This document describes the installation procedure for NetBSD 4.0.1 on
the _i_3_8_6 platform. It is available in four different formats titled
_I_N_S_T_A_L_L_._e_x_t, where _._e_x_t is one of _._p_s, _._h_t_m_l, _._m_o_r_e, or _._t_x_t:
_._p_s PostScript.
_._h_t_m_l Standard Internet HTML.
_._m_o_r_e The enhanced text format used on UNIX-like systems by the
more(1) and less(1) pager utility programs. This is the
format in which the on-line _m_a_n pages are generally pre-
sented.
_._t_x_t Plain old ASCII.
You are reading the _m_o_r_e version.

This section contains some brief notes describing what you need to
install NetBSD 4.0.1 on a machine of the i386 architecture.
++oo Fetch the appropriate pair of boot floppy images from the
_i_3_8_6_/_i_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n_/_f_l_o_p_p_y_/ directory, or a CD-ROM image (the images
from _i_3_8_6_/_i_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n_/_c_d_r_o_m_/ are bootable, but do not contain binary
sets - these are intended for network installs, or when different
bootblocks are needed). Most people will need the _b_o_o_t_1_._f_s and
_b_o_o_t_2_._f_s or _b_o_o_t_._i_s_o images for VGA console installation, or the
_b_o_o_t_-_c_o_m_1_._f_s and _b_o_o_t_-_c_o_m_2_._f_s or _b_o_o_t_-_c_o_m_._i_s_o images for installation
via serial console. You may also possibly (but not necessarily) want
to use _b_o_o_t_l_a_p_1_._f_s and _b_o_o_t_l_a_p_2_._f_s if installing on a laptop. The
INSTALL_LAPTOP kernel can be loaded from one of the cdrom images via
the bootloader: bboooott _n_b_l_a_p_t_o_p.
The default kernel on ISO images have ACPI enabled. This is known to
cause issues on a few older machines which have buggy ACPI tables. To
boot with ACPI disabled, interrupt the NetBSD boot loader, and enter:
bboooott --cc. At the userconf prompt, enter: ddiissaabbllee aaccppii followed by:
qquuiitt. The kernel from the two floppy set is also present on the ISO
images and can be loaded using: bboooott _n_b_n_o_a_c_p_i.
++oo The actual binary distribution is in the _i_3_8_6_/_b_i_n_a_r_y_/_s_e_t_s_/ directory.
When you boot the install floppies, the installation program can
fetch these files for you (using e.g. ftp), if you have a network
connection. There are several other methods to get the binary sets
onto your machine.
You will at a minimum need one of the kernel sets, typically
_k_e_r_n_-_G_E_N_E_R_I_C_._t_g_z, as well as _b_a_s_e_._t_g_z and _e_t_c_._t_g_z. In a typical
workstation installation you will probably want all the installation
sets.
++oo Write the floppy images directly to a pair of floppies. If you have
problems writing a raw image to a floppy, the rraawwrriittee..eexxee MS-DOS pro-
gram or the RRaawwrriittee3322..eexxee Windows32 program (inside _r_a_w_r_i_t_e_3_2_._z_i_p) in
the _i_3_8_6_/_i_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n_/_m_i_s_c_/ directory may be of help.
The disk(s) you just prepared will be used to boot the installation
kernel, which contains all the tools required to install NetBSD.
++oo For third-party programs which are not part of the base NetBSD dis-
tribution, you will want to explore the ppkkggssrrcc system with its more
than 7200 program packages.
WWhhaatt iiss NNeettBBSSDD??
The NetBSD Operating System is a fully functional Open Source UNIX-like
operating system derived from the University of California, Berkeley Net-
working Release 2 (Net/2), 4.4BSD-Lite, and 4.4BSD-Lite2 sources. NetBSD
runs on fifty four different system architectures (ports), featuring sev-
enteen machine architectures across fifteen distinct CPU families, and is
being ported to more. The NetBSD 4.0.1 release contains complete binary
releases for many different system architectures. (A few ports are not
fully supported at this time and are thus not part of the binary distri-
bution. Please see the NetBSD web site at hhttttpp::////wwwwww..NNeettBBSSDD..oorrgg// for
information on them.)
NetBSD is a completely integrated system. In addition to its highly por-
table, high performance kernel, NetBSD features a complete set of user
utilities, compilers for several languages, the X Window System, firewall
software and numerous other tools, all accompanied by full source code.
NetBSD is a creation of the members of the Internet community. Without
the unique cooperation and coordination the net makes possible, it's
likely that NetBSD wouldn't exist.

The NetBSD 4.0.1 update is the first security/critical update of the
NetBSD 4.0 release branch. This represents a selected subset of fixes
deemed critical in nature for stability or security reasons.
These fixes will also appear in future releases (NetBSD 4.1), together
with other less-critical fixes and feature enhancements.
The complete list of changes can be found in the CHANGES-4.0.1:

++oo NetBSD-SA2008-004, bzip2(1) Multiple issues (CVE-2008-1372 and
CVE-2005-0953), has been fixed by upgrading bzip2 to 1.0.5.
++oo NetBSD-SA2008-005, OpenSSH Multiple issues (CVE-2008-1483 and
CVE-2008-1657), has been fixed by applying patches from upstream.
++oo NetBSD-SA2008-006, Integer overflow in strfmon(3) function
(CVE-2008-1391), has been fixed.

are two related changes to this advisory:
-- The default behavior of ipfilter's Port Address Translation has
been changed to using random port allocation rather than sequen-
tial mappings, to avoid decreasing the randomness of source ports
used for DNS queries which affects the BIND cache poisoning prob-
lem.
-- A `query-source' statement, which could allow the BIND cache poi-
soning attack, has been commented out in the default
named.conf(5) file.
++oo NetBSD-SA2008-010, Malicious PPPoE discovery packet can overrun a
kernel buffer (CVE-2008-3584), has been fixed.
++oo NetBSD-SA2008-011, ICMPv6 MLD query (CVE-2008-2464), has been fixed.
++oo NetBSD-SA2008-012, Denial of Service issues in racoon(8)
(CVE-2008-3652), has been fixed by upgrading ipsec-tools to release
0.7.1. Note this also fixes CVE-2008-3651.
++oo upcoming NetBSD-SA2008-013, IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol routing
vulnerability (CVE-2008-2476), has been fixed.

The NetBSD 4.0 release provides numerous significant functional enhance-
ments, including support for many new devices, integration of hundreds of
bug fixes, new and updated kernel subsystems, and many user-land enhance-
ments. The result of these improvements is a stable operating system fit
for production use that rivals most commercially available systems.
It is impossible to completely summarize more than a year of development
that went into the NetBSD 4.0 release. The complete list of changes can
be found in the CHANGES:
ffttpp::////ffttpp..NNeettBBSSDD..oorrgg//ppuubb//NNeettBBSSDD//NNeettBBSSDD--44..00//CCHHAANNGGEESS
and CHANGES-4.0:

hardware RAID device controllers. Currently supporting the mfi(4)
driver.
++oo Kernel uses stateful read-ahead algorithm.
++oo dkctl(8) can be used to switch buffer queuing strategies on the fly
on wd(4) disks, see also bufq(9).
++oo fileassoc(9) is used by Veriexec, it adds in-kernel and file-system
independent file meta-data association interface.
++oo firmload(9): an API for loading firmware images used by various hard-
ware devices.
++oo gpio(4): imported General Purpose I/O framework from OpenBSD.
++oo onewire(4): imported Dallas Semiconductor 1-wire bus framework from
OpenBSD.
++oo The proplib(3) protocol was added for sending property lists to/from
the kernel using ioctls.
++oo spi(4): new SPI (Serial Peripherial Interface) framework.
++oo timecounter(9) adds a new time-keeping infrastructure along with NTP
API 4 nanokernel implementation. Almost all platforms were changed to
support this API.
++oo Start of 32bit-Linux-emulation for amd64 (COMPAT_LINUX32).
++oo wscons(4) console driver supports splash screens, scrolling, progress
bar for kernel and boot messages.
Kernel interfaces have continued to be refined, and more subsystems and
device drivers are shared among the different ports. You can look for
this trend to continue.

