It is available in four different formats titled INSTALL.ext, where .ext is one of .ps, .html, .more, or .txt: .ps PostScript. .html Standard Internet HTML. .more The enhanced text format used on UNIX-like systems by the more(1) and less(1) pager util- ity programs. This is the format in which the on-line man pages are generally presented. .txt Plain old ASCII. You are reading the ASCII version. Quick install notes for the impatient This section contains some brief notes describing what you need to install NetBSD 10.0_RC3 on a machine of the sparc architecture. o Fetch files needed to install NetBSD. Fetch a CD image, NetBSD-10.0_RC3-sparc.iso. You need the CD to boot your system. Alternatively, you may netboot the installation kernel. This process is covered below, in detail. o The actual binary distribution is in the sparc/binary/sets/ directory. When you boot the install CD-ROM, the installation program can fetch these files for you (using, e.g., ftp) if you have a network connec- tion. There are several other methods to get the binary sets onto your machine. You will at a minimum need the following sets: kern-GENERIC.tgz, base.tgz and etc.tgz. In a typical workstation installation you will probably want all the installation sets. o Make sure your sparc's CD-ROM drive is bootable. Burn the CD. The media you just prepared will be used to boot the installation kernel, which contains all the tools required to install NetBSD. o You will need to get to the OpenBoot PROM ``ok'' prompt. After your system first powers on and displays some ini- tial information, press the STOP-A keys, or send a BREAK if you're on a serial console. At the ``ok'' prompt, type the command to boot your system into NetBSD. The command to boot from CD is one of the following commands (depending on your model): ``b sd(,30,)'', ``boot sd(,30,)'', or ``boot cdrom''. o For third-party programs which are not part of the base NetBSD distribution, you will want to explore the pkgsrc package management system, which contains thousands of third-party software applications. What is NetBSD? The NetBSD Operating System is a fully functional open- source operating system derived from the University of Cali- fornia, Berkeley Networking Release 2 (Net/2), 4.4BSD-Lite, and 4.4BSD-Lite2 sources. NetBSD runs on many different different system architectures (ports) across a variety of distinct CPU families, and is being ported to more. The NetBSD 10.0_RC3 release contains complete binary releases for most of these system architectures, with preliminary support for the others included in source form. Please see the NetBSD website: https://www.NetBSD.org/ for information on them. NetBSD is a completely integrated system. In addition to its highly portable, high performance kernel, NetBSD fea- tures a complete set of user utilities, compilers for sev- eral 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 commu- nity. Without the unique cooperation and coordination the net makes possible, NetBSD would not exist. Dedication NetBSD 10.0 is dedicated to the memory of Ryo SHIMIZU, who passed away in May 2023. Ryo's technical contributions are too many to list here in full. He was a long term contributor and worked on a lot of low-level code over various architectures, from x68k to aarch64. He also worked on various out-of-tree NetBSD items, like the IIJ git repository conversion. The project lost an excellent technical contributor and many of us a good friend. Changes Between The NetBSD 9 and 10 Releases The NetBSD 10.0_RC3 release provides many significant changes, including support for many new devices, hundreds of bug fixes, new and updated kernel subsystems, and numerous userland enhancements. The result of these improvements is a stable operating system fit for production use that rivals most commercially available systems. One important new feature in this release is the support for extended attributes and access controll lists on FFS file systems. For new installations the installer will default to disable this features, so the file system is compatible with older NetBSD releases (before 10), and allow other operating sys- tems to mount this file systems at least in read-only mode. If you want a new installed file system to support extended attributes, change the file system type from ``FFSv2'' to ``FFSv2ea'' in the partitioning menu. You can also convert file systems later, using the fsck_ffs(8) utility. More details are available in this guide: https://wiki.netbsd.org/tutorials/acls_and_extended_attributes_on_ffs. If you are upgrading from a version of NetBSD -current please also check the Compatibility Issues With Previous NetBSD Releases. It is impossible to completely summarize the massive development that went into the NetBSD 10.0_RC3 release. The complete list of changes can be found in the following files: CHANGES: https://cdn.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-10.0_RC3/CHANGES CHANGES-10.0: https://cdn.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-10.0_RC3/CHANGES-10.0 files in the top level directory of the NetBSD 10.0 release tree. Features to be removed in a later release The following features are to be removed from NetBSD in the future: o groff(1). Man pages are now handled with mandoc(1), and groff(1) can still be found in pkgsrc as textproc/groff. o pf(4). This packet filter is obsolete and unmain- tained in NetBSD. It will be eventually removed due to possible long-standing security issues and lack of multiprocessor support. New installations should use npf(7). The NetBSD Foundation The NetBSD Foundation is a tax exempt, not-for-profit 501(c)(3) corporation that devotes itself to the traditional goals and spirit of the NetBSD Project and owns the trade- mark of the word ``NetBSD''. It supports the design, devel- opment, and adoption of NetBSD worldwide.

Depending on your system, these may be bootable. source/ Source distribution sets; see below. In addition to the files and directories listed above, there is one directory per architecture, for each of the architec- tures for which NetBSD 10.0_RC3 has a binary distribution. The source distribution sets can be found in subdirectories of the source subdirectory of the distribution tree. They contain the complete sources to the system. The source dis- tribution sets are as follows: gnusrc This set contains the ``gnu'' sources, including the source for the compiler, assembler, groff, and the other GNU utilities in the binary distribution sets. sharesrc This set contains the ``share'' sources, which include the sources for the man pages not associ- ated with any particular program; the sources for the typesettable document set; the dictionaries; and more. src This set contains all of the base NetBSD 10.0_RC3 sources which are not in gnusrc, sharesrc, or syssrc. syssrc This set contains the sources to the NetBSD 10.0_RC3 kernel for all architectures as well as the config(1) utility. xsrc This set contains the sources to the X Window Sys- tem. All the above source sets are located in the source/sets subdirectory of the distribution tree. The source sets are distributed as compressed tar files. Except for the