2003-09-06MD Installation notes updates for 3.4, 1/3Miod Vallat
This mainly includes an hopefully helpful section about i386 upgrades, which I urge knowledgeable people and native english speakers to check out, in order to polish it soon enough.

2003-03-24Tweak a few texts to cope with the fact that we ship official OpenBSD CD-ROMMiod Vallat
and bootable CD-ROM mini images on some platforms, too. Mention such a mini image for alpha, consistent spelling of CD-ROM, and a few minor updates not worth mentioning I had lying in my tree.

2002-04-14Sync hardware notes with reality.Miod Vallat
2002-04-09Since the installation procedure will list all the supported media flagsMiod Vallat
via ifconfig -m, there is no need to suggest canonical media flags on some arches, especially since the end user might have a different interface with different flags; instead, be more cosy and mention that looking at the manual page for the interface might be helpful for desperate cases. Thus, merge the OpenBSDInstallNet and OpenBSDInstallNet2 macros, and remove thde in-between text for the arches that had such a paragraph.
2002-04-07- more SRM firmware information (how to switch to SRM, boot -fi, boot -fl)Miod Vallat
- correct upgrade information (do it yourself)
2002-04-01Don't list TurboChannel alpha as supported until the various supportMiod Vallat
issues are fixed.

system to boot multiuser. Based on feedback from Dan Shechter <danshtr@yahoo.com> on alpha@
