120170122:
2	MINIX 3 did not import NetBSD's passwd.conf file, which makes the
3	userland fall back by default to the old, broken UNIX password hashing
4	algorithm. Among other problems, it truncates passwords to the first
5	eight characters.
6
7	Please install /etc/passwd.conf and reset your passwords with passwd.

10	Some tools are required to generate the locale resources which are
11	embedded into libintl, which is why you need to run the following:
12
13	for t in gencat locale mkcsmapper mkesdb mklocale
14	do
15		make -C /usr/src/usr.bin/${t} all install
16	done
17
18	Then the usual "make build".

2020150623:
21	In order to use the new Unix98 PTYs, and to ensure that the test set
22	continues to pass, please add the following line to your /etc/fstab:
23
24	"none	/dev/pts	ptyfs	rw,rslabel=ptyfs	0	0"
25
2620140801:
27	As the ABI went under heavy changes it is not possible to do a source
28	upgrade (make build) between:
29		commit 7ebdb97a28234e0181f93a8b786331dda507482
30	        Date:   Sun Feb 16 20:08:20 2014 +0000
31	and
32		commit f1deff716ea30b28693c16f8e48ba1a369e2e922
33		Date:   Thu Jul 31 18:36:24 2014 +0200

35	WARNING: Attempting to do so will break your system beyond repair, and
36		 require a full reinstallation. You have been warned.