pkgsrc set, which is traditionally unpacked into /usr/pkgsrc, all sets may be unpacked into /usr/src with the command: # cd / ; tar -zxpf set_name.tgz In each of the source distribution set directories, there are files which contain the checksums of the files in the directory: MD5 MD5 digests in the format produced by the com- mand: cksum -a MD5 file. SHA512 SHA512 digests in the format produced by the command: cksum -a SHA512 file. The SHA512 digest is safer, but MD5 checksums are provided so that a wider range of operating systems can check the integrity of the release files. NetBSD/sparc subdirectory structure The sparc-specific portion of the NetBSD 10.0_RC3 release is found in the sparc subdirectory of the distribution: .../NetBSD-10.0_RC3/sparc/. It contains the following files and directories: INSTALL.html INSTALL.ps INSTALL.txt INSTALL.more Installation notes in various file formats, including this file. The .more file contains underlined text using the more(1) conventions for indicating italic and bold display. binary/ kernel/ netbsd-GENERIC.gz A gzipped NetBSD kernel containing code for every- thing supported in this release. netbsd-GENERIC.MP.gz A gzipped NetBSD kernel containing code for every- thing supported in this release.

Binary distribution sets The NetBSD sparc binary distribution sets contain the bina- ries which comprise the NetBSD 10.0_RC3 release for sparc. The binary distribution sets can be found in the sparc/binary/sets subdirectory of the NetBSD 10.0_RC3 dis- tribution tree, and are as follows: base The NetBSD 10.0_RC3 sparc base binary distribution. You must install this distribution set. It con- tains the base NetBSD utilities that are necessary for the system to run and be minimally functional. comp Things needed for compiling programs. This set includes the system include files (/usr/include) and the various system libraries (except the shared libraries, which are included as part of the base set). This set also includes the manual pages for all of the utilities it contains, as well as the system call and library manual pages. debug This distribution set contains debug information for all base system utilities. It is useful when reporting issues with binaries or during develop- ment. This set is huge, if the target disk is small, do not install it. etc This distribution set contains the system configu- ration files that reside in /etc and in several other places. This set must be installed if you are installing the system from scratch, but should not be used if you are upgrading. games This set includes the games and their manual pages. kern-GENERIC This set contains a NetBSD/sparc 10.0_RC3 GENERIC kernel named /netbsd. You must install this dis- tribution set. kern-GENERIC.MP This set contains a NetBSD/sparc 10.0_RC3 GENERIC.MP kernel, which will use multiple proces- sors (if present), named /netbsd. kern-GENERIC_SCSI3 This set contains a NetBSD/sparc 10.0_RC3 GENERIC_SCSI3 kernel, which will set SCSI ID 3 to sd0, named /netbsd. kern-GENERIC_SUN4U This set contains a NetBSD/sparc 10.0_RC3 GENERIC_SUN4U kernel, which supports only Ultra- SPARC systems in 32 bit mode, named /netbsd. kern-KRUPS This set contains a NetBSD/sparc 10.0_RC3 KRUPS kernel, which supports the JavaStation-NC, named /netbsd. kern-MRCOFFEE This set contains a NetBSD/sparc 10.0_RC3 MRCOFFE kernel, which which supports the OpenBOOT PROM 2 JavaStation-1, named /netbsd. kern-MRCOFFEE_OFW This set contains a NetBSD/sparc 10.0_RC3 MRCOFFE_OFW kernel, which which supports the Open- Firmware JavaStation-1, named /netbsd. man This set includes all of the manual pages for the binaries and other software contained in the base set. Note that it does not include any of the man- ual pages that are included in the other sets. misc This set includes the system dictionaries, the typesettable document set, and other files from /usr/share. modules This set includes kernel modules to add functional- ity to a running system. rescue This set includes the statically linked emergency recover binaries installed in /rescue. text This set includes NetBSD's text processing tools, including groff(1), all related programs, and their manual pages. NetBSD maintains its own set of sources for the X Window System in order to assure tight integration and compatibil- ity. These sources are based on X.Org. Binary sets for the X Window System are distributed with NetBSD. The sets are: xbase The basic files needed for a complete X client environment. This does not include the X servers. xcomp The extra libraries and include files needed to compile X source code. xdebug This distribution set contains debug information for all X11 binaries. It is useful when reporting issues with these binaries or during development. This set is huge, if the target disk is small, do not install it. xfont Fonts needed by the X server and by X clients. xetc Configuration files for X which could be locally modified. xserver The X server. This includes Xsun, Xsun24, XsunMono and Xvfb servers with man pages. The sparc binary distribution sets are distributed as gzipped tar files named with the extension .tgz, e.g. base.tgz. 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 below the current directory. Therefore, if you want to extract the binaries into your system, i.e. replace the system binaries with them, you have to run the tar -xzpf command from the root directory ( / ) of your system. Note: The distribution cannot be extracted using the SunOS tar program Note: Each directory in the sparc binary distribution also has its own checksum files, just as the source dis- tribution does. NetBSD/sparc System Requirements and Supported Devices The minimum configuration requires 4 MB of RAM and 140 MB of disk space. To install the entire system requires consider- ably more space, and more RAM to achieve reasonable perfor- mance. NetBSD with 4 MB of RAM feels like Solaris with 4 MB of RAM -- slow. Note that until you have around 16 MB of RAM, getting more RAM is more important than getting a faster CPU.

The steps for the various media are outlined below. CD-ROM / DVD / USB stick Find out where the distribution set files are on the CD-ROM, DVD or USB stick. Likely locations are binary/sets and sparc/binary/sets. (You only need to know this if you are mixing installer and installation media from different versions - the installer will know the proper default location for the sets it comes with). Proceed to the instructions on installation. FTP The preparations for this instal- lation/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 net- work, 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. 