++oo The FAST_IPSEC IPsec implementation was extended to use hardware
acceleration for IPv6, in addition to the hardware accelerated IPv4
that was available before. See fast_ipsec(4) for more information.
++oo mprotect(2) got restrictions to enforce W^X policies, from PaX. See
options(4), sysctl(3), and paxctl(1).
++oo GCC 4's support for stack smashing protection (SSP) was enabled by
adding libssp, see security(8).
++oo The kernel authorization framework kauth(9) was added, replacing the
traditional BSD credential management and privileged operation access
control with an abstract layer, allowing the implementation of vari-
ous security models either as part of the NetBSD distribution or as
third-party LKMs.
NetBSD's kernel authorization is a hybrid clean-room implementation
of a similar interface developed by Apple, extending its capabilities
and combining concepts of credential inheritance control.

In this release of NetBSD, some software components known from previous
releases were removed from the system. In some cases those were compo-
nents that are not useful anymore or their utility does not justify main-
tenance overhead. Other components were not working properly and there
was lack of interest in fixing them.
++oo Sushi was removed from the base system due to lack of interest and
maintenance. If you really want it, it is available in the CVS repos-
itory at othersrc/usr.sbin/sushi. However, be warned that it is
unmaintained and is most likely out of date.
++oo Vinum was removed due to lack of interest and maintenance. At the
time of removal, it had several known serious issues (including not
being compilable). RAIDframe provides similar functionality. If you
were using Vinum you will need to back up your data, delete the Vinum
partitions, create RAIDframe partitions, and restore your data to
them. Details about RAIDframe can be found in raid(4), raidctl(8),
and the NetBSD Guide:
hhttttpp::////wwwwww..NNeettBBSSDD..oorrgg//ddooccss//gguuiiddee//eenn//cchhaapp--rrff..hhttmmll.
++oo Sendmail was removed. Postfix is the MTA and provides the sendmail(1)
command line tool. Postfix has been included with NetBSD since NetBSD
1.5 was released in December 2005. Details about Postfix can be found
in the NetBSD Guide:
hhttttpp::////wwwwww..NNeettBBSSDD..oorrgg//ddooccss//gguuiiddee//eenn//cchhaapp--mmaaiill..hhttmmll.
For those who need Sendmail, it is available from pkgsrc in the
_m_a_i_l_/_s_e_n_d_m_a_i_l and _m_a_i_l_/_s_e_n_d_m_a_i_l_8_1_3 packages.
++oo NETCCITT and NETNS were removed due to lack of interest and mainte-
nance. They had known serious issues (including being out of date
with respect to other network code) and there were no known users at
the time of their removal. Unfortunately, there is no replacement or
option for them.
++oo UUCP was removed. The NetBSD improvements were merged into the pkgsrc
version. For those who use UUCP tools, they are available from pkgsrc
in the _n_e_t_/_u_u_c_p package. The cu(1) command is available as a frontend
to tip(1).
++oo The Fortran 77 compiler ( g77 ) has been removed with the transition
from GCC 3 to GCC 4, which does not include it. For those who need
it, it is available from pkgsrc in the _l_a_n_g_/_g_c_c_3_-_f_7_7 package.
++oo The evbsh5 port has been removed from NetBSD due to lack of interest,
compounded by a lack of available SH5 hardware.

The NetBSD Foundation has been incorporated as a non-profit organization.
Its purpose is to encourage, foster and promote the free exchange of com-
puter software, namely the NetBSD Operating System. The foundation will
allow for many things to be handled more smoothly than could be done with
our previous informal organization. In particular, it provides the
framework to deal with other parties that wish to become involved in the
NetBSD Project.
The NetBSD Foundation will help improve the quality of NetBSD by:
++oo providing better organization to keep track of development efforts,
including co-ordination with groups working in related fields.
++oo providing a framework to receive donations of goods and services and
to own the resources necessary to run the NetBSD Project.
++oo providing a better position from which to undertake promotional
activities.
++oo periodically organizing workshops for developers and other interested
people to discuss ongoing work.
We hope to support even _m_o_r_e hardware in the future, and we have a rather
large number of other ideas about what can be done to improve NetBSD.
We intend to continue our current practice of making the NetBSD-current
development source available on a daily basis.
We intend to integrate free, positive changes from whatever sources sub-
mit them, providing that they are well thought-out and increase the
usability of the system.
Above all, we hope to create a stable and accessible system, and to be
responsive to the needs and desires of NetBSD users, because it is for
and because of them that NetBSD exists.

MIRRORS A list of sites that mirror the NetBSD 4.0.1 distribution.
README.files README describing the distribution's contents.
TODO NetBSD's todo list (also somewhat incomplete and out of
date).
_p_a_t_c_h_e_s_/ Post-release source code patches.
_s_o_u_r_c_e_/ Source distribution sets; see below.
In addition to the files and directories listed above, there is one
directory per architecture, for each of the architectures for which
NetBSD 4.0.1 has a binary distribution.
The source distribution sets can be found in subdirectories of the _s_o_u_r_c_e
subdirectory of the distribution tree. They contain the complete sources
to the system. The source distribution sets are as follows:
ggnnuussrrcc This set contains the ``gnu'' sources, including the source for
the compiler, assembler, groff, and the other GNU utilities in
the binary distribution sets.
_9_5 _M_B _g_z_i_p_p_e_d_, _4_8_4 _M_B _u_n_c_o_m_p_r_e_s_s_e_d
sshhaarreessrrcc This set contains the ``share'' sources, which include the
sources for the man pages not associated with any particular
program; the sources for the typesettable document set; the
dictionaries; and more.
_6 _M_B _g_z_i_p_p_e_d_, _2_5 _M_B _u_n_c_o_m_p_r_e_s_s_e_d
ssrrcc This set contains all of the base NetBSD 4.0.1 sources which
are not in ggnnuussrrcc, sshhaarreessrrcc, or ssyyssssrrcc.
_4_5 _M_B _g_z_i_p_p_e_d_, _2_1_4 _M_B _u_n_c_o_m_p_r_e_s_s_e_d
ssyyssssrrcc This set contains the sources to the NetBSD 4.0.1 kernel for
all architectures; config(1); and dbsym(8).
_3_3 _M_B _g_z_i_p_p_e_d_, _1_6_5 _M_B _u_n_c_o_m_p_r_e_s_s_e_d
xxssrrcc This set contains the sources to the X Window System.
_9_5 _M_B _g_z_i_p_p_e_d_, _5_0_2 _M_B _u_n_c_o_m_p_r_e_s_s_e_d
All the above source sets are located in the _s_o_u_r_c_e_/_s_e_t_s subdirectory of
the distribution tree.
The source sets are distributed as compressed tar files. Except for the
ppkkggssrrcc set, which is traditionally unpacked into _/_u_s_r_/_p_k_g_s_r_c, all sets
may be unpacked into _/_u_s_r_/_s_r_c with the command:
# ccdd // ;; ttaarr --zzxxppff sseett__nnaammee..ttggzz
In each of the source distribution set directories, there are files which
contain the checksums of the files in the directory:
BSDSUM Historic BSD checksums for the various files in that
directory, in the format produced by the command:
cckkssuumm --oo 11 _f_i_l_e.
CKSUM POSIX checksums for the various files in that directory,
in the format produced by the command:
cckkssuumm _f_i_l_e.
MD5 MD5 digests for the various files in that directory, in
the format produced by the command:
cckkssuumm --aa MMDD55 _f_i_l_e.
SHA512 SHA512 digests for the various files in that directory, in
the format produced by the command:
cckkssuumm --aa SSHHAA551122 _f_i_l_e.
SYSVSUM Historic ATT System V UNIX checksums for the various files
in that directory, in the format produced by the command:
cckkssuumm --oo 22 _f_i_l_e.
The SHA512 digest is the safest checksum, followed by the MD5 digest, and
finally the POSIX checksum. The other two checksums are provided only to
ensure that the widest possible range of systems can check the integrity
of the release files.
_N_e_t_B_S_D_/_i_3_8_6 _s_u_b_d_i_r_e_c_t_o_r_y _s_t_r_u_c_t_u_r_e

_i_3_8_6 subdirectory of the distribution: _._._._/_N_e_t_B_S_D_-_4_._0_._1_/_i_3_8_6_/. It con-
tains the following files and directories:
_I_N_S_T_A_L_L_._h_t_m_l
_I_N_S_T_A_L_L_._p_s
_I_N_S_T_A_L_L_._t_x_t
_I_N_S_T_A_L_L_._m_o_r_e Installation notes in various file formats, including this

