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.

2002-04-13- mention bsd.rd in the release contents, this is an easy way to upgradeMiod Vallat
- mention you can't install with less than 16MB those days - hardware list slight updates and precisions - document correctly which drivers are available on which install media - mention that the root partition needs to be located in the first 8GB (and perhaps a smaller limit on older machines) to boot properly this includes some contributions from nick@ and some feedback from deraadt@

2002-04-09Move introductory blocks of comments to above their functions.Kenneth R Westerback
Eliminate some blank lines. Only comments and blank lines affected, no code. Suggested by deraadt@
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.

2002-04-09More reorganizations, fixes and shrinkage.Kenneth R Westerback
a) Make [ -z "$var" ] standard idiom, replacing many variants on [ X"$var" = X"" ]. b) Factor out three large chunks of repeated code for finding sets, getting user to select sets and then installing the sets. This creates get_sets_list(), get_get_files_list() and install_get_files_list(). c) Eliminate unneeded dir_has_sets() function. d) Indent last large functions that were not properly indented. e) Replace most if not all 'test' invocations with [], replacing a few if statements along the way. f) Use ${MODE} a lot more to make messages appear more relevant to process. g) Fix erroneous display of $local_sets_dir so the error for a non-existant dir actually displays the user input, not an empty string. h) Eliminate the 'list' option in selecting sets. It was not possible to actually select anything except what was already displayed, so bring verbiage and options into line with code. i) Replace a number of '\"' and "\'" with just plain 's or "s as appropriate. j) Replace ". " with ". ". k) Use some more "OpenBSD {$VERSION_MAJOR}.${VERSION_MINOR}" to make more messages correct and current. l) Various typos fixed. Net shrinkage approximately 2K. ok millert@ deraadt@
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.

2002-04-05Tune get_selection() so thatKenneth R Westerback
1) If there are no unselected sets then the default becomes 'done'. 2) A bare '-' or '+' is ignored, since it causes problems for the functions that call get_selection().