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 upgrad- ing. NFS Place the NetBSD distribution sets you wish to install into a direc- tory on an NFS server, and make that directory mountable by the machine on which you are installing or upgrading NetBSD. This will probably require modify- ing the /etc/exports file on the NFS server and resetting its mount daemon (mountd). (Both of these actions will probably 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 informa- tion mentioned above, you can pro- ceed 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. Tape 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 easiest way to do so is probably something like: # tar -cf tape_device dist_sets where tape_device is the name of the tape device that represents the tape drive you're using. This might be /dev/rst0, or something similar, but it will vary from system to system. In the above example, dist_sets is a list of filenames corresponding to the distribution sets that you wish to place on the tape. For instance, to put the kern-GENERIC, base, and etc distributions on tape (the absolute minimum required for installation), you would do the following: # cd .../NetBSD-10.0_RC3 # cd sparc/binary # tar -cf tape_device kern-GENERIC.tgz base.tgz etc.tgz Note: You still need to fill in tape_device 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 installa- tion, go directly to the section on upgrading. Preparing your System for NetBSD installation Configuring your PROM Before you start, you should configure your PROM. There are three categories of PROM: ``sunmon'' (sometimes called Restricted Prompt, sun monitor, or old command mode), Open- Boot PROM 1, and OpenBoot PROM 2. The sun4 machines only have sunmon. Some of the early sun4c models default to sun- mon but have OpenBoot PROM 1. The later sun4c models and all sun4m models have OpenBoot PROM 2. First, you need to stop your system from automatically boot- ing when powered on. Pressing the STOP key (sometimes called the L1 key, found on the left side of your keyboard) and the a key will halt your system and give you a PROM prompt. If you are using a Tadpole SPARCbook, you press the Pause and a keys. If you are using a serial console, send a ``BREAK'' signal from your terminal (the method of sending ``BREAK'' varies from terminal to terminal). If the ethernet address of your sparc system is ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff, then your NVRAM battery is dead and you will have trouble using ethernet (among other problems). Read the Sun NVRAM/Hostid FAQ: https://web.archive.org/web/20150611091616/https://www.squirrel.com/squirrel/sun-nvram-hostid.faq.html. If you have a valid ethernet address and you plan to net- boot, write down your system's ethernet address. Next, you should set your system to always use the OpenBoot PROM (sometimes called ``new command mode'') if it defaults to sunmon. The NetBSD kernel relies on some of the function- ality provided by the OpenBoot PROM. If your machine gives you a `>' prompt instead of an `ok' prompt, type: > n ok setenv sunmon-compat? false ok Next, if you are using any security features of OpenBoot PROM, you should turn them off -- NetBSD can't deal well with this. ok setenv security-mode none If you are using a serial console, the NetBSD/sparc installer defaults to using 9600 bps, 8N1 settings. You may want to configure your system and serial terminal like this prior to booting the installer. Additionally, a new instal- lation of NetBSD/sparc will default to these settings as well. The OpenBoot PROM 1 machines (SPARCstation/server 1, SPARC- station/server 1+, IPC, and SLC) have an odd SCSI quirk you should be aware of. There are three SCSI addressing schemes used by your system: SCSI target ID (set by physical jumpers on the device), PROM `unit' number (set by OpenBoot PROM 1, based on its SCSI target ID), and the name you reference within an operating system (set by the kernel, based on the PROM `unit' number). Sun shipped these systems with the internal drives set to SCSI target IDs 3 and 1. The default value of the OpenBoot PROM variable `sd-targets' is `31204567.' This variable maps how the OpenBoot PROM 1 assigns `unit' numbers based on the SCSI target ID. Thus the device at SCSI target ID 3 is con- sidered `unit' 0, and the SCSI device at target ID 0 is `unit' 3. When you type ``boot scsi(0,0,0)'', the OpenBoot PROM will boot from `unit' 0 (which is SCSI target ID 3, the internal hard drive). The SunOS kernel is hard-wired to map sd0 to SCSI target 3, and sd3 to SCSI target 0. PROM Unit# SCSI Target SunOS name 0 3 sd0 1 1 sd1 2 2 sd2 3 0 sd3 4 4 st0 5 5 st1 6 6 cdrom The NetBSD/sparc GENERIC kernel does not wire things down as does SunOS. It names the disks in the order that the SCSI targets are probed (01234567). If you only have one disk, it is always sd0 regardless of its SCSI target ID or its PROM `unit' number, and there are no problems. If you have two disks, one at SCSI ID 2 (`unit' 2) and SCSI ID 3 (`unit' 0), then they are recognized as sd0 and sd1 respectively. This can be a problem if you are not aware of it, particularly when creating an fstab. There are two approaches to fixing this problem: changing the mapping that OpenBoot PROM 1 does, and changing the NetBSD kernel configuration. To get OpenBoot PROM 1 to num- ber the SCSI `unit' numbers the same as the SCSI target IDs, you need to run this command: ok setenv sd-targets 01234567 This may, however, cause problems if you were to later attempt to use SunOS on this machine or if you reset the OpenBoot PROM variables. The other approach is to use a NetBSD kernel that matches the PROM's odd target mapping by treating `unit' 0 (i.e. SCSI target ID 3) as sd0 and `unit' 3 (i.e. SCSI target ID 0) as sd3. The GENERIC_SCSI3 kernel performs this target mapping, but the GENERIC and INSTALL kernels do not. Note: This is also a concern when you start building your own customised kernels. The machines with OpenBoot PROM 2 (SPARCstation/server 2, ELC, IPX, and all sun4m models) have a similar SCSI target mapping in the form of a devalias entry. That is, the device alias disk is shorthand for the disk at SCSI ID 3 on the internal SCSI controller. Normally, the disk device alias is what the PROM uses as the default boot device, i.e. in the absence of a device argument to the boot command. Note that there are also pre-configured device alias entries for disk0, disk1, disk2 and disk3, which are in fact a one- to-one mapping to the SCSI targets 0 to 3 (all on the internal SCSI controller). Again, it may be advantageous to use a fixed ``SCSI target'' to ``NetBSD disk unit'' mapping in your kernel configura- tion file (such as is done in the GENERIC_SCSI3 kernel) to ensure that your disks remain showing up at the same NetBSD device unit numbers even if you add disks to your system at a later time. Determining how to access your SCSI disk from the PROM sunmon and OpenBoot PROM 1 use an archaic sd(c,u,p) syntax to address SCSI devices. OpenBoot PROM 2 uses a more intu- itive syntax using device aliases. To calculate the parameters for sunmon and OpenBoot PROM 1: c specifies the SCSI controller number (first is 0, second is 1, ...) u the hexadecimal number obtained from evaluating the expression (8 * TARGET) + LUN p the partition number from which to boot (`0' = `a', `1' = `b', etc.) Therefore, to boot from the swap partition on the internal hard drive (first SCSI bus, target 0, lun 0, partition 1), one would use: ok boot sd(0,0,1) To boot from a CD-ROM (first SCSI bus, target 6, lun 0, par- tition dynamically determined), one would use: ok boot sd(0,30,) And, to boot from a kernel named netbsd-GENERIC