2003-05-25Support for the Vigra VS11 frame buffer. This is basically the same as theMiod Vallat

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.
2002-10-07Set size updates. Almost correct.Miod Vallat
2002-09-02Make the cgfourteen work in 32bit when possible, also display the size ofMiod Vallat
the VSIMM in the dmesg.
2002-08-31Driver for the Vigra VS10 and VS12 SBus framebuffers, and possibly more fromMiod Vallat
this series. Thanks to Andrey Smagin (andrey at smagin dot com) for providing a VS10 card.
2002-08-12Sync hardware list with the current state of the code.Miod Vallat
2002-07-25Due to changes having already occured, and more being cooked at thisMiod Vallat
very moment, OpenBSD/sparc installation media will not allow upgrades to 3.2.
2002-06-30Sync supported and unsupported hardware lists with the web page.Miod Vallat
2002-06-09knfTodd T. Fries
2002-04-17Our m4 generated MAKEDEV will eventually be less SunOS-friendly than theyMiod Vallat
used to are, if at all; so warn people setting up diskless systems under SunOS or other operating systems that they might need to edit MAKEDEV for it to run properly on the host system.
2002-04-14Update sets sizes.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- remove a few obsolete textsMiod Vallat
- fix a few typo and layout issues - sync hardware lists - for sparc64, document the patch# for E220R eeprom
2002-03-30Factorize more common texts from the ramdisk operation.Miod Vallat
No text changes except for harmonization, and the blurb about network interface flags has bene slightly changed for some arches.

2001-10-14Be more verbose about OpenBoot prom versions 1.x, give instructions toMiod Vallat
change the scsi id/unit mapping.
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.

2001-10-06- 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.

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@
2001-10-02Sync with OpenBSDUpgrade macro change. Explicitely provide all the mediaMiod Vallat
able to start an upgrade procedure.
2001-10-02I'm so good I managed to cut'n'paste the same typo over all those files.Miod Vallat
2001-10-02Remove dangling references (see section foo with no section foo).Miod Vallat
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.
2001-10-01Update supported hardware list (sync with www page).Miod Vallat
Add a list of known to work MBus modules. Remove mention of manual creation of ttyc and ttyd for 4/300. Correct the description of le(4) flags. Mention sun4u are supported by the OpenBSD/sparc64 port.
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).
