if certain parts of m4.common end up in the installation notes for an archictecture. - hppa has timezone info in bsd.rd now (according to list.local) - the macppc install.md sets MDXDM=y. OK shten@

2014-02-27Delete horrifically out of data add-on-peripheral lists; there are otherTheo de Raadt
places to check for this information, or trial and error, with error resulting in things getting fixed. Scary false warnings don't help anyone. Unmaintainable lists are always unmaintained.

2013-02-09Stop using the name `miniroot' when `bsd.rd' is implied. A few platformsMiod Vallat
have a real miniroot to be dd'ed to the disk, and that's fine; but when we are talking about booting bsd.rd (either from an existing setup, or the network, or the cd-rom images), then refer to it as `installation kernel'.
2013-02-09Update network boot configuration instructions to no longer refer toMiod Vallat
bootparams termcap-like two-letter fields in the configuration file.

2010-03-16Jumbo commit for 4.7 installation instructions:Miod Vallat
- do not mention tape as an installation media on systems where it is very unlikely that a tape drive can be connected to (i.e. anything with only USB as expansion capabilities) - do not mention that fetching the installation sets from a partition is ``for upgrades only''. You may do this for installation, but of course you can not use a partition which will be newfs'ed for that purpose. - mention ext2fs partitions as possible installation sets source only on platforms where the installation media actually can mount an ext2fs filesystem. - stress the fact that the sparc miniroot image is a GENERIC kernel with a little on-disk filesystem, and not a RAMDISK kernel with a little in-memory filesystem, and thus must not be overwritten during installation (i.e. be careful if you repartition the disk the miniroot has been put on). - more conv=sync -> conv=osync for tape setup instructions. - model-specific layout changes on armish, loongson and socppc instructions. - fix various typos and grammar mistaeks. "sure" deraadt@ (without eyeballing)

2009-10-25Add a mention the `a' partition needs to be contained within the first 2GBMiod Vallat
of the disk, for the prom to be able to correctly read the kernel image. Found the hard way by landry@

HFS + disklabel setups.
2009-05-12Try to catch up with installer changes in the installation notes.Miod Vallat
Also, the per-platform features are moved to a common place, which makes the MD layout easier to work on. m4.common is still a tangled mess of subtly placed dnl, though...

2008-08-05Better description of the installation steps:Miod Vallat
- document questions in proper order: hostname before network configuration, DNS only if network is configured, sshd and ntpd, aperture only on machines which need it, serial console only on machines which need it. This is done by splitting the end of OpenBSDCommonURL in various macros, OpenBSDInstallWrapup, OpenBSDInstallAperture, OpenBSDInstallConsole and OpenBSDInstallWrapupPart2. - use the above macros when appropriate, OpenBSDInstallWrapup* being mandatory on all arches. - remove serial console configuration blurb on sparc and sparc64, it is handled by OpenBSDInstallConsole now.