on the fourth partition (`d', often the /usr partition) on an external hard drive (first SCSI bus, target 2, lun 0, parti- tion 3), one would use: ok boot sd(0,10,3)netbsd-GENERIC Now, for OpenBoot PROM 2, SCSI devices are specified by an OpenBOOT devalias which provides simple mnemonics for the full path to the device. Type devalias in OpenBoot PROM 2 to get a list of all of the available aliases. Just the alias and partition are necessary when booting. Therefore, to boot from the swap partition on the internal hard drive (OpenBoot PROM 2 assumes the internal hard drive is at target 3), one would use: ok boot disk:b To boot from a CD-ROM (OpenBoot PROM 2 assumes the CD-ROM is at target 6), one would use: ok boot cdrom And, to boot from a kernel named netbsd-GENERIC on the fourth partition (`d', often the /usr partition) on an external hard drive (target 2, partition 3), one would use: ok boot disk2:d netbsd-GENERIC The full device path specifier for OpenBoot PROM 2 depends on how OpenBoot PROM 2 recognizes your SCSI controller. Typ- ically, one would use something like: /sbus/esp/sd@t,p where t is the SCSI target and p is the partition number. Determining how to boot from an SBUS card Some SBUS cards have firmware that lets you use them as a boot device. These cards do not automatically create a devalias entry, so you must traverse the device tree to fig- ure out what the OpenBoot PROM calls your card. You will be using OpenBoot PROM commands at the `ok' prompt. First `cd' to the top of the device tree and list the nodes there. The following is the procedure to boot from an HME card in a SPARC Classic. ok cd / ok ls ffd3b790 TI,TMS390S10@0,f8fffffc ffd2d254 virtual-memory@0,0 ffd2d198 memory@0,0 ffd2b65c obio ffd2b310 iommu@0,10000000 ffd2b2a0 openprom ffd24af0 aliases ffd24abc options ffd24a88 packages Usually, you can simply type in the name before the at (@) sign and the OpenBoot PROM will fill in the rest. ok cd iommu ok ls ffd2b454 sbus@0,10001000 ok cd sbus ok ls ffd467e8 cgthree@3,0 ffd42a1c SUNW,hme@1,8c00000 ffd4297c le@0,c00000 ffd40d28 ledma@4,8400010 ffd40c9c SUNW,bpp@4,c800000 ffd40c00 audio@4,1300000 ffd3dc68 espdma@4,8400000 ok cd SUNW,hme ok ls ok pwd /iommu@0,10000000/sbus@0,10001000/SUNW,hme@1,8c00000 OK, now we know the path to the HME device in this example. Now, we need to determine if it's capable of booting. If it is, it will have the word `open'. ok words reset seek load open close watch-net selftest obp-selftest write read preamble-32 enable-link-pulse disable-link-pulse force-speeds reset-transceiver use-bit-bang-mode use-frame-mode dump-phys transfer-speed=10 transfer-speed=100 mii-write mii-read create-rev-id Great! Also, in case you're interested in further details about your hardware, you can use the `.attributes' command. ok .attributes hm-rev 00000022 version 1.18 model SUNW,501-2919 device_type network intr 00000037 00000000 interrupts 00000004 address-bits 00000030 max-frame-size 00004000 reg 00000001 08c00000 00000108 00000001 08c02000 00002000 00000001 08c04000 00002000 00000001 08c06000 00002000 00000001 08c07000 00000020 name SUNW,hme ok So, when it's time to type in a boot command, use the short- ened version of the pwd command. In this example, you'd type: ok boot /iommu/sbus/SUNW,hme And when the kernel is done booting, it may not automati- cally use your card as the root device -- you may need to type in the NetBSD/sparc name for that device: root on sd0a dumps on sd0b no file system for sd0 (dev 0x700) cannot mount root, error = 79 root device (default sd0a): ? use one of: fd0[a-h] le0 le1 hme0 sd0[a-h] halt root device (default sd0a): hme0 dump device: hme0 file system (default generic): nfs root on hme0 Deciding on partition sizes If you're installing NetBSD/sparc for the first time it's a good idea to look at the partition sizes of disk you intend installing NetBSD/sparc on. A minimal installation of NetBSD requires about 140 MB. A full installation requires considerably more. A good ini- tial size for the swap partition is twice the amount of physical memory in your machine (unlike SunOS 4.x, there are no restrictions on the size of the swap partition that would render part of your memory unusable). Note that there are limitations on the size of the root par- tition for various models. On sun4 machines, the NetBSD sparc boot loader can only boot from RAID partitions that start at the beginning of the disk. On sun4 and early PROM version sun4c machines, the PROM can only boot from the first 1Gb of the disk. On later PROM version sun4c and early PROM version sun4m machines, the PROM can only boot from the first 2Gb of the disk. On later PROM version sun4m machines, the PROM can only boot from the first 4Gb of the disk. Configuration of network interfaces Some network devices (i.e. the built-in le interface on sun4m machines) allow a choice between operating on a UTP or a AUI port once the NetBSD kernel is running. The le driver supports automatic detection of the port which is actually connected to the wire. Additionally, some of the Fast ether- net devices (such as be, hme, qec, and qfe) support selec- tion of various speeds and options. The default is to attempt to automatically detect the speed. If automatic detection is not available or not working prop- erly in your environment, you may have to specify the type connection using the media parameter of ifconfig(8). During installation, you'll get the opportunity to specify the appropriate medium. Use 10base5 or AUI to select the AUI connector, or 10baseT or UTP to select the UTP connector. Fast ethernet interfaces default to auto, which usually does not detect properly and runs at `10BaseT' speed. The options are 10baseT, 10baseTX, and auto. The hme and qfe interfaces also allow 10baseT-FDX and 100baseT-FDX. Installing the NetBSD System Installing NetBSD is a relatively complex process, but if you have this document in hand it shouldn't be too much trouble. There are several ways to install NetBSD onto your system. The easiest way is to use the miniroot.fs image copied to your local disk's swap partition or a scratch drive. If your Sparc is hooked up in a network, you may configure another UNIX-like machine as a netboot server for your Sparc. For more information on the commands and variables available in the OpenBoot PROM (present in all sun4c and sun4m machines), go to http://docs.sun.com and search for ``openboot reference'' (without quotes). Installing NetBSD by placing a bootable file system on a partitioned hard drive installation/miniroot/miniroot.fs.gz is a compressed, self- contained NetBSD file system holding all utilities necessary to install NetBSD onto a disk attached to your system. It is distributed as a compressed plain file you will transfer to a raw disk partition. You will then boot this installer using the appropriate PROM command. The simplest case is where you place the miniroot.fs file system on the swap par- tition of your disk. Alternatively, you can place it on any other unused partition on any disk (such as a Zip disk). Be forewarned that you will not be able to install NetBSD onto the partition that contains the miniroot.fs