28The NetBSD/mac68k system binaries include the NetBSD/mac68k binary
29distribution sets, additional kernels, and security-related system
30binaries.  The NetBSD _VER release for the mac68k port is comprised of
31those files found in the "mac68k/binary/sets" subdirectory of the NetBSD
32_VER distribution tree.  There are seven system distribution sets, two
33kernel distribution sets, and five X distribution sets.  The files in the
34"sets" subdirectory are as follows:
35
36	CKSUMS		checksums for the various files in the "sets"
37			directory, in the default format produced by the
38			cksum(1) command
39
40	base.tgz	The NetBSD/mac68k _VER base binary distribution.
41			You MUST install this distribution set.  It
42			contains the base NetBSD utilities that are
43			necessary for the system to run and be minimally
44			functional.  It includes shared library support,
45			and excludes everything described below.
46			[ 8.6M gzipped, 25.1M uncompressed ]
47
48	comp.tgz	The NetBSD/mac68k Compiler tools; all of the tools
49			relating to C and C++.  This set includes the
50			system include files (/usr/include), the linker,
51			the compiler tool chain, and the various system
52			libraries (except the shared libraries, which are
53			included as part of the base set).  This set also
54			includes the manual pages for all of the utilities
55			it contains, as well as the system call and library
56			manual pages. 
57			[ 6.2M gzipped, 21.6M uncompressed ]
58
59	etc.tgz		This distribution set contains the system
60			configuration files that reside in /etc and in
61			several other places.  This set MUST be installed
62			if you are installing the system from scratch, but
63			should NOT be used if you are upgrading.  (If you
64			are upgrading, it's recommended that you get a copy
65			of this set and CAREFULLY upgrade your
66			configuration files by hand.) 
67			[ 49K gzipped, 288K uncompressed ]
68
69	games.tgz	This set includes the games and their manual pages.
70			[ 2.8M gzipped, 7.2M uncompressed ]
71
72	kern_sbc.tgz
73	kern.tgz	The NetBSD/mac68k _VER kernel binary.  You MUST
74			install this file.  It is the kernel that you need
75			to boot the system.  If you experience SCSI-related
76			difficulties with your 68030-based system, you
77			might want to try kern_sbc.tgz instead.
78			[ 606K gzipped, 1.32M uncompressed ]
79
80	man.tgz		This set includes all of the manual pages for the
81			binaries and other software contained in the base
82			set.  Note that it does not include any of the
83			manual pages that are included in the other sets. 
84			[ 2.2M gzipped, 8.8M uncompressed ]
85
86	misc.tgz	This set includes the system dictionaries (which
87			are rather large), the typesettable document set,
88			and man pages for other architectures which happen
89			to be installed from the source tree by default. 
90			[ 2.1M gzipped, 7.6M uncompressed ]
91
92	text.tgz	This set includes NetBSD's text processing tools,
93			including groff, all related programs, and their
94			manual pages.

97The NetBSD/mac68k binary distribution sets contain the binaries which
98comprise the NetBSD _VER release for the mac68k.  There are eight binary
99distribution sets, and the "security" distribution set.  The binary
100distribution sets can be found in subdirectories of the "mac68k/binary"
101subdirectory of the NetBSD _VER distribution tree, and are as follows:

156The mac68k security distribution set is named "secr13" and can be found
157in the "mac68k/security" subdirectory of the NetBSD _VER distribution
158tree.  It contains the crypt libraries (for the DES encryption algorithm)
159and the binaries which depend on it.  It can only be found on those sites
160which carry the complete NetBSD distribution and that can legally obtain
161it.  (Remember, because of United States law, it may not be legal to
162distribute this set to locations outside of the United States and Canada.)

255The NetBSD/mac68k security distribution set is named "secr.tgz" and can be
256found in the "mac68k/binary/security" subdirectory of the NetBSD _VER
257distribution tree.  It contains the crypt libraries (for the DES encryption
258algorithm) and the binaries built from the "src/domestic" portion of the
259NetBSD source tree which depend on it.  It can only be found on those sites
260which carry the complete NetBSD distribution and that can legally obtain

262distribute this set to locations outside of the United States and Canada.)
263[ 779K gzipped, 2.5M uncompressed ]
264
265The mac68k binary distribution sets are distributed as full .tar.gz files
266(with the extension .tgz because the software used to download the sets may
267incorrectly auto-unpack files ending in .gz and to accomodate systems which
268only support 3 character extensions to file names).  The instructions
269given for extracting the source sets work equally well for the binary sets,
270but it is worth noting that if you use that method, the files are extracted
271"below" the current directory.  That is, if you want to extract the
272binaries "into" your system, i.e. replace the system binaries with them,
273you have to run the "tar xpf" from /.  Also note that if you upgrade or
274install this way, those programs that you are using at the time will NOT be
275replaced.  If you follow the normal installation or upgrade procedures,
276this will be taken care of for you.
277
278Additional kernