ok miod@
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.
2002-12-30Do not mention NFS as a possible tarballs source when the installation mediaMiod Vallat
does not support NFS mounts.
2002-10-03Document upgrades on sparc64 again, and tweak a few things.Miod Vallat

2002-02-07X11 is available for sparc64 now, and add RCSID.Miod Vallat
2001-11-02- U2 has been testedMiod Vallat
- floppies have neither NFS nor CDROM support - add a section about firmware upgrades, and tell that they might be necessary, especially for U1/1E/2 systems. Pointed out from brad@, some of the information provided here comes from Sun's firmware update documentation.
2001-10-15The final round of sparc64 installation notes updates:Miod Vallat
- add miniroot and bootable cd-rom information - fix a few wordings - fix incorrect Solaris manual pages section names - replace a rip-off of boot_sparc(8) with a more adequate rip-off of boot_sparc64(8) The whole ok deraadt@
2001-10-14Solaris friendly update!Miod Vallat
- Provide typical Solaris command lines for creating floppies, dumping miniroots to disks, and filling tapes. - Make the tape generation script more versatile. - When SunOS add_client(8) is mentioned, mention Solaris share(1M) as well. - Add ``Installing from Solaris'' instructions for sparc and sparc64 ports - While there, slight fixes to the ``Installing from SunOS'' sections on sparc and sun3.
2001-10-10Document the installation floppies, as well as the fact that floppy imagesMiod Vallat
can be used as poor man's miniroot.
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.
2001-10-03o 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@
2001-10-02I'm so good I managed to cut'n'paste the same typo over all those files.Miod Vallat
2001-10-01- update supported hardware listMiod Vallat
- remove more sparc'isms. The more you remove, the more there are... - describe more fun installation methods - fix a random typo
2001-10-01Don't refer to the ``new single floppy'' installation method, just ``floppy''Miod Vallat
will do since the two floppy installation is long dead. And don't even mention it on sparc64 (yet).
2001-09-24Bring the sparc64 installation notes in better shape, and closer toMiod Vallat
reality. Thanks to jason@ for hints and feedback.
2001-09-21Ugh, there's SOO much left to do hereJason Wright
2001-09-19stolen verbatim from sparc and only slightly modified from there... thisJason Wright
is going to need a LOT of work (any volunteers?)