as this parti- tion is needed during the install process. Loading the file system onto a raw partition is straightfor- ward. First, download miniroot.fs to your system. Next, reboot in single-user mode (i.e. boot -s) to ensure that your system will not be swapping. Finally, place the miniroot.fs on your partition of choice. On NetBSD or SunOS the commands are: # gunzip miniroot.fs.gz # dd if=miniroot.fs of=/dev/rsd0b bs=4k Here, /dev/rsd0b is assumed to be your swap partition. If you decide to place miniroot.fs on a non-swap partition, it will overwrite all of the contents of that partition, but you will not need to reboot into single-user mode to write it. After transferring the file system to disk, bring the system down by: # halt Then boot the installer by typing the appropriate command at the PROM prompt (this example is for the swap partition): sunmon > b sd(,,1)netbsd -s OpenBoot PROM 1 ok boot sd(,,1)netbsd -s OpenBoot PROM 2 ok boot disk:b netbsd -s The monitor boot command will load the NetBSD kernel con- tained in the file system image. After the initial probe messages you'll be asked to start the install or upgrade procedure. Proceed to the section Running the installation scripts. below. Installing NetBSD by using a bootable CD-ROM If you wish to burn a CD-R containing a bootable NetBSD installation, then you can either burn the prepared disk image in images/NetBSD-10.0_RC3-sparc.iso or create your own. If you wish to create your own, you should follow the directions on the NetBSD Bootable CD-ROM HOW-TO at: http://www.NetBSD.org/docs/bootcd.html#sparcimage Once you have downloaded NetBSD-10.0_RC3-sparc.iso or cre- ated your own disk image, then you need to burn it to a CD- R. The CD-ROM attached to your Sparc must support 512 byte sec- tors to be bootable. All Sun brand CD-ROMs will work, as well as many other manufacturers. See the Sun CD-ROM FAQ: http://saturn.tlug.org/suncdfaq/ Sun sets their CD-ROM drives to SCSI ID 6. We recommend you do the same. Boot the installer by typing the appropriate command at the PROM prompt: sunmon > b sd(,30,) OpenBoot PROM 1 ok boot sd(,30,) OpenBoot PROM 2 ok boot cdrom After the initial probe messages you'll be asked to start the install or upgrade procedure. Proceed to the section Running the installation scripts. below. Installing NetBSD by using a netboot setup 1. Introduction To netboot a sparc, you must configure one or more servers to provide information and files to your sparc (the `client'). If you are using NetBSD (any architec- ture) on your netboot server(s), the information pro- vided here should be sufficient to configure every- thing. Additionally, you may wish to look at the diskless(8) manual page and the manual pages for each daemon you'll be configuring. If the server(s) are another operating system, you should consult the NetBSD Diskless HOW-TO, which will walk you through the steps necessary to configure the netboot services on a vari- ety of platforms: https://www.NetBSD.org/docs/network/netboot/ You may either netboot the installer so you can install onto a locally attached disk, or you may run your sys- tem entirely over the network. Briefly, the netboot process involves discovery, boot- strap, kernel and file system stages. In the first stage, the client discovers information about where to find the bootstrap program. Next, it downloads and executes the bootstrap program. The bootstrap program goes through another discovery phase to determine where the kernel is located. The bootstrap program tries to mount the NFS share containing the kernel. Once the kernel is loaded, it starts executing. For RAM disk kernels, it mounts the RAM disk file system and begins executing the installer from the RAM disk. For normal (non-RAM disk) kernels, the kernel tries to mount the NFS share that had the kernel and starts executing the installation tools or init(8). All sparc systems except JavaStations with OpenFirmware PROM use a combi- nation of RARP and BOOTP for the discovery stage. In the past, these systems used RARP and BOOTPARAMS. JavaStations booting from OpenFirmware use DHCP. TFTP is used in the bootstrap phase to download the boot- strap program, boot.net, which has been linked to a file name appropriate to the client's architecture and IP address as described in the TFTP section below. JavaStations with OpenFirmware need a special bootstrap program, bootjs.net, which is a version of boot.net in ELF format. It is not linked to the IP address. NFS is used in both the kernel and file system stages to download the kernel, and to access files on the file server. We will use `CC:CC:CC:CC:CC:CC' as the MAC address (ethernet hardware address) of your netboot client machine. You should have determined this address in an earlier stage. In this example, we will use `192.168.1.10' as the IP address of your client and `client.test.net' as its name. We will assume you're providing all of your netboot services on one machine called `server.test.net' with the client's files exported from the directory /export/client/root. You should, of course, replace all of these with the names, addresses, and paths appropriate to your environment. You should set up each netboot stage in order (i.e., discovery, bootstrap, kernel, and then file system) so that you can test them as you proceed. 2. dhcpd(8) in bootpd(8) compatible mode Put the following lines in your /etc/dhcpd.conf (see dhcpd.conf(5) and dhcp-options(5) for more informa- tion): ddns-update-style none; # Do not use any dynamic DNS features # allow bootp; # Allow bootp requests, thus the dhcp server # will act as a bootp server. # authoritative; # master DHCP server for this subnet # subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { # Which network interface to listen on. # The zeros indicate the range of addresses # that are allowed to connect. } group { # Set of parameters common to all clients # in this "group". # option broadcast-address 192.168.1.255; option domain-name "test.net"; option domain-name-servers dns.test.net; option routers router.test.net; option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0; # # An individual client. # host client.test.net { hardware ethernet CC:CC:CC:CC:CC:CC; fixed-address 192.168.1.10; # # Name of the host (if the fixed address # doesn't resolve to a simple name). # option host-name "client"; # # Name of the bootloader or kernel # to download via tftp. # # Only needed for JavaStations with OpenFirmware! # filename "bootjs.net"; # # The path on the NFS server. # option root-path "/export/client/root"; # # The host address of the NFS server. This is mandatory for # NetBSD kernels even it's the same host as the DHCP server. # next-server server.test.net; } #you may paste another "host" entry here for additional #clients on this network } Note that for JavaStations booting from OpenFirmware you do not need the allow bootp; statement, since this machines use real DHCP. You will need to make sure that the dhcpd.leases file exists. # touch /var/db/dhcpd.leases You will need to start the dhcpd. If it's already run- ning, you will need to restart it to force it to re- read its configuration file. If the