If you confirm that - you want to install OpenBSD, your hard drive will be modified, - and perhaps its contents scrambled at the whim of the install - program. - - If you are sure you want to proceed, enter "yes" at the - prompt. - - The install program will now make the root filesystem you - specified. There should be only one error 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 Atari - does not write disklabels currently. You should expect - this error whenever using newfs. - - Next the install program will ask you which drive and - partition you wish to use as /usr. First it will list the - available drives. Choose one. Next it will give you a - list of the partitions on that disk along with their sizes, - types, etc.. Choose the letter that corresponds to the - partition you wish to use for /usr. To be able to make the - proper selection, you need to know, that OpenBSD assigns a - special meaning to some of the partition letters: - 'a' : root filesystem - 'b' : swap partition - 'c' : whole disk - You should choose a letter in the range 'd'-'p' for your - /usr filesystem. If you are doing a full install this should - be a partition that is at least 45M-50M large. If everything is - ok the install program will then format and mount your /usr.

An fstab will - have been created and initialized to correctly mount these - two file systems. This fstab will be in /mnt/etc. - - What you do from this point on depends on which media you're - using to install OpenBSD. Follow the appropriate instructions, - given below. - - To install from an GEMDOS partition: - - You first need to mount the GEMDOS partition - using the mount_msdos command. If e.g. your GEMDOS - partition is the first partition on sd0 you could - type: - - mkdir /mnt/gemdos - mount_msdos /dev/sd0d /mnt/gemdos - - You can use `disklabel sd0' to find out what types - of partitions are on the disk `sd0'. - - Next goto the directory in which you stored the - distribution sets. If e.g. you stored them in the - root directory of the partition: - - cd /mnt/gemdos - - When there, run "Set_tmp_dir" and choose the default - temporary directory, by hitting return at the - prompt. - - Run the "Extract" command, giving it as its sole - argument the name of the distribution set you wish - to extract. For example, to extract the base - distribution, use the command: - - Extract base20 - - and to extract the games distribution: - - Extract game20 - - If the distribution sets are in different directories, - you will need to cd to each directory in turn, running - "Set_tmp_dir" and the appropriate "Extract" command(s). - - Continue this process until you've finished installing - all of the sets which you desire to have on your - hard disk. Once you have extracted all sets and - are at the "#" prompt again, proceed to the section - "Configuring Your System," below. - - To install from tape: - - The first thing you should do is pick a temporary - directory where the distribution files can be stored. - To do this, use the command "Set_tmp_dir" and enter - your choice. The default is /mnt/usr/distrib. - - After you have picked a temporary directory, - you should issue the load command: - - Load_tape - - Next, you will be told to insert the media into - the appropriate drive, and hit return. Continue - to follow instructions until you are returned to - the "#" prompt. - - Go to the directory which contains the first - distribution set you wish to install. This is - either the directory you specified above, or possibly - a subdirectory of that directory. - - When there, run "Set_tmp_dir" again, and choose - the default temporary directory, by hitting - return at the prompt. - - Run the "Extract" command, giving it as its sole - argument the name of the distribution set you - wish to extract. For example, to extract the base - distribution, use the command: - - Extract base20 - - and to extract the games distribution: - - Extract game20 - - After the extraction is complete, go to the location - of the next set you want to extract, "Set_tmp_dir" - again, and once again issue the appropriate - extract command. Continue this process until - you've finished installing all of the sets which you - desire to have on your hard disk. - - After each set is finished, if you know that you - are running low on space you can remove the - distribution files for that set by saying: - - rm set_name.?? - - For example, if you wish to remove the distribution - files for the game09 set, after the "Extract game09" - command has completed, issue the command: - - rm game20.?? - - Once you have extracted all sets and are at the "#" prompt - again, proceed to the section "Configuring Your System," - below. - -Configuring Your System: ------------ ---- ------ - -Once you have finished extracting all of the distribution sets that -you want on your hard drive and are back at the "#" prompt, -you are ready to configure your system. - -The configuration utility expects that you have installed the base -system.
