1 2The sun3-specific portion of the NetBSD 1.1 release is found in the 3"sun3" subdirectory of the distribution. That subdirectory is laid 4out as follows: 5 6.../NetBSD-1.1/sun3/ 7 INSTALL.txt Installation notes; this file. 8 9 install/ Boot programs, a GENERIC kernel, 10 a stand-alone RAMDISK kernel, 11 and a miniroot filesystem image. 12 see below. 13 14 binary/ sun3 binary distribution sets; 15 see below. 16 17 security/ sun3 security distribution; 18 see below. 19 20The NetBSD/sun3 "install" distribution contains files that can be 21used to install NetBSD onto a completely "bare" sun3. The files 22in the `.../install' directory are described below: 23 24 miniroot.gz A gzipped copy of the miniroot filesystem. 25 This image is to be un-gzipped and copied 26 into the swap area of a disk. 27 28 netbsd-rd.gz A gzipped copy of the "RAMDISK kernel" 29 for installing the miniroot filesystem. 30 31 netbsd-gen.gz A gzipped GENERIC kernel (for upgrade) 32 33 netboot A copy of the network boot program. 34 This is useful if you are installing 35 a diskless NetBSD/sun3 system. 36 37 tapeboot A copy of the tape boot program, used 38 as the first segment of a boot tape. 39 40These files can be used to make a boot tape suitable for installing 41NetBSD/sun3. These files can also be used to configure an NFS server 42to support installation "over the network". See the section "Getting 43the NetBSD System onto Useful Media" for instructions on either method. 44 45The NetBSD/sun3 binary distribution sets contain the binaries which 46comprise the NetBSD 1.1 release for the sun3. There are seven binary 47distribution sets, and the "security" distribution set. The binary 48distribution sets can be found in the "sun3/binary" subdirectory of 49the NetBSD 1.1 distribution tree, and are as follows: 50 51 base11 The NetBSD/sun3 1.1 base binary distribution. You 52 MUST install this distribution set. It contains the 53 base NetBSD utilities that are necessary for the 54 system to run and be minimally functional. It 55 includes shared library support, and excludes 56 everything described below. 57 [ 7.2M gzipped, 19M uncompressed ] 58 59 comp11 The NetBSD/sun3 Compiler tools. All of the tools 60 relating to C and C++. This set includes the system 61 include files (/usr/include), the linker, the compiler 62 tool chain, and the various system libraries (except 63 the shared libraries, which are included as part of the 64 base set). This set also includes the manual pages for 65 all of the utilities it contains, as well as the system 66 call and library manual pages. 67 [ 4.6M gzipped, 14.7M uncompressed ] 68 69 etc11 This distribution set contains the system configuration 70 files that reside in /etc and in several other places. 71 This set MUST be installed if you are installing the 72 system from scratch, but should NOT be used if you are 73 upgrading. (If you are upgrading, it's recommended that 74 you get a copy of this set and CAREFULLY upgrade your 75 configuration files by hand.) 76 [ 64K gzipped, 348K uncompressed ] 77 78 games11 This set includes the games and their manual pages. 79 [ 2.8M gzipped, 6.8M uncompressed ] 80 81 man11 This set includes all of the manual pages for the 82 binaries and other software contained in the base set. 83 Note that it does not include any of the manual pages 84 that are included in the other sets. 85 [ 850K gzipped, 3.3M uncompressed ] 86 87 misc11 This set includes the system dictionaries (which are 88 rather large), the typesettable document set, and 89 man pages for other architectures which happen to be 90 installed from the source tree by default. 91 [ 1.8M gzipped, 6.5M uncompressed ] 92 93 text11 This set includes NetBSD's text processing tools, 94 including groff, all related programs, and their 95 manual pages. 96 [ 770K gzipped, 2.8M uncompressed ] 97 98The sun3 security distribution set is named "secr11" and can be found 99in the "sun3/security" subdirectory of the NetBSD 1.1 distribution 100tree. It contains executables which are built in the "src/domestic" portion 101if the NetBSD source tree. It can only be found on those sites which carry 102the complete NetBSD distribution and that can legally obtain it. (Remember, 103because of United States law, this distribution set may not be exported to 104locations outside of the United States and Canada.) 105[ 128K gzipped, 275K uncompressed ] 106 107The sun3 binary distribution sets are distributed as gzipped tar files. 108Each sun3 binary distribution set also has its own "CKSUMS" file, just 109as the source distribution sets do. 110 111The instructions given for extracting the source sets work equally 112well for the binary sets, but it is worth noting that if you use that 113method, the files are extracted "below" the current directory. That 114is, if you want to extract the binaries "into" your system, i.e. 115replace the system binaries with them, you have to run the "tar xvfp" 116from /. Also note that if you upgrade or install this way, those 117programs that you are using at the time will NOT be replaced. If you 118follow the normal installation or upgrade procedures, this will be 119taken care of for you. 120 121
