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.
2002-04-09Attempt to sync the hardware list with i386.html, while fixing a fewMiod Vallat
typos and layout issues. This needs some proofreading as well as adjusting the footnotes accordingly to RAMDISK* kernel status, to come later.
2002-04-08For some reason my "boot drive with id 0" experiment spontaneously decidedMiod Vallat
to boot spontaneously after a system upgrade, instead of requiring manual intervention and bootloader via rboot. I blame the old bootblocks for the inconvenience. Thus the "only id 4, 5 and 6 for boot" notice is null and void, so remove it.
2002-04-08Rework the netboot operation description. Also, try to stress a bit more thanMiod Vallat
you have to interrupt autoboot to netboot bsd.rd, since tired bulgarian eyes seem to have missed this in the past.
