2001-10-06Fix a few common typos and stuff related to tape installation.Miod Vallat
2001-10-06- use the new m4.common shared instructions.Miod Vallat
- try to have consistent order, across arches, in the list of possible installation media. - alpha can't install over nfs, but macppc can.
2001-10-03Mention more USB network cards supported by the aue(4) driver.Miod Vallat
From Jason Ackley <jason@ackley.net>, thanks.
2001-10-03o English, typosHeikki Korpela
o Clarify that cksum(1) and md5(1) are actual commands. Some systems only have md5(3) functions and the corresponding command is something different. ok miod@
2001-10-02- fix a few typos in the hardware list and update itMiod Vallat
- doesn't shout, improve style a bit - mention you can boot from cd-rom. Really. Yes you can. - don't support upgrades from prehistoric versions (< 2.0), so don't babble about the partition ID change or the so-called new shared libraries - get more text sync'ed with other arches And with the help of mickey@ - don't mention you can install over NFS, none of the floppies or the cd-rom has nfs support Thanks to mickey@ for insightful feedback
2001-10-02Rework the floppy and miniroot description:Miod Vallat
- try to keep description information together, with no duplicate circumlocutions - arches which have several floppies shouldn't say there is THE floppy, then THE floppy, and once more THE floppy. Change plural accordingly for the general description of earch floppy image possibilities, if more than one.
2001-10-01Correct Melco LUA-TX name, PR #2096.Miod Vallat
2001-10-01Update the description of the bsd.rd miniroot behaviour (it will askMiod Vallat
for a terminal first, then I/U/S). While there, remove a duplicated sentence on hp300 and add the complete bsd.rd installation description to the vax notes.
2001-09-24Why make things simple when you can make them overcomplicated, etc. Doh.Miod Vallat

2001-03-29An INIC-940 based card supplied by Initio proves that the iha driverKenneth R Westerback
does support both INIC-940 and INIC-950 chips. So allow iha to recognize and claim INIC-940 based cards, and change documentation to reflect new support. Thanks to Initio for providing the card to test.
