2001-10-08powerpc -> macppc changes (missed previously)Dale Rahn
change ARCH=ARCH sed to use `arch -ks` so it has the proper macppc directory when referring to the ftp or CD directories.

2001-10-07- remove xlink set description, we don't have it nowadays.Miod Vallat
- showsize now always takes MB sizes as arguments, and prints the unit by itself.

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.
2001-10-06- add more macros, for common texts usually found in arch/xfer.Miod Vallat
- unobfuscate the tape installation notes - no need to tell the user ``if your tape was bootable, do this'' on arches where you can't boot from tape. - in the upgrade instructions, tell people it's better to upgrade all their sets and not just base; and strongly advise them to merge etc asap. People upgrading to 3.0 and having trouble with, say, sendmail will have no excuse. - add more comments to explain this whole mess.

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[install seems to have been missed by cvs yesterday]Miod Vallat
- more 425e details - don't let people suppose our official CD-ROM set can boot on hp300 - fix the disklabel hp300-specific notes All of this suggested and reviewed by millert@ This commit finishes the distrib/notes autumn overhaul so far. Feel free to hunt for errors and typos of mine in them.
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
2001-10-02Sync with OpenBSDUpgrade macro change. Explicitely provide all the mediaMiod Vallat
able to start an upgrade procedure.
2001-10-02Do not hardcode the ability to boot off a miniroot in the canonicalMiod Vallat
upgrade instructions. This will be needed for the i386 updates.
2001-10-02I'm so good I managed to cut'n'paste the same typo over all those files.Miod Vallat
2001-10-02More shared texts. Basically let modern arches with good hardware getMiod Vallat
rid of the ``you'd better know your disk geometry, serial number, date of manufacture, weight and temperature before installing, pal'' note.
2001-10-02Minor layout sync with sparc.Miod Vallat
2001-10-02Remove dangling references (see section foo with no section foo).Miod Vallat
2001-10-02Don't explain twice in 15 lines which models have sd and which modelsMiod Vallat
have wd, it's a bit exaggerate.
2001-10-02Your average close-to-release distrib/notes/FOO update.Miod Vallat
This time: - update hardware list, reorganize it more logically - gets most of the bsd.rd description and instructions on par with other arches - document hov to create a boot tape, and how to boot via s-records - tries to be more verbose about board setup This is still way too concise. If you write english better than me (trivial) and know mvme68k a bit, you're welcome to help fill the blanks. At least this is better than the existing instructions, and deraadt@ agrees.
2001-10-02- gets the installation notes more style-consistent with other archesMiod Vallat
- remove the note about ssl27.tgz - update the HD SC Setup url, complain about its insane length - random cleaning Miodspeak corrected by fries@

2001-10-02more gnu/usr.bin before usr.binTheo de Raadt
2001-10-02- try to bo more explicit about disk naming conventionsMiod Vallat
- update the description of the ramdisk behaviour - fix a few typos or style issues - remove 1st-person "methinks" blabla from original author - shortens the upgrade description, remove completely obsolete stuff - don't tell the user thrice the differences between the ramdisk and the miniroot niklas@ and jj@ had no objections.
2001-10-02because usr.bin/grep now exists, crunch goes wrong, and we need to put ↵Theo de Raadt
gnu/usr.bin before usr.bin, until our grep replaces gnu grep
2001-10-02- prepare more commented out text to describe a future miniroot and a futureMiod Vallat
floppy (sync with sparc layout) - meanwhile, comment out one reference to floppy boot which escaped.
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.
2001-10-01- 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
2001-10-01- update supported hardware listMiod Vallat
- harmonize installation text with other arches (getting boring) - don't tryp to scare people in the description of the port (rough edges? come on, come on, almost none) - add more installation methods (more to come, for rainy days)
2001-10-01- consistent ``sun3'' capitalization.Miod Vallat
2001-10-01- update hardware list, mention some unsupported devices as well.Miod Vallat
- move open firmware 101 to the ``preparation'' section - don't try to scare people wanting to upgrade, it works well nowadays - remove the note about not being able to boot from a Zip disk. thanks to some feedback from drahn@
2001-10-01- reorganizes the installation setup instructions to be more coherentMiod Vallat
with other installation notes, and a better place IMHO - mentions that the 425e is supported, but only using a serial console - reminds people to switch 400 models to HP-UX mode - puts the note about the first cylinder reserved for bootblocks at a better place - a few style changes: less all caps messages, in particular
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.
2001-10-01Correct Melco LUA-TX name, PR #2096.Miod Vallat
2001-10-01delete dev/sbus/cs4231reg.h (and .ph)Jason Wright
add dev/ic/apcdmareg.h (and .ph) fix up perl stuff now that we build shared versions on sparc64
2001-10-01include z8530var.h header file which was added with zs driver.Dale Rahn
deraadt@ ok.
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).
2001-10-01No boot floppy, so remove any references to a floppy.fs in examples.Miod Vallat
