3e79ffa604 added to install_notes instructions for loading distribtuion
files from a MS-DOS partition.
Minor cleanup:
fixed spelling error in inst1.install
capitalized sentences in kc.profile
reworded initial load_fd options

2712db44d1 Extended load_fd() to support reading from the first Primary DOS
partition of the boot disk.  So we have yet another medium via
which to load the FreeBSD distribution files.  load_fd() has
options for listing and (if reading from the C:  drive) changing
directories.

load_fd's notation assumes that the first Primary partition on
disk is the DOS drive C: (since this and only this one is mounted
by install).  Otherwise, the notation may be a bit confusing.
We'll know the assumption is bad if people complain about
not finding files on their "C:" drive...

Added a device file existence check to kc.profile.

e1001e11da The load_fd() now initializes the `interactive' variable to -i instead
of -v (my fault).
The extract() command now rm's /tmp/cat, not /bin/cat (my fault).

8dddc300cb Fixed the extract() command which I had broken attempting to implement
it without cat.  It now requires cat again (no way around it unless
gunzip can accept arbitrary filename suffixes).

b949d34a31 Since reboot is now installed, use it if the fsck fails 1993-09-12 23:55:35 +00:00

39da311037 Quick checkin between network hangs...
Restored trap calls in profile, and reset trap 2 at end of fsck.
Make installation of fourth floppy an option.

d92c47dabf Converted many occurances of multiple spaces to tabs to save bytes
any way I can.  Converted all echo "" to be just echo

Removed sync call that seems to hang due to fd/wd driver interaction..
Now rm /.profile before the cpio floppy is copied in, this should fix
a bugger I was having with an open shell script that gets over written.

101c9192f8 Added DOS partition support and maybe badblock remappping.
The following additional changes are needed for the new install disks:
1) Remove from filesystem disk's /filelist: bin/cat, dev/MAKEDEV.local.
2) Remove from the filesystem disk: /bin/cat, /COPYRIGHT and /dev/MAKEDEV.local.
3) Add to the filesystem disk:  /sbin/fdisk, /dev/fd1a and /dev/rfd1a.
4) Build a fourth DOS disk containing at least: os-bs, rz/sz

Outstanding problems:
1) If there are >1024 cylinders, then FreeBSD cannot boot unless installed
at cylinder 0 (and since neither can DOS evidently, the two can't share
a disk in this case).
2) If FreeBSD is installed at cylinder 0, subsequent installs tend to fail.
3) If a DOS partition exists, disklabel doesn't seem to update the disk
geometry in the FreeBSD disklabel correctly (so reinstalling FreeBSD with
a new geometry requires installing it at cylinder 0).  Rod suggested
invoking disklabel on the raw c-partition.  This makes sense, but it
doesn't seem to work (newfs, for instance, can't find the new label).

641c4965d3 Fixed typo in rm of /tmp/cat, it was rm /bin/cat, whoopsss.... 1993-09-01 01:41:03 +00:00

36502580db Added DEFCYLN, DEFHEAD and DEFSECT parameters to inst1.install, these
are set to 1024/12/17

7882a1f651 Inserted a modified version of /etc/rc so that a fsck is done on reboot
after the cpio floppy has been installed.  This fixes the corrupt disk
problem during the install.  Still need to add some echo's about expecting
disk corruption at this point in time.

Upgraded release statement to say 1.0 GAMMA.  Added a dummy read before
the instuctions so the user does not get confused by the rapid output
and thinks something scrolled off the screen.

4d3ced8b84 Removed Chris D. added --unlink option since our tar does not understand
it.

2b881de69a Added a real ugle hack so that cat, tar and gzip tools used to do the
extract can be over writen.  This is done by coping them to /tmp
before the extract begins, running them from /tmp, then removing them
after the extract has completed.

Removed all section about setting up sendmail.cf, since this was for the
old sendmail stuff and should not be required by the new sendmail.cf file
that is shipped with the system.

44a8c7b9da Heavily modified from NetBSD sources to FreeBSD, many fixes and enhancements,
now users cpio instead of tar.  All displayed references to NetBSD changed
to ${OPSYSTEM}, OPSYSTEM=FreeBSD.