NetBSD maintains its own set of sources for the X Window System in order
to assure tight integration and compatibility. These sources are based
on XFree86, and tightly track XFree86 releases. They are currently
equivalent to XFree86 4.5.0. Binary sets for the X Window System are
distributed with NetBSD. The sets are:
xxbbaassee The basic files needed for a complete X client environment.
This does not include the X servers.
_6 _M_B _g_z_i_p_p_e_d_, _1_8 _M_B _u_n_c_o_m_p_r_e_s_s_e_d

_0_._0_3 _M_B _g_z_i_p_p_e_d_, _0_._1_7 _M_B _u_n_c_o_m_p_r_e_s_s_e_d
xxsseerrvveerr The X server. This includes all XFree86 X servers. Because all
of them are included, this set is large. However, you will only
need one of the servers provided in this set. (Typically,
XXFFrreeee8866).
_9 _M_B _g_z_i_p_p_e_d_, _2_5 _M_B _u_n_c_o_m_p_r_e_s_s_e_d
The i386 binary distribution sets are distributed as gzipped tar files
named with the extension ..ttggzz, e.g. _b_a_s_e_._t_g_z.
The instructions given for extracting the source sets work equally well
for the binary sets, but it is worth noting that if you use that method,
the filenames stored in the sets are relative and therefore the files are
extracted _b_e_l_o_w _t_h_e _c_u_r_r_e_n_t _d_i_r_e_c_t_o_r_y. Therefore, if you want to extract
the binaries into your system, i.e. replace the system binaries with
them, you have to run the ttaarr --xxppff command from the root directory ( _/ )
of your system. This utility is used only in a Traditional method
installation.
_N_o_t_e_: Each directory in the i386 binary distribution also has its own
checksum files, just as the source distribution does.

NetBSD 4.0.1 runs on ISA (AT-Bus), EISA, MCA, PCI, and VL-bus systems
with 386-family processors, with or without math coprocessors. The mini-
mal configuration is said to require 4 MB of RAM and 50 MB of disk space,
though we do not know of anyone running with a system quite this minimal
today. To install the entire system requires much more disk space (the
unpacked binary distribution, without sources, requires at least 65 MB
without counting space needed for swap space, etc), and to run X or com-
pile the system, more RAM is recommended. (4 MB of RAM will actually
allow you to run X and/or compile, but it won't be speedy. Note that
until you have around 16 MB of RAM, getting more RAM is more important
than getting a faster CPU.)

Specific driver footnotes:
[*] Drivers are _n_o_t present in kernels on the distribution floppies.
Except as noted above, all drivers are present on all disks. Also,
at the present time, the distributed kernels support only one SCSI
host adapter per machine. NetBSD normally allows more, though, so
if you have more than one, you can use all of them by compiling a
custom kernel once NetBSD is installed.
[+] Support _i_s included in the GENERIC kernels, although it is not in
the kernels which are on the distribution floppies.
[b] Devices require BIOS support for PCI-PCI bridging on your mother-
board. Most reasonably modern Pentium motherboards have this sup-
port, or can acquire it via a BIOS upgrade.
[m] Devices are only supported by MCA-enabled kernels.

If you are not booting off a CD-ROM, you will need to have some floppy
disks to boot off; either three 1.44 MB floppies or one 1.2 MB floppy.
For laptops that have cardbus slots, you should use the _b_o_o_t_l_a_p_1_._f_s and
_b_o_o_t_l_a_p_2_._f_s floppy images.
For older machines with little RAM, use _b_o_o_t_-_t_i_n_y_._f_s. This image is tai-
lored towards old, small-memory systems, and thus does not contain any
PCI or SCSI support. It should work on systems with 4M of RAM. Note
that this means 4M available to NetBSD; systems that are said to have 4M
may have 640k of base memory and 3072k of extended memory, which cur-
rently will not work, as this is a total of 3712k.
For old machines that may have EISA, SCSI and more RAM, but only have a
1.2M floppy drive, use _b_o_o_t_-_s_m_a_l_l_1_._f_s and _b_o_o_t_-_s_m_a_l_l_2_._f_s.
For old IBM PS/2 machines with MCA, use _b_o_o_t_-_p_s_2_-_1_._f_s and _b_o_o_t_-_p_s_2_-_2_._f_s
floppy images.
For all other systems, use _b_o_o_t_1_._f_s and _b_o_o_t_2_._f_s
For the 2-floppy sets (and the CD boot image), utilities to repair a
badly crashed systems are included. The _b_o_o_t_-_t_i_n_y_._f_s image has a sepa-
rate _r_e_s_c_u_e_-_t_i_n_y_._f_s rescue floppy image because of lack of space.
If you are using a UNIX-like system to write the floppy images to disks,
you should use the dd command to copy the file system image(s) (.fs file)
directly to the raw floppy disk. It is suggested that you read the dd(1)
manual page or ask your system administrator to determine the correct set
of arguments to use; it will be slightly different from system to system,
and a comprehensive list of the possibilities is beyond the scope of this
document.
If you are using MS-DOS to write the floppy image(s) to floppy disk, you
should use the rraawwrriittee utility, provided in the _i_3_8_6_/_i_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n_/_m_i_s_c
directory of the NetBSD distribution. It will write a file system image
(.fs file) to a floppy disk. A rraawwrriittee3322 is also available that runs
under MS Windows.
Note that if you are installing or upgrading from a writable media, the
media can be write-protected if you wish. These systems mount a root
image from inside the kernel, and will not need to write to the media.
If you booted from a floppy, the floppy disk may be removed from the
drive after the system has booted.
Installation is supported from several media types, including:
++oo CD-ROM / DVD
++oo MS-DOS floppy
++oo FTP
++oo Remote NFS partition
++oo Tape
++oo Existing NetBSD partitions, if performing an upgrade
The steps necessary to prepare the distribution sets for installation
depend upon which installation medium you choose. The steps for the var-
ious media are outlined below.
_C_D_-_R_O_M _/ _D_V_D Find out where the distribution set files are on the CD-
ROM or DVD. Likely locations are _b_i_n_a_r_y_/_s_e_t_s and
_i_3_8_6_/_b_i_n_a_r_y_/_s_e_t_s.
Proceed to the instruction on installation.
_M_S_-_D_O_S _f_l_o_p_p_y NetBSD doesn't include split sets to keep the distribution
size down. They can be created on a separate machine
using the split(1) command, running e.g. sspplliitt --bb 223355kk
bbaassee..ttggzz bbaassee.. to split the _b_a_s_e_._t_g_z file from
_i_3_8_6_/_b_i_n_a_r_y_/_s_e_t_s into files named _b_a_s_e_._a_a, _b_a_s_e_._a_b, and so
on. Repeat this for all _s_e_t___n_a_m_e_._t_g_z files, splitting
them into _s_e_t___n_a_m_e_._x_x files. Count the number of
_s_e_t___n_a_m_e_._x_x files that make up the distribution sets you
want to install or upgrade. You will need one fifth that
number of 1.2 MB floppies, or one sixth that number of
1.44 MB floppies. You should only use one size of floppy
for the install or upgrade procedure; you can't use some
1.2 MB floppies and some 1.44 MB floppies.
Format all of the floppies with MS-DOS. Do _n_o_t make any
of them bootable MS-DOS floppies, i.e. don't use format /s
to format them. (If the floppies are bootable, then the
MS-DOS system files that make them bootable will take up
some space, and you won't be able to fit the distribution
set parts on the disks.) If you're using floppies that
are formatted for MS-DOS by their manufacturers, they
probably aren't bootable, and you can use them out of the
box.
Place all of the _s_e_t___n_a_m_e_._x_x files on the MS-DOS disks.
Once you have the files on MS-DOS disks, you can proceed
to the next step in the installation or upgrade process.
If you're installing NetBSD from scratch, go to the sec-
tion on preparing your hard disk, below. If you're
upgrading an existing installation, go directly to the
section on upgrading.
_F_T_P The preparations for this installation/upgrade method are
easy; all you need to do is make sure that there's an FTP
site from which you can retrieve the NetBSD distribution
when you're about to install or upgrade. If you don't
have DHCP available on your network, you will need to know
the numeric IP address of that site, and, if it's not on a
network directly connected to the machine on which you're
installing or upgrading NetBSD, you need to know the
numeric IP address of the router closest to the NetBSD
machine. Finally, you need to know the numeric IP address
of the NetBSD machine itself. If you don't have access to
a functioning nameserver during installation, the IPv4
address of ffttpp..NNeettBBSSDD..oorrgg is 204.152.190.13 and the IPv6
address is 2001:4f8:4:7:230:48ff:fe31:43f2 (as of Decem-
ber, 2007).
Once you have this information, you can proceed to the
next step in the installation or upgrade process. If
you're installing NetBSD from scratch, go to the section
on preparing your hard disk, below. If you're upgrading
an existing installation, go directly to the section on
upgrading.
_N_o_t_e_: This method of installation is recommended for
those familiar with using BSD network configuration
and management commands. If you aren't, this docu-
mentation should help, but is not intended to be
all-encompassing.
_N_F_S Place the NetBSD distribution sets you wish to install
into a directory on an NFS server, and make that directory
mountable by the machine on which you are installing or
upgrading NetBSD. This will probably require modifying
the _/_e_t_c_/_e_x_p_o_r_t_s file on the NFS server and resetting its
mount daemon (mountd). (Both of these actions will proba-
bly require superuser privileges on the server.)
You need to know the numeric IP address of the NFS server,
and, if you don't have DHCP available on your network and
the server is not on a network directly connected to the
machine on which you're installing or upgrading NetBSD,
you need to know the numeric IP address of the router
closest to the NetBSD machine. Finally, you need to know
the numeric IP address of the NetBSD machine itself.
Once the NFS server is set up properly and you have the
information mentioned above, you can proceed to the next
step in the installation or upgrade process. If you're
installing NetBSD from scratch, go to the section on pre-
paring your hard disk, below. If you're upgrading an
existing installation, go directly to the section on
upgrading.
_N_o_t_e_: This method of installation is recommended for
those already familiar with using BSD network con-
figuration and management commands. If you aren't,
this documentation should help, but is not intended
to be all-encompassing.
_T_a_p_e To install NetBSD from a tape, you need to make a tape
that contains the distribution set files, in `tar' format.
If you're making the tape on a UNIX-like system, the easi-
est way to do so is probably something like:
# ttaarr --ccff _t_a_p_e___d_e_v_i_c_e _d_i_s_t___d_i_r_e_c_t_o_r_i_e_s
where _t_a_p_e___d_e_v_i_c_e is the name of the tape device that
describes the tape drive you're using; possibly _/_d_e_v_/_r_s_t_0,
or something similar, but it will vary from system to sys-
tem. (If you can't figure it out, ask your system admin-
istrator.) In the above example, _d_i_s_t___d_i_r_e_c_t_o_r_i_e_s are the
distribution sets' directories, for the distribution sets
you wish to place on the tape. For instance, to put the
kkeerrnn--GGEENNEERRIICC,, bbaassee,, and eettcc distributions on tape (in
order to do the absolute minimum installation to a new
disk), you would do the following:
# ccdd ......//NNeettBBSSDD--44..00..11
# ccdd ii338866//bbiinnaarryy
# ttaarr --ccff _t_a_p_e___d_e_v_i_c_e kkeerrnn--GGEENNEERRIICC bbaassee eettcc
_N_o_t_e_: You still need to fill in _t_a_p_e___d_e_v_i_c_e in the
example.
Once you have the files on the tape, you can proceed to
the next step in the installation or upgrade process. If
you're installing NetBSD from scratch, go to the section
on preparing your hard disk, below. If you're upgrading
an existing installation, go directly to the section on
upgrading.

