceed, you will be prompted to enter
- your root disk. After you've done this, it will be checked
- automatically to make sure that the filesystem is in a sane
- state before making any modifications. After this is done,
- you will be asked if you want to configure your network.
-
- You are now allowed to edit your fstab. Normally you don't have
- to. Note that the upgrade-kit uses it's own copy of the fstab.
- Whatever you do here *won't* affect your actual fstab.
- After you are satisfied with your fstab, the upgrade-kit will check
- all filesystems mentioned in it. When they're ok, they will be
- mounted.
-
- You will now be asked if your sets are stored on a normally
- mounted filesystem. You should answer 'y' to this question if
- you have the sets stored on a filesystem that was present in
- the fstab. The actions you should take for the set extraction
- are pretty logical (I think).
-
- After you have extracted the sets, the upgrade kit will proceed
- with setting the timezone and installing the kernel and bootcode.
- This is all exactly the same as described in the installation
- section.
-
- Your system has now been upgraded to NetBSD 1.3_BETA.
-
- After a new kernel has been copied to your hard disk, your
- machine is a complete NetBSD 1.3_BETA system. However, that
- doesn't mean that you're finished with the upgrade process.
- There are several things that you should do, or might have to
- do, to insure that the system works properly.
-
- You will probably want to get the etc distribution,
- extract it, and compare its contents with those in your /etc/
- directory. You will probably want to replace some of your
- system configuration files, or incorporate some of the changes
- in the new versions into yours.
-
- You will want to delete old binaries that were part
- of the version of NetBSD that you upgraded from and have since
- been removed from the NetBSD distribution. If upgrading from
- a NetBSD version older than 1.0, you might also want to
- recompile any locally-built binaries, to take advantage of the
- shared libraries. (Note that any new binaries that you build
- will be dynamically linked, and therefore take advantage of
- the shared libraries, by default. For information on how to
- make statically linked binaries, see the cc(1) and ld(1)
- manual pages.)
-
-
-
- Using online NetBSD documentation
- ----- ------ ------ -------------
-
- Documentation is available if you first install the manual
- distribution set. Traditionally, the "man pages" (documentation)
- are denoted by 'name(section)'. Some examples of this are
-
- intro(1),
- man(1),
- apropros(1),
- passwd(1), and
- passwd(5).
-
- The section numbers group the topics into several categories, but three
- are of primary interest: user commands are in section 1, file formats
- are in section 5, and administrative information is in section 8.
-
- The 'man' command is used to view the documentation on a topic, and is
- started by entering 'man [section] topic'. The brackets [] around the
- section should not be entered, but rather indicate that the section is
- optional. If you don't ask for a particular section, the topic with the
- least-numbered section name will be displayed. For instance, after
- logging in, enter
-
- man passwd
-
- to read the documentation for passwd(1). To view the documentation for
- passwd(5), enter
-
- man 5 passwd
-
- instead.
-
- If you are unsure of what man page you are looking for, enter
-
- apropos subject-word
-
- where "subject-word" is your topic of interest; a list of possibly
- related man pages will be displayed.
-
-
- Administrivia:
- -------------
-
- Registration? What's that?
-
- If you've got something to say, do so! We'd like your input.
- There are various mailing lists available via the mailing list
- server at <majordomo@NetBSD.ORG>. To get help on using the mailing
- list server, send mail to that address with an empty body, and it will
- reply with instructions.
-
- There are various mailing lists set up to deal with comments and
- questions about this release. Please send comments to:
-
- netbsd-comments@NetBSD.ORG
-
- To report bugs, use the 'send-pr' command shipped with NetBSD,
- and fill in as much information about the problem as you can. Good
- bug reports include lots of details. Additionally, bug reports can
- be sent by mail to:
-
- netbsd-bugs@NetBSD.ORG
-
- Use of 'send-pr' is encouraged, however, because bugs reported with it
- are entered into the NetBSD bugs database, and thus can't slip through
- the cracks.
-
- There are also port-specific mailing lists, to discuss aspects of
- each port of NetBSD. Use majordomo to find their addresses. If
- you're interested in doing a serious amount of work on a specific
- port, you probably should contact the "owner" of that port (listed
- below).
-
- If you'd like to help with this effort, and have an idea as to how
- you could be useful, send mail and/or subscribe to:
-
- netbsd-help@NetBSD.ORG
-
- As a favor, please avoid mailing huge documents or files to these
- mailing lists. Instead, put the material you would have sent up
- for FTP somewhere, then mail the appropriate list about it, or, if
- you'd rather not do that, mail the list saying you'll send the data
- to those who want it.
