The mac68k-specific portion of the NetBSD _VER release is found in the "mac68k" subdirectory of the distribution. That subdirectory is laid out as follows: .../NetBSD-_VER/mac68k/ binary/ mac68k binary distribution sets; see below. security/ mac68k security distribution; see below. utils/ The mac68k installation utilities. The NetBSD/mac68k binary distribution sets contain the binaries which comprise the NetBSD _VER release for the mac68k. There are eight binary distribution sets, and the "security" distribution set. The binary distribution sets can be found in subdirectories of the "mac68k/binary" subdirectory of the NetBSD _VER distribution tree, and are as follows: netbsd13 The NetBSD/mac68k _VER kernel binary. You MUST install this file. It is the kernel that you need to boot the system. [ 606K gzipped, 1.32M uncompressed ] base13 The NetBSD/mac68k _VER base binary distribution. You MUST install this distribution set. It contains the base NetBSD utilities that are necessary for the system to run and be minimally functional. It includes shared library support, and excludes everything described below. [ 8.6M gzipped, 25.1M uncompressed ] comp13 The NetBSD/mac68k Compiler tools; all of the tools relating to C and C++. This set includes the system include files (/usr/include), the linker, the compiler tool chain, 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. [ 6.2M gzipped, 21.6M uncompressed ] etc13 This distribution set contains the system configuration 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. (If you are upgrading, it's recommended that you get a copy of this set and CAREFULLY upgrade your configuration files by hand.) [ 49K gzipped, 288K uncompressed ] games13 This set includes the games and their manual pages. [ 2.8M gzipped, 7.2M uncompressed ] man13 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 manual pages that are included in the other sets. [ 2.2M gzipped, 8.8M uncompressed ] misc13 This set includes the system dictionaries (which are rather large), the typesettable document set, and man pages for other architectures which happen to be installed from the source tree by default. [ 2.1M gzipped, 7.6M uncompressed ] text13 This set includes NetBSD's text processing tools, including groff, all related programs, and their manual pages. [ 1.0M gzipped, 3.7M uncompressed ] The mac68k security distribution set is named "secr13" and can be found in the "mac68k/security" subdirectory of the NetBSD _VER distribution tree. It contains the crypt libraries (for the DES encryption algorithm) and the binaries which depend on it. It can only be found on those sites which carry the complete NetBSD distribution and that can legally obtain it. (Remember, because of United States law, it may not be legal to distribute this set to locations outside of the United States and Canada.) [ 779K gzipped, 2.5M uncompressed ] The mac68k binary distribution sets are distributed as full .tar.gz files (without that extension). 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 files are extracted "below" the current directory. That is, if you want to extract the binaries "into" your system, i.e. replace the system binaries with them, you have to run the "tar xfp" from /. Also note that if you upgrade or install this way, those programs that you are using at the time will NOT be replaced. If you follow the normal installation or upgrade procedures, this will be taken care of for you.