First and foremost, before beginning the installation process, _m_a_k_e _s_u_r_e
_y_o_u _h_a_v_e _a _r_e_l_i_a_b_l_e _b_a_c_k_u_p of any data on your hard disk that you wish to
keep. Mistakes in partitioning your hard disk may lead to data loss.
Before you begin, you should be aware of the geometry issues that may
arise in relation to your hard disk. First of all, you should know about
sector size. You can count on this to be 512 bytes; other sizes are rare
(and currently not supported). Of particular interest are the number of
sectors per track, the number of tracks per cylinder (also known as the
number of heads), and the number of cylinders. Together they describe
the disk geometry.
The BIOS has a limit of 1024 cylinders and 63 sectors per track for doing
BIOS I/O. This is because of the old programming interface to the BIOS
that restricts these values. Most of the big disks currently being used
have more than 1024 real cylinders. Some have more than 63 sectors per
track. Therefore, the BIOS can be instructed to use a fake geometry that
accesses most of the disk and the fake geometry has less than or equal to
1024 cylinders and less than or equal to 63 sectors. This is possible
because the disks can be addressed in a way that is not restricted to
these values, and the BIOS can internally perform a translation. This
can be activated in most modern BIOSes by using _L_a_r_g_e or _L_B_A mode for the
disk.
NetBSD does not have the mentioned limitations with regard to the geome-
try. However, since the BIOS has to be used during startup, it is impor-
tant to know about the geometry the BIOS uses. The NetBSD kernel should
be on a part of the disk where it can be loaded using the BIOS, within
the limitations of the BIOS geometry. The install program will check
this for you, and will give you a chance to correct this if this is not
the case.
If you have not yet installed any other systems on the hard disk that you
plan to install NetBSD on, or if you plan to use the disk entirely for
NetBSD, you may wish to check your BIOS settings for the `Large' or `LBA'
modes, and activate them for the hard disk in question. While they are
not needed by NetBSD as such, doing so will remove the limitations men-
tioned above, and will avoid hassle should you wish to share the disk
with other systems. Do _n_o_t change these settings if you already have
data on the disk that you want to preserve!
In any case, it is wise to check your the BIOS settings for the hard disk
geometry before beginning the installation, and write them down. While
this should usually not be needed, it enables you to verify that the
install program determines these values correctly.
The geometry that the BIOS uses will be referred to as the _B_I_O_S _g_e_o_m_e_t_r_y,
the geometry that NetBSD uses is the _r_e_a_l _g_e_o_m_e_t_r_y.
ssyyssiinnsstt, the NetBSD installation program, will try to discover both the
real geometry and BIOS geometry.
It is _i_m_p_o_r_t_a_n_t that ssyyssiinnsstt know the proper BIOS geometry to be able to
get NetBSD to boot, regardless of where on your disk you put it. It is
less of a concern if the disk is going to be used entirely for NetBSD.
If you intend to have several OSes on your disk, this becomes a much
larger issue.

Using ssyyssiinnsstt, installing NetBSD is a relatively easy process. You
still should read this document and have it in hand when doing the
installation process. This document tries to be a good guideline
for the installation and as such covers many details for the sake of
completeness. Do not let this discourage you; the install program
is not hard to use.
2. _P_o_s_s_i_b_l_e _h_a_r_d_w_a_r_e _p_r_o_b_l_e_m_s
Should you encounter hardware problems during installation, try
rebooting after unplugging removable devices you don't need for
installation. Non-removable devices can be disabled with uusseerrccoonnff
(use bboooott --cc to enter it).
3. _G_e_n_e_r_a_l
The following is a walk-through of the steps you will take while
getting NetBSD installed on your hard disk. ssyyssiinnsstt is a menu
driven installation system that allows for some freedom in doing the
installation. Sometimes, questions will be asked and in many cases
the default answer will be displayed in brackets (``[ ]'') after the
question. If you wish to stop the installation, you may press
CONTROL-C at any time, but if you do, you'll have to begin the
installation process again from scratch by running the _/_s_y_s_i_n_s_t pro-
gram from the command prompt. It is not necessary to reboot.
4. _Q_u_i_c_k _i_n_s_t_a_l_l
First, let's describe a quick install. The other sections of this
document go into the installation procedure in more detail, but you
may find that you do not need this. If you want detailed instruc-
tions, skip to the next section. This section describes a basic
installation, using a CD-ROM install as an example.
++oo What you need.
-- The distribution sets (in this example, they are on CD).
-- Two 1.44 MB 3.5" floppy disks if the CD is not bootable or
if you cannot boot from CD.
-- A PC with a 386 or newer processor.
-- A CD-ROM drive (SCSI or ATAPI), a hard disk and a minimum of
4 MB of memory installed.
-- The hard disk should have at least 200 + _n megabytes of
space free, where _n is the number of megabytes of main mem-
ory in your system. If you wish to install the X Window
System as well, you will need at least 120 MB more.
++oo Creating the boot floppies. You can create the floppies needed
for installation under MS-DOS or Windows. Supposing your 1.44
MB floppy drive is drive A:, and your CD is drive E: do the fol-
lowing from an MS-DOS command prompt:
ee::
ccdd \\NNeettBBSSDD--44..00..11\\ii338866\\iinnssttaallllaattiioonn\\mmiisscc
rraawwrriittee
When asked for a source filename, answer
_._._\_f_l_o_p_p_y_\_b_o_o_t_1_._f_s
for the first diskette and
_._._\_f_l_o_p_p_y_\_b_o_o_t_2_._f_s
for the second diskette.
When asked for a destination drive answer `aa'.
++oo To create a bootfloppy under NetBSD or other UNIX-like system,
you would type something like:
# dddd iiff==......//bboooott11..ffss ooff==//ddeevv//rrffdd00aa bbss==1188kk
++oo The Quick Installation
-- Insert the first boot floppy you just created. Restart the
computer. When prompted, insert the second boot floppy.
After language selection, the main menu will be displayed.