server is running NetBSD, you can achieve this with: # /etc/rc.d/dhcpd restart 3. rarpd(8) Note: no rarpd is needed to boot OpenFirmware based JavaStations. Create an /etc/ethers file with the following line: CC:CC:CC:CC:CC:CC client Add your client to the server's /etc/hosts file: 192.168.1.10 client You will need to start the rarpd. If it's already run- ning, you will need to restart it to force it to re- read its configuration file. If the server is running NetBSD, you can achieve this with: # /etc/rc.d/rarpd restart 4. tftpd(8) The default configuration of the TFTP server is to run in a chroot(8) environment in the /tftpboot directory. Thus, the first order of business is to create this directory: # mkdir -p /tftpboot Next, edit /etc/inetd.conf and uncomment the line with the TFTP daemon: tftp dgram udp wait root /usr/libexec/tftpd tftpd -l -s /tftpboot Now, restart inetd(8). If the server is running NetBSD, you can achieve this with: # /etc/rc.d/inetd restart Now, you need to copy the bootloader for your sparc machine to /tftpboot. Get boot.net from the installation/netboot directory of the distribution. # cp boot.net /tftpboot Now, you need to link boot.net to the filename that your sparc will look for. It will look for a filename composed of the machine's IP address (in hexadecimal) followed by the machine's architecture, separated by a period. For example, a sun4c machine which has been assigned IP address 192.168.1.10, will make a TFTP request for C0A8010A.SUN4C. You can use bc(1) to help calculate the filename: # bc obase=16 192 C0 168 A8 1 1 10 A quit # cd /tftpboot # ln -s boot.net C0A8010A.SUN4C For OpenFirmware based JavaStations you use the file bootjs.net and do not create a symlink for the IP address. This machines do full DHCP autoconfiguration, so the bootstrap filename is provided by the DHCP server. Just to be sure, let's make everything readable. # chmod -R a+rX /tftpboot Sometimes, the arp(8) table gets messed up, and the TFTP server can't communicate with the client. In this case, it will write a log message (via syslogd(8)) to /var/log/messages saying: `tftpd: write: Host is down'. If this is the case, you may need to force the server to map your client's ethernet address to its IP address: # arp -s client CC:CC:CC:CC:CC:CC 5. nfsd(8), mountd(8), and rpcbind(8) Now your system should be able to load the bootstrap program and start looking for the kernel. Let's set up the NFS server. Create the directory you are exporting for the netboot client: # mkdir -p /export/client/root Put the following line in /etc/exports to enable NFS sharing: /export/client/root -maproot=root client.test.net If your server is currently running an NFS server, you only need to restart mountd(8). Otherwise, you need to start rpcbind(8) and nfsd(8). If the server is running NetBSD, you can achieve this with: # /etc/rc.d/rpcbind start # /etc/rc.d/nfsd start # /etc/rc.d/mountd restart 6. NetBSD kernel and installation tools Now, if you place a kernel named netbsd in /export/client/root your client should boot the kernel. Use binary/kernel/netbsd-GENERIC.gz. # gunzip netbsd-GENERIC.gz # mv netbsd-GENERIC /export/client/root/netbsd If you are netbooting the installer, copy the distribu- tion files to the client's root directory and extract the tools from installation/netboot/rootfs.tgz. # cp *.tgz /export/client/root # cd /export/client/root # tar -xpzf rootfs.tgz 7. Client file system You can skip this step if you do not plan to run your client diskless after installation. Otherwise, you need to extract and set up the client's installation of NetBSD. The Diskless HOW-TO describes how to provide better security and save space on the NFS server over the procedure listed here. See for details: https://www.NetBSD.org/docs/network/netboot/nfs.html. o Extracting distribution sets # cd /export/client/root # tar -xpzf /path/to/files/base.tgz # tar -xpzf /path/to/files/etc.tgz Continue with the other non-essential distribution sets if desired. o Set up swap # mkdir /export/client/root/swap # dd if=/dev/zero of=/export/client/swap bs=4k count=4k # echo '/export/client/swap -maproot=root:wheel client.test.net' >> /etc/exports # /etc/rc.d/mountd restart This creates a 16 MB swap file and exports it to the client. o Create device nodes # cd /export/client/root/dev # ./MAKEDEV all This procedure only works on NetBSD hosts. o Set up the client's fstab(5) Create a file in /export/client/root/etc/fstab with the following lines: server:/export/client/swap none swap sw,nfsmntpt=/swap server:/export/client/root / nfs rw 0 0 o Set up the client's rc.conf(5) Edit /export/client/root/etc/rc.conf rc_configured=YES hostname="client" defaultroute="192.168.1.1" nfs_client=YES auto_ifconfig=NO net_interfaces="" Make sure rc does not reconfigure the network device since it will lose its connection to the NFS server with your root file system. o Set up the client's hosts(5) file. Edit /export/client/root/etc/hosts ::1 localhost 127.0.0.1 localhost 192.168.1.10 client.test.net client 192.168.1.5 server.test.net server 8. Setting up the server daemons If you want these services to start up every time you boot your server, make sure the following lines are present in your /etc/rc.conf: dhcpd=YES dhcpd_flags="-q" rarpd=YES rarpd_flags="-a" nfs_server=YES # enable server daemons mountd=YES rpcbind=YES rpcbind_flags="-l" # -l logs libwrap Also, you'll need to make sure the tftpd line in /etc/inetd.conf remains uncommented. Now, netboot your Sparc from the server by entering the appropriate boot command at the monitor prompt. Depending on the PROM version in your machine, this command takes one of the following forms: sunmon > b le()netbsd OpenBoot PROM 1 ok b le()netbsd OpenBoot PROM 2 ok boot net netbsd After the initial probe messages you'll be asked to start the install or upgrade procedure. Proceed to the section Running the installation scripts. below. Installing NetBSD by using a bootable tape Sun sets their tape drives to SCSI ID 4. We recommend you do the same. Get the tape images (installation/tape/tapefile1.gz and installation/tape/tapefile2) and transfer them to a tape. Make sure you use the `no rewind scsi tape' device. Run the following commands: # gunzip tapefile1.gz # mt -f /dev/nrst0 rew # dd if=tapefile1 of=/dev/nrst0 bs=4k conv=osync # dd if=tapefile2 of=/dev/nrst0 bs=4k conv=osync Now you can transfer the NetBSD 10.0_RC3. distribution sets from (binary/sets) to the tape by using a series of addi- tional # dd if=.tgz of=/dev/nrst0 bs=4k conv=osync commands. See also the section Getting the NetBSD System on to Useful Media. Be sure to mark the location of these files on the tape; you'll need them during the installation proce- dure. Insert the tape into your Sparc's tapestation. Boot the installer by typing the appropriate command at the PROM prompt: sunmon > b st() OpenBoot PROM 1 ok boot st() OpenBoot PROM 2 ok boot tape After the initial probe messages you'll be asked to confirm the tape device and tape file number containing the instal- lation tools. Then, proceed to the section Running the installation scripts. below. Running the installation scripts The first thing that