-- If you wish, you can configure some network settings immedi-
ately by choosing the UUttiilliittyy mmeennuu and then CCoonnffiigguurree
nneettwwoorrkk. It isn't actually required at this point, but it
may be more convenient. Go back to the main menu.
-- Choose iinnssttaallll.
-- You will be guided through some steps regarding the setup of
your disk, and the selection of distributed components to
install. When in doubt, refer to the rest of this document
for details.
-- After your disk has been prepared, choose CCDD--RROOMM as the
medium. The default values for the path and device should
be ok.
-- After all the files have been unpacked, go back to the main
menu and select rreebboooott, after you have removed the boot-
floppy from the drive.
-- NetBSD will now boot. If you haven't already done so in
ssyyssiinnsstt, you should log in as root, and set a password for
that account. You are also advised to edit the file
_/_e_t_c_/_r_c_._c_o_n_f to match your system needs.
-- Your installation is now complete.
-- For configuring the X window system, if installed, see the
files in _/_u_s_r_/_X_1_1_R_6_/_l_i_b_/_X_1_1_/_d_o_c. Further information can be
found on hhttttpp::////wwwwww..xxffrreeee8866..oorrgg//.
5. _B_o_o_t_i_n_g _N_e_t_B_S_D
Boot your machine. The boot loader will start, and will print a
countdown and begin booting.
If the boot loader messages do not appear in a reasonable amount of
time, you either have a bad boot floppy or a hardware problem. Try
writing the install floppy image to a different disk, and using
that.
If that doesn't work, try booting after disabling your CPU's inter-
nal and external caches (if any). If it still doesn't work, NetBSD
probably can't be run on your hardware. This can probably be con-
sidered a bug, so you might want to report it. If you do, please
include as many details about your system configuration as you can.
It will take a while to load the kernel from the floppy, probably
around a minute or so, then, the kernel boot messages will be dis-
played. This may take a little while also, as NetBSD will be prob-
ing your system to discover which hardware devices are installed.
You may want to read the boot messages, to notice your disk's name
and geometry. Its name will be something like sd0 or wd0 and the
geometry will be printed on a line that begins with its name. As
mentioned above, you may need your disk's geometry when creating
NetBSD's partitions. You will also need to know the name, to tell
ssyyssiinnsstt on which disk to install. The most important thing to know
is that wd0 is NetBSD's name for your first IDE disk, wd1 the sec-
ond, etc. sd0 is your first SCSI disk, sd1 the second, etc.
Note that once the system has finished booting, you need not leave
the floppy in the disk drive.
Once NetBSD has booted and printed all the boot messages, you will
be presented with a welcome message and a main menu. It will also
include instructions for using the menus.
6. _N_e_t_w_o_r_k _c_o_n_f_i_g_u_r_a_t_i_o_n
If you will not use network operation during the installation, but
you do want your machine to be configured for networking once it is
installed, you should first go to the UUttiilliittyy mmeennuu, and select the
CCoonnffiigguurree nneettwwoorrkk option. If you only want to temporarily use net-
working during the installation, you can specify these parameters
later. If you are not using the Domain Name System (DNS), you can
give an empty response in reply to answers relating to this.
7. _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n _d_r_i_v_e _s_e_l_e_c_t_i_o_n _a_n_d _p_a_r_a_m_e_t_e_r_s
To start the installation, select IInnssttaallll NNeettBBSSDD ttoo hhaarrdd ddiisskk from
the main menu.
The first thing is to identify the disk on which you want to install
NetBSD. ssyyssiinnsstt will report a list of disks it finds and ask you
for your selection. Depending on how many disks are found, you may
get a different message. You should see disk names like wd0, wd1,
sd0 or sd1.
ssyyssiinnsstt next tries to figure out the real and BIOS geometry of your
disk. It will present you with the values it found, if any, and
will give you a chance to change them.
Next, depending on whether you are using a wd_X or sd_X disk, you will
either be asked for the type of disk (wd_X) you are using or you will
be asked if you want to specify a fake geometry for your SCSI disk
(sd_X). The types of disk are IDE, ST-506 or ESDI. If you're
installing on an ST-506 or ESDI drive, you'll be asked if your disk
supports automatic sector forwarding. If you are _s_u_r_e that it does,
reply affirmatively. Otherwise, the install program will automati-
cally reserve space for bad144 tables.
8. _P_a_r_t_i_t_i_o_n_i_n_g _t_h_e _d_i_s_k
++oo Which portion of the disk to use.
You will be asked if you want to use the entire disk or only
part of the disk. If you decide to use the entire disk for
NetBSD, it will be checked if there are already other systems
present on the disk, and you will be asked to confirm whether
you want to overwrite these.
If you want to use the entire disk for NetBSD, you can skip the fol-
lowing section and go to _E_d_i_t_i_n_g _t_h_e _N_e_t_B_S_D _d_i_s_k_l_a_b_e_l.
9. _E_d_i_t_i_n_g _t_h_e _M_a_s_t_e_r _B_o_o_t _R_e_c_o_r_d
First, you will be prompted to specify the units of size that you
want to express the sizes of the partitions in. You can either pick
megabytes, cylinders or sectors.
After this, you will be presented with the current values stored in
the MBR, and will be given the opportunity to change, create or
delete partitions. For each partition you can set the type, the
start and the size. Setting the type to uunnuusseedd will delete a parti-
tion. You can also mark a partition as active, meaning that this is
the one that the BIOS will start from at boot time.
Be sure to mark the partition you want to boot from as active!
After you are done editing the MBR, a sanity check will be done,
checking for partitions that overlap. Depending on the BIOS capa-
bilities of your machine and the parameters of the NetBSD partition
you have specified, you may also be asked if you want to install
newer bootcode in your MBR. If you have multiple operating systems
on the disk that you are installing on, you will also be given the
option to install a bootselector, that will allow you to pick the
operating system to start up when your computer is (re-)started.
If everything is ok, you can go on to the next step, editing the
NetBSD disklabel.
10. _E_d_i_t_i_n_g _t_h_e _N_e_t_B_S_D _d_i_s_k_l_a_b_e_l
The partition table of the NetBSD part of a disk is called a
_d_i_s_k_l_a_b_e_l. There are 4 layouts for the NetBSD part of the disk that
you can pick from: SSttaannddaarrdd,, SSttaannddaarrdd wwiitthh XX,, CCuussttoomm and UUssee
EExxiissttiinngg. The first two use a set of default values (that you can
change) suitable for a normal installation, possibly including X.
With the CCuussttoomm option you can specify everything yourself. The
last option uses the partition info already present on the disk.
You will be presented with the current layout of the NetBSD diskla-
bel, and given a chance to change it. For each partition, you can
set the type, offset and size, block and fragment size, and the
mount point. The type that NetBSD uses for normal file storage is
called 44..22BBSSDD. A swap partition has a special type called sswwaapp.
You can also specify a partition as type MMSSDDOOSS. This is useful if
you share the disk with MS-DOS or Windows; NetBSD is able to access
the files on these partitions. You can use the values from the MBR
for the MS-DOS part of the disk to specify the partition of type
MMSSDDOOSS (you don't have to do this now, you can always re-edit the
disklabel to add this once you have installed NetBSD, or use
mbrlabel(8) to help you updating your disklabel with data from the
MBR).
Some partitions in the disklabel have a fixed purpose.
a Root partition (_/)
b Swap partition.
c The NetBSD portion of the disk.
d The entire disk.
e-p Available for other use. Traditionally, e is the par-
tition mounted on _/_u_s_r, but this is historical prac-
tice and not a fixed value.
You will then be asked to name your disk's disklabel. The default
response will be ok for most purposes. If you choose to name it
something different, make sure the name is a single word and con-
tains no special characters. You don't need to remember this name.
11. _P_r_e_p_a_r_i_n_g _y_o_u_r _h_a_r_d _d_i_s_k
_Y_o_u _a_r_e _n_o_w _a_t _t_h_e _p_o_i_n_t _o_f _n_o _r_e_t_u_r_n. Nothing has been written to
your disk yet, but if you confirm that you want to install NetBSD,
your hard drive will be modified. If you are sure you want to pro-
ceed, enter yes at the prompt.
The install program will now label your disk and make the file sys-
tems you specified. The file systems will be initialized to contain
NetBSD bootstrapping binaries and configuration files. You will see
messages on your screen from the various NetBSD disk preparation
tools that are running. There should be no errors in this section
of the installation. If there are, restart from the beginning of
the installation process. Otherwise, you can continue the installa-
tion program after pressing the return key.
12. _G_e_t_t_i_n_g _t_h_e _d_i_s_t_r_i_b_u_t_i_o_n _s_e_t_s
The NetBSD distribution consists of a number of _s_e_t_s, that come in
the form of gzipped tarfiles. A few sets must be installed for a
working system, others are optional. At this point of the installa-
tion, you will be presented with a menu which enables you to choose
from one of the following methods of installing the sets. Some of
these methods will first load the sets on your hard disk, others
will extract the sets directly.
For all these methods, the first step is making the sets available
for extraction, and then do the actual installation. The sets can
be made available in a few different ways. The following sections
describe each of those methods. After reading the one about the
method you will be using, you can continue to the section labeled
`Extracting the distribution sets'.
13. _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n _u_s_i_n_g _f_t_p
To be able to install using ftp, you first need to configure your
network setup, if you haven't already at the start of the install
procedure. ssyyssiinnsstt will do this for you, asking you if you want to
use DHCP, and if not to provide data like IP address, hostname, etc.
If you do not have name service set up for the machine that you are
installing on, you can just press RETURN in answer to these ques-
tions, and DNS will not be used.
You will also be asked to specify the host that you want to transfer
the sets from, the directory on that host, the account name and
password used to log into that host using ftp, and optionally a
proxy server to use. If you did not set up DNS when answering the
questions to configure networking, you will need to specify an IP
address instead of a hostname for the ftp server.
ssyyssiinnsstt will proceed to transfer all the default set files from the
remote site to your hard disk.
14. _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n _u_s_i_n_g _N_F_S
To be able to install using NFS, you first need to configure your
network setup, if you haven't already at the start of the install
procedure. ssyyssiinnsstt will do this for you, asking you if you want to
use DHCP, and if not to provide data like IP address, hostname, etc.
If you do not have name service set up for the machine that you are
installing on, you can just press RETURN in answer to these ques-
tions, and DNS will not be used.
You will also be asked to specify the host that you want to transfer
the sets from, and the directory on that host that the files are in.
This directory should be mountable by the machine you are installing
on, i.e. correctly exported to your machine.
If you did not set up DNS when answering the questions to configure
networking, you will need to specify an IP address instead of a
hostname for the NFS server.
15. _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n _f_r_o_m _C_D_-_R_O_M
When installing from a CD-ROM, you will be asked to specify the
device name for your CD-ROM player (usually cd0), and the directory
name on the CD-ROM where the distribution files are.
ssyyssiinnsstt will then check if the files are indeed available in the
specified location, and proceed to the actual extraction of the
sets.
16. _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n _f_r_o_m _a _f_l_o_p_p_y _s_e_t
Because the installation sets are too big to fit on one floppy, the
floppies are expected to be filled with the split set files. The
floppies are expected to be in MS-DOS format. You will be asked for
a directory where the sets should be reassembled. Then you will be
prompted to insert the floppies containing the split sets. This
process will continue until all the sets have been loaded from
floppy.
17. _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n _f_r_o_m _a_n _u_n_m_o_u_n_t_e_d _f_i_l_e _s_y_s_t_e_m
In order to install from a local file system, you will need to spec-
ify the device that the file system resides on (for example sd1e)
the type of the file system, and the directory on the specified file
system where the sets are located. ssyyssiinnsstt will then check if it
can indeed access the sets at that location.
18. _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n _f_r_o_m _a _l_o_c_a_l _d_i_r_e_c_t_o_r_y
This option assumes that you have already done some preparation
yourself. The sets should be located in a directory on a file sys-
tem that is already accessible. ssyyssiinnsstt will ask you for the name
of this directory.
19. _E_x_t_r_a_c_t_i_n_g _t_h_e _d_i_s_t_r_i_b_u_t_i_o_n _s_e_t_s
After the install sets containing the NetBSD distribution have been
made available, you can either extract all the sets (a full instal-
lation), or only extract sets that you have selected. In the latter
case, you will be shown the currently selected sets, and given the
opportunity to select the sets you want. Some sets always need to
be installed (kkeerrnn,, bbaassee,, and eettcc) they will not be shown in this
selection menu.
Before extraction begins, you can elect to watch the files being
extracted; the name of each file that is extracted will be shown.
This can slow down the installation process considerably, especially
on machines with slow graphics consoles or serial consoles. Alter-
natively, you will be asked if you wish to have a progress bar.
This is the preferred option as it shows progress without signifi-
cantly slowing down the installation process.
After all the files have been extracted, all the necessary device
node files will be created. If you have already configured network-
ing, you will be asked if you want to use this configuration for
normal operation. If so, these values will be installed in the net-
work configuration files. The next menu will allow you to select
the time zone that you're in, to make sure your clock has the right
offset from UTC. Finally you will be asked to select a password
encryption algorithm and can then set a password for the "root"
account, to prevent the machine coming up without access restric-
tions.
20. _F_i_n_a_l_i_z_i_n_g _y_o_u_r _i_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n
Congratulations, you have successfully installed NetBSD 4.0.1. You
can now reboot the machine, and boot NetBSD from hard disk.
PPoosstt iinnssttaallllaattiioonn sstteeppss
Once you've got the operating system running, there are a few things you
need to do in order to bring the system into a properly configured state,
with the most important ones described below.
1. Configuring _/_e_t_c_/_r_c_._c_o_n_f
If you or the installation software haven't done any configuration
of _/_e_t_c_/_r_c_._c_o_n_f (ssyyssiinnsstt usually will), the system will drop you
into single user mode on first reboot with the message
/etc/rc.conf is not configured. Multiuser boot aborted.
and with the root file system (_/) mounted read-only. When the sys-
tem asks you to choose a shell, simply press RETURN to get to a
_/_b_i_n_/_s_h prompt. If you are asked for a terminal type, respond with
vvtt222200 (or whatever is appropriate for your terminal type) and press
RETURN. You may need to type one of the following commands to get
your delete key to work properly, depending on your keyboard:
# ssttttyy eerraassee ''^^hh''
# ssttttyy eerraassee ''^^??''
At this point, you need to configure at least one file in the _/_e_t_c
directory. You will need to mount your root file system read/write
with:
# //ssbbiinn//mmoouunntt --uu --ww //
Change to the _/_e_t_c directory and take a look at the _/_e_t_c_/_r_c_._c_o_n_f
file. Modify it to your tastes, making sure that you set
rc_configured=YES so that your changes will be enabled and a multi-
user boot can proceed. Default values for the various programs can
be found in _/_e_t_c_/_d_e_f_a_u_l_t_s_/_r_c_._c_o_n_f, where some in-line documentation
may be found. More complete documentation can be found in
rc.conf(5).
If your _/_u_s_r directory is on a separate partition and you do not
know how to use eedd, you will have to mount your _/_u_s_r partition to
gain access to eexx or vvii. Do the following:
# mmoouunntt //uussrr
# eexxppoorrtt TTEERRMM==vvtt222200
If you have _/_v_a_r on a separate partition, you need to repeat that
step for it. After that, you can edit _/_e_t_c_/_r_c_._c_o_n_f with vi(1).
When you have finished, type eexxiitt at the prompt to leave the single-
user shell and continue with the multi-user boot.
Other values that need to be set in _/_e_t_c_/_r_c_._c_o_n_f for a networked
environment are _h_o_s_t_n_a_m_e and possibly _d_e_f_a_u_l_t_r_o_u_t_e, furthermore add
an _i_f_c_o_n_f_i_g___i_n_t for your <int> network interface, along the lines of
ifconfig_de0="inet 123.45.67.89 netmask 255.255.255.0"
or, if you have _m_y_n_a_m_e_._m_y_._d_o_m in _/_e_t_c_/_h_o_s_t_s:
ifconfig_de0="inet myname.my.dom netmask 255.255.255.0"
To enable proper hostname resolution, you will also want to add an
_/_e_t_c_/_r_e_s_o_l_v_._c_o_n_f file or (if you are feeling a little more adventur-
ous) run named(8). See resolv.conf(5) or named(8) for more informa-
tion. Instead of manually configuring network and naming service,
DHCP can be used by setting dhclient=YES in _/_e_t_c_/_r_c_._c_o_n_f.
Other files in _/_e_t_c that may require modification or setting up
include _/_e_t_c_/_m_a_i_l_e_r_._c_o_n_f, _/_e_t_c_/_n_s_s_w_i_t_c_h_._c_o_n_f, and _/_e_t_c_/_w_s_c_o_n_s_._c_o_n_f.
2. Logging in
After reboot, you can log in as root at the login prompt. Unless
you've set a password in ssyyssiinnsstt, there is no initial password. If
you're using the machine in a networked environment, you should cre-
ate an account for yourself (see below) and protect it and the
``root'' account with good passwords. By default, root login from
the network is disabled (even via ssh(1)). One way to become root
over the network is to log in as a different user that belongs to
group ``wheel'' (see group(5)) and use su(1) to become root.
Unless you have connected an unusual terminal device as the console
you can just press RETURN when it prompts for Terminal type? [...].
3. Adding accounts
Use the useradd(8) command to add accounts to your system. Do not
edit _/_e_t_c_/_p_a_s_s_w_d directly! See vipw(8) and pwd_mkdb(8) if you want
to edit the password database.
4. The X Window System
If you have installed the X Window System, look at the files in
_/_u_s_r_/_X_1_1_R_6_/_l_i_b_/_X_1_1_/_d_o_c for information.
You will need to set up a configuration file, see
_/_u_s_r_/_X_1_1_R_6_/_l_i_b_/_X_1_1_/_X_F_8_6_C_o_n_f_i_g_._e_g for an example. The xf86cfg(1) and
xf86config(1) utilities can interactively create a first version of
such a configuration file for you. See hhttttpp::////wwwwww..xxffrreeee8866..oorrgg// and
the XFree86 manual page for more information.
Don't forget to add _/_u_s_r_/_X_1_1_R_6_/_b_i_n to your path in your shell's dot
file so that you have access to the X binaries.
5. Installing third party packages
If you wish to install any of the software freely available for
UNIX-like systems you are strongly advised to first check the NetBSD
package system. This automatically handles any changes necessary to
make the software run on NetBSD, retrieval and installation of any
other packages on which the software may depend, and simplifies
installation (and deinstallation), both from source and precompiled
binaries.
++oo More information on the package system is at
hhttttpp::////wwwwww..NNeettBBSSDD..oorrgg//ddooccss//ssooffttwwaarree//ppaacckkaaggeess..hhttmmll
++oo A list of available packages suitable for browsing is at
ffttpp::////ffttpp..NNeettBBSSDD..oorrgg//ppuubb//NNeettBBSSDD//ppaacckkaaggeess//ppkkggssrrcc//RREEAADDMMEE..hhttmmll
++oo Precompiled binaries can be found at
ffttpp::////ffttpp..NNeettBBSSDD..oorrgg//ppuubb//ppkkggssrrcc//ppaacckkaaggeess//NNeettBBSSDD//
usually in the _i_3_8_6_/_4_._0_/_A_l_l subdir. You can install them with
the following commands under sh(1):
## PPKKGG__PPAATTHH==ffttpp::////ffttpp..NNeettBBSSDD..oorrgg//ppuubb//ppkkggssrrcc//ppaacckkaaggeess//NNeettBBSSDD//ii338866//44..00//AAllll
## eexxppoorrtt PPKKGG__PPAATTHH
## ppkkgg__aadddd --vv ttccsshh
## ppkkgg__aadddd --vv bbaasshh
## ppkkgg__aadddd --vv ppeerrll
## ppkkgg__aadddd --vv aappaacchhee
## ppkkgg__aadddd --vv kkddee
## ppkkgg__aadddd --vv ffiirreeffooxx
...
If you are using csh(1) then replace the first two lines with
the following:

_N_o_t_e_: Some mirror sites don't mirror _/_p_u_b_/_p_k_g_s_r_c directory. If
you would like to use such mirrors, you could also try
the
_/_p_u_b_/_N_e_t_B_S_D_/_p_a_c_k_a_g_e_s_/_c_u_r_r_e_n_t_-_p_a_c_k_a_g_e_s_/_N_e_t_B_S_D_/_i_3_8_6_/_4_._0_/_A_l_l
directory which may have the same contents.
The above commands will install the Tenex-csh and Bourne Again
shell, the Perl programming language, Apache web server, KDE
desktop environment and the Firefox web browser as well as all
the packages they depend on.
_N_o_t_e_: In some case the pkg_add(1) command will complain about a
version mismatch of packages with a message like the fol-
lowing:
Warning: package `foo' was built for a different
version of the OS:
NetBSD/i386 4.0 (pkg) vs. NetBSD/i386 4.0.1 (this
host),
This warning would be harmless if the formal major
release numbers are same between the pkg and your host.
Please refer ``the NetBSD release glossary and graphs'':
hhttttpp::////wwwwww..NNeettBBSSDD..oorrgg//rreelleeaasseess//rreelleeaassee--mmaapp..hhttmmll
for details of the release numbering scheme of NetBSD.
++oo Package sources for compiling packages on your own can be
obtained by retrieving the file
ffttpp::////ffttpp..NNeettBBSSDD..oorrgg//ppuubb//NNeettBBSSDD//ppaacckkaaggeess//ppkkggssrrcc..ttaarr..ggzz
They are typically extracted into _/_u_s_r_/_p_k_g_s_r_c (though other
locations work fine), with the commands:
# mmkkddiirr //uussrr//ppkkggssrrcc
# ccdd //uussrr//ppkkggssrrcc
# ttaarr --zzxxppff ppkkggssrrcc..ttaarr..ggzz
After extracting, see the _R_E_A_D_M_E and _d_o_c_/_p_k_g_s_r_c_._t_x_t files in the
extraction directory (e.g. _/_u_s_r_/_p_k_g_s_r_c_/_R_E_A_D_M_E) for more infor-
mation.
6. Misc
++oo Edit _/_e_t_c_/_m_a_i_l_/_a_l_i_a_s_e_s to forward root mail to the right place.
Don't forget to run newaliases(1) afterwards.
++oo The _/_e_t_c_/_p_o_s_t_f_i_x_/_m_a_i_n_._c_f file will almost definitely need to be
adjusted. If you prefer a different MTA, then install it using
the NetBSD package system or by hand and adjust
_/_e_t_c_/_m_a_i_l_e_r_._c_o_n_f.
++oo Edit _/_e_t_c_/_r_c_._l_o_c_a_l to run any local daemons you use.
++oo Many of the _/_e_t_c files are documented in section 5 of the man-
ual; so just invoking
# mmaann 55 _f_i_l_e_n_a_m_e
is likely to give you more information on these files.

The upgrade to NetBSD 4.0.1 is a binary upgrade; it can be quite diffi-
cult to update the system from an earlier version by recompiling from
source, primarily due to interdependencies in the various components.
To do the upgrade, you must have the boot floppy set available. You must
also have at least the bbaassee and kkeerrnn binary distribution sets available,
so that you can upgrade with them, using one of the upgrade methods
described above. Finally, you must have sufficient disk space available
to install the new binaries. Since files already installed on the system
are overwritten in place, you only need additional free space for files
which weren't previously installed or to account for growth of the sets
between releases. If you have a few megabytes free on each of your root
(_/) and _/_u_s_r partitions, you should have enough space.
Since upgrading involves replacing the kernel, the boot blocks on your
NetBSD partition, and most of the system binaries, it has the potential
to cause data loss. You are strongly advised to _b_a_c_k _u_p any important
data on the NetBSD partition or on another operating system's partition
on your disk before beginning the upgrade process.
The upgrade procedure using the ssyyssiinnsstt tool is similar to an installa-
tion, but without the hard disk partitioning. ssyyssiinnsstt will attempt to
merge the settings stored in your _/_e_t_c directory with the new version of
NetBSD. Getting the binary sets is done in the same manner as the
installation procedure; refer to the installation part of the document
for how to do this. Also, some sanity checks are done, i.e. file sys-
tems are checked before unpacking the sets.
After a new kernel has been copied to your hard disk, your machine is a
complete NetBSD 4.0.1 system. However, that doesn't mean that you're
finished with the upgrade process. You will probably want to update the
set of device nodes you have in _/_d_e_v. If you've changed the contents of
_/_d_e_v by hand, you will need to be careful about this, but if not, you can
just cd into _/_d_e_v, and run the command:
# sshh MMAAKKEEDDEEVV aallll
Finally, you will want to delete old binaries that were part of the ver-
sion of NetBSD that you upgraded from and have since been removed from
the NetBSD distribution.
NetBSD/i386 has switched its executable format from the old a.out format
to ELF, the now more commonly used and supported format. Your old bina-
ries will continue to work just fine. The installation procedure will
try to take the necessary steps to accomplish this. The most important
step is to move the old a.out shared libraries in _/_u_s_r_/_l_i_b and
_/_u_s_r_/_X_1_1_R_6_/_l_i_b (if X was installed) to _/_e_m_u_l_/_a_o_u_t, where they will be
automatically found if an older a.out binary is executed. ssyyssiinnsstt will
use an existing _/_e_m_u_l and / or _/_e_m_u_l_/_a_o_u_t directory if available, and
will create it (as a symbolic link to _/_u_s_r_/_a_o_u_t) if necessary.
If you already had a _/_e_m_u_l directory, or a symbolic link by that name,
ssyyssiinnsstt should rename it and tell you about it.