the installation scripts will inquire about is the type of console you're using on your machine. If you're using a Sun frame buffer display, choose the ter- minal type sun (this is presented as the default). Note: if your frame buffer device is a cgsix Sbus board, you should change the terminal type to sun-cgsix to avoid triggering a bug in the board's firmware code that can garble your screen. If you're using a terminal device connected to a serial port, choose a terminal type appropriate for that device, e.g. vt100 or vt200. Next, you will be presented with a choice of two installa- tion methods: a new full-screen sysinst program, or the tra- ditional script-based miniroot program. The sysinst program is easier to use, but the miniroot program is more flexible. Both of these installation methods will follow the same set of procedures and will fully install NetBSD on your Sparc. You will frequently be asked for confirmation before the system proceeds with each phase of the installation process. Occasionally, you will have to provide a piece of informa- tion such as the name of the disk you want to install on, partitioning information, or IP addresses and domain names you want to assign. If your system has more than one disk, you may want to look at the output of the dmesg(8) command to see how your disks have been identified by the kernel. Note: If you repartition a hard drive, be certain that every partition starts on a cylinder boundary for compatibility with the Sparc ROM. The installation script goes through the following phases: o determination of the disk on which to install NetBSD o checking/creation of the partition information on the disk o creating and mounting the NetBSD file systems o setup of network configuration o extraction of the distribution tar files o installation of bootstrap programs Now try a reboot. Initially we'd suggest you boot sd()netbsd -bs, then try multiuser after that. If you boot single-user the NetBSD incantation to make the root file system writable is # mount -u /dev/sd0a / Your PROM might have been setup to instruct the boot program to load a file called vmunix. On OpenBoot PROM systems you can change it to load netbsd instead using the following commands: OpenBoot PROM 1 ok setenv boot-from sd(0,0,0)netbsd OpenBoot PROM 2 ok setenv boot-file netbsd ok setenv boot-device disk:a Congratulations, you have successfully installed NetBSD 10.0_RC3. Post installation steps 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. The most important steps are described below. 1. Before all else, read postinstall(8). 2. Configuring /etc/rc.conf If you or the installation software haven't done any configuration of /etc/rc.conf (sysinst normally 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 system asks you to choose a shell, simply press RETURN to get to a /bin/sh prompt. If you are asked for a terminal type, respond with sun for a local console, or whatever is appropriate for your serial console (some systems display garbage with a sun termi- nal type, you may need to use sun-ss5) and press RETURN. You may need to type one of the following com- mands to get your delete key to work properly, depend- ing on your keyboard: # stty erase '^h' # stty erase '^?' At this point, you need to configure at least one file in the /etc directory. You will need to mount your root file system read/write with: # /sbin/mount -u -w / Change to the /etc directory and take a look at the /etc/rc.conf 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 pro- ceed. Default values for the various programs can be found in /etc/defaults/rc.conf, where some in-line doc- umentation may be found. More complete documentation can be found in rc.conf(5). When you have finished editing /etc/rc.conf, type exit at the prompt to leave the single-user shell and con- tinue with the multi-user boot. Other values that may need to be set in /etc/rc.conf for a networked environment are hostname and possibly defaultroute. You may also need to add an ifconfig_int for your network interface, along the lines of ifconfig_le0="inet 192.0.2.123 netmask 255.255.255.0" or, if you have myname.my.dom in /etc/hosts: ifconfig_le0="inet myname.my.dom netmask 255.255.255.0" To enable proper hostname resolution, you will also want to add an /etc/resolv.conf file or (if you are feeling a little more adventurous) run named(8). See resolv.conf(5) or named(8) for more information. Instead of manually configuring networking, DHCP can be used by setting dhcpcd=YES in /etc/rc.conf. 3. Select the proper terminal devices If you are using a serial console, you will have to edit the /etc/ttys file and change sun to the appropri- ate terminal type, such as vt220. 4. Logging in After reboot, you can log in as root at the login prompt. If you didn't set a password in sysinst, there is no initial password. You should create 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. 5. Adding accounts Use the useradd(8) command to add accounts to your sys- tem. Do not edit /etc/passwd directly! See vipw(8) and pwd_mkdb(8) if you want to edit the password database. 6. The X Window System If you installed the X Window System, you may want to read the chapter about X in the NetBSD Guide: https://www.NetBSD.org/docs/guide/en/chap-x.html: 7. 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, pkgsrc. pkgsrc automatically handles any changes nec- essary to make the software run on NetBSD. This includes the retrieval and installation of any other packages the software may depend upon. o More information on the package system is available at https://www.NetBSD.org/docs/software/packages.html o A list of available packages suitable for browsing is at https://cdn.NetBSD.org/pub/pkgsrc/current/pkgsrc/README.html o Precompiled binaries can be found at https://cdn.NetBSD.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/ usually in the sparc/10.0_RC3/All subdir. If you installed pkgin(1) in the sysinst post-installation configuration menu, you can use it to automatically install binary packages over the network. Assuming that /usr/pkg/etc/pkgin/repositories.conf is cor- rectly configured, you can install them with the following commands: # pkgin install tcsh bash perl apache xfce4 firefox ... The above command will install the Tenex-csh and Bourne Again shells, the Perl programming language, Apache web server, Xfce desktop environment and the Firefox web browser as well as all the packages they depend on. If it was not automatically installed, pkgin(1) can be installed on a fresh NetBSD system with pkg_add(1): export PKG_PATH=https://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/$(uname -p)/$(uname -r | cut -d_ -f1)/All pkg_add pkgin o If you wish to use the pkgsrc(7) framework for com- piling packages and did not install it from the sysinst(8) post-installation configuration menu, you can obtain it by retrieving the file https://cdn.NetBSD.org/pub/pkgsrc/stable/pkgsrc.tar.gz. It is typically extracted into /usr/pkgsrc (though other locations work fine) with the commands: # cd /usr # tar -zxpf pkgsrc.tar.gz After extracting, see the doc/pkgsrc.txt file in the extraction directory (e.g., /usr/pkgsrc/doc/pkgsrc.txt) for more information. 