Users upgrading from previous versions of NetBSD may wish to bear the
following problems and compatibility issues in mind when upgrading to
NetBSD 4.0.1.
N.B. when using ssyyssiinnsstt for upgrading, it will automatically invoke
postinstall fix
and thus all issues that are fixed by ppoossttiinnssttaallll by default (see below)
will be handled.
_I_s_s_u_e_s _a_f_f_e_c_t_i_n_g _a_n _u_p_g_r_a_d_e _f_r_o_m _N_e_t_B_S_D _2_._1 _a_n_d _o_l_d_e_r _r_e_l_e_a_s_e_s_.
See the section below on upgrading from NetBSD 3.x as well.
It is vveerryy iimmppoorrttaanntt that you populate the directory _/_e_t_c_/_p_a_m_._d with
appropriate configuration files for Pluggable Authentication Modules
(PAM) because you will not be able to login any more otherwise. Using
_p_o_s_t_i_n_s_t_a_l_l as described below will take care of this. Please refer to
hhttttpp::////wwwwww..NNeettBBSSDD..oorrgg//ddooccss//gguuiiddee//eenn//cchhaapp--ppaamm..hhttmmll
for documentation about PAM.
The following issues can generally be resolved by running _p_o_s_t_i_n_s_t_a_l_l
with the eettcc set :
postinstall -s /path/to/etc.tgz check
postinstall -s /path/to/etc.tgz fix
Issues fixed by _p_o_s_t_i_n_s_t_a_l_l:
++oo Various files in _/_e_t_c need upgrading. These include:

The following issues need to be resolved manually:
++oo The users `_proxy', `_rwhod', and `_sdpd' and the groups
`_proxy', `_rwhod' and `_sdpd' need to be created and the user
`uucp' needs to be updated.
++oo A number of things have been removed from the NetBSD 4.0
release including: the evbsh5 port, the Fortran 77 compiler
(g77), NETCCITT, NETNS, Sendmail, Sushi, UUCP, and Vinum. If
you were using any of these, then please see the "Components
removed from NetBSD" section near the beginning of this docu-
ment.
++oo The replacement of Sendmail by Postfix can be handled automati-
cally by _p_o_s_t_i_n_s_t_a_l_l but it is not done by default. If you
want to transition to Postfix, the command
postinstall -s /path/to/etc.tgz fix mailerconf
will update your _/_e_t_c_/_m_a_i_l_e_r_._c_o_n_f file to use Postfix as the
MTA. When using ssyyssiinnsstt to upgrade the system, it will ask if
you want this to be done.
Note that if you have a customized Sendmail setup, you need to
set up Postfix in an equivalent way; there is no tool for auto-
matic conversion of Sendmail configuration to a Postfix one.
Postfix will be started up automatically when the system boots.
You may see messages like "$sendmail is not set properly" at
boot. You can suppress them by removing _/_e_t_c_/_r_c_._d_/_s_e_n_d_m_a_i_l and
_/_e_t_c_/_r_c_._d_/_s_m_m_s_p. Those files and other parts of sendmail con-
figuration like files under _/_u_s_r_/_s_h_a_r_e_/_s_e_n_d_m_a_i_l are not removed
by default while upgrading for those who want to continue using
sendmail from outside the base system. If you want to delete
them, _p_o_s_t_i_n_s_t_a_l_l can be used:
postinstall -s /path/to/etc.tgz fix sendmail
IIssssuueess wwiitthh GGDDBB 66..55
Some architectures (arm, i386, powerpc and sparc64) have switched to a
newer gdb version (6.5) in this release. Unfortunately support for
debugging programs using the SA (scheduler activation) based thread
library, is incomplete in this gdb version. Furthermore kernel crash-
dumps can not be debugged due to a missing identification in the kernel
binaries.
Both issues have been addressed on the wrstuden-fixsa branch, but did not
make it into the NetBSD release. Both will be fixed in the next patch
release.

Documentation is available if you first install the manual distribution
set. Traditionally, the ``man pages'' (documentation) are denoted by
`name(section)'. Some examples of this are
++oo intro(1),
++oo man(1),
++oo apropros(1),
++oo passwd(1), and
++oo passwd(5).
The section numbers group the topics into several categories, but three
are of primary interest: user commands are in section 1, file formats are
in section 5, and administrative information is in section 8.
The _m_a_n command is used to view the documentation on a topic, and is
started by entering mmaann [_s_e_c_t_i_o_n] _t_o_p_i_c. The brackets [] around the sec-
tion should not be entered, but rather indicate that the section is
optional. If you don't ask for a particular section, the topic with the
lowest numbered section name will be displayed. For instance, after log-
ging in, enter
# mmaann ppaasssswwdd
to read the documentation for passwd(1). To view the documentation for
passwd(5), enter
# mmaann 55 ppaasssswwdd
instead.
If you are unsure of what man page you are looking for, enter
# aapprrooppooss _s_u_b_j_e_c_t_-_w_o_r_d
where _s_u_b_j_e_c_t_-_w_o_r_d is your topic of interest; a list of possibly related
man pages will be displayed.

If you've got something to say, do so! We'd like your input. There are
various mailing lists available via the mailing list server at
_m_a_j_o_r_d_o_m_o_@_N_e_t_B_S_D_._o_r_g. To get help on using the mailing list server, send
mail to that address with an empty body, and it will reply with instruc-
tions.
There are various mailing lists set up to deal with comments and ques-
tions about this release. Please send comments to:
_n_e_t_b_s_d_-_c_o_m_m_e_n_t_s_@_N_e_t_B_S_D_._o_r_g.
To report bugs, use the send-pr(1) command shipped with NetBSD, and fill
in as much information about the problem as you can. Good bug reports
include lots of details. Additionally, bug reports can be sent by mail
to: _n_e_t_b_s_d_-_b_u_g_s_@_N_e_t_B_S_D_._o_r_g.
Use of send-pr(1) is encouraged, however, because bugs reported with it
are entered into the NetBSD bugs database, and thus can't slip through
the cracks.
There are also port-specific mailing lists, to discuss aspects of each
port of NetBSD. Use majordomo to find their addresses, or visit
hhttttpp::////wwwwww..NNeettBBSSDD..oorrgg//mmaaiilliinngglliissttss//.
If you're interested in doing a serious amount of work on a specific
port, you probably should contact the `owner' of that port (listed
below).
If you'd like to help with this effort, and have an idea as to how you
could be useful, send us mail or subscribe to: _n_e_t_b_s_d_-_u_s_e_r_s_@_N_e_t_B_S_D_._o_r_g.
As a favor, please avoid mailing huge documents or files to these mailing
lists. Instead, put the material you would have sent up for FTP or WWW
somewhere, then mail the appropriate list about it, or, if you'd rather
not do that, mail the list saying you'll send the data to those who want
it.