8. Misc o Edit /etc/mail/aliases to forward root mail to the right place. Don't forget to run newaliases(1) afterwards. o Edit /etc/rc.local to run any local daemons you use. o Many of the /etc files are documented in section 5 of the manual; so just invoking # man 5 filename is likely to give you more information on these files. Upgrading a previously-installed NetBSD System The easiest way to upgrade to NetBSD 10.0_RC3 is with bina- ries, and that is the method documented here. To do the upgrade, you must boot the install kernel using one of the methods described above. You must also have at least the base and kern binary distribution sets available. 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 addi- tional free space for files which weren't previously installed or to account for growth of the sets between releases. Since upgrading involves replacing the kernel, boot blocks, and most of the system binaries, it has the potential to cause data loss. You are strongly advised to back up any important data on the NetBSD partition or on another operat- ing system's partition on your disk before beginning the upgrade process. The upgrade procedure is similar to an installation, but without the hard disk partitioning. Fetching the binary sets is done in the same manner as the installation procedure; refer to the installation part of the document for help. File systems are checked before unpacking the sets. After a new kernel has been copied to your hard disk, your machine is a complete NetBSD 10.0_RC3 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 /dev. If you've changed the contents of /dev by hand, you will need to be careful about this, but if not, you can just cd into /dev, and run the command: # sh MAKEDEV all sysinst will attempt to merge the settings stored in your /etc directory with the new version of NetBSD using the postinstall(8) utility. However, postinstall(8) is only able to deal with changes that are easily automated. It is recommended that you use the etcupdate(8) tool to merge any remaining configuration changes. Compatibility Issues With Previous NetBSD Releases Users upgrading from previous versions of NetBSD may wish to bear the following problems and compatibility issues in mind when upgrading to NetBSD 10.0_RC3. Note that sysinst will automatically invoke postinstall fix and thus all issues that are fixed by postinstall by default will be handled. In NetBSD 9 and earlier, filesystems listed in /etc/fstab would be mounted before non-legacy zfs filesystems. Starting from NetBSD 10 this order has been reversed. If you have ever run a version of NetBSD -current between April 18, 2020 and September 23, 2022 (the version numbers used in the affected time range are between 9.99.56 and 9.99.106) your FFS file systems might have broken extended attributes stored. You should follow this guide: https://wiki.netbsd.org/features/UFS2ea/ before booting the updated system multi-user for the first time. Note that you do not need to do anything special if you never did run any affected kernel, especially if you have never run NetBSD -current. The display drivers used for modern GPUs and the whole sub- system supporting it (DRM/KMS) have been updated to a newer version. Unfortunately not all issues with this have been resolved before the NetBSD 10.0 release. You can find a list of issues in the Open issues with new DRM/KMS: https://wiki.netbsd.org/releng/netbsd-10/ section of the release engineering wiki page. A number of things have been removed from the NetBSD 10.0_RC3 release. See the ``Components removed from NetBSD'' section near the beginning of this document for a list. Using online NetBSD documentation Documentation is available if you installed the manual dis- tribution set. Traditionally, the ``man pages'' (documenta- tion) are denoted by `name(section)'. Some examples of this are o intro(1), o man(1), o apropos(1), o passwd(1), and o passwd(5). The section numbers group the topics into several cate- gories, but three are of primary interest: user commands are in section 1, file formats are in section 5, and administra- tive information is in section 8. The man command is used to view the documentation on a topic, and is started by entering man [section] topic. The brackets [] around the section 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 num- bered section name will be displayed. For instance, after logging in, enter # man passwd to read the documentation for passwd(1). To view the docu- mentation for passwd(5), enter # man 5 passwd instead. If you are unsure of what man page you are looking for, enter # apropos subject-word where subject-word is your topic of interest; a list of pos- sibly related man pages will be displayed. Administrivia 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 majordomo@NetBSD.org. See https://www.NetBSD.org/mailinglists/ for details. There are various mailing lists set up to deal with comments and questions about this release. Please send comments to: netbsd-comments@NetBSD.org. 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. Bugs also can be submitted and queried with the web inter- face at https://www.NetBSD.org/support/send-pr.html There are also port-specific mailing lists, to discuss aspects of each port of NetBSD. Use majordomo to find their addresses, or visit https://www.NetBSD.org/mailinglists/ 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 NetBSD, and have an idea as to how you could be useful, send us mail or subscribe to: netbsd-users@NetBSD.org. 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 appro- priate list about it. If you'd rather not do that, mail the list saying you'll send the data to those who want it. Thanks go to o The former members of UCB's Computer Systems Research Group, including (but not limited to): Keith Bostic Ralph Campbell Mike Karels Marshall Kirk McKusick for their work on BSD systems, support, and encourage- ment. o The Internet Systems Consortium, Inc. for hosting the NetBSD FTP, CVS, AnonCVS, mail, mail archive, GNATS, SUP, Rsync and WWW servers. o The Internet Research Institute in Japan for hosting the server which runs the CVSweb interface to the NetBSD source tree. o The Columbia University Computer Science Department for hosting the build cluster. o The many organizations that provide NetBSD mirror sites. o Without CVS, this project would be impossible to manage, so our hats go off to Brian Berliner, Jeff Polk, and the various other people who've had a hand in making CVS a useful tool. o We list the individuals and organizations that have made donations or loans of hardware and/or money, to support NetBSD development, and deserve credit for it at https://www.NetBSD.org/donations/ (If you're not on that list and should be, tell us! We probably were not able to get in touch with you, to ver- ify that you wanted to be listed.) o Finally, we thank all of the people who've put sweat and tears into developing NetBSD since its inception in Jan- uary, 1993. (Obviously, there are a lot more people who deserve thanks here. If you're one of them, and would like to be mentioned, tell us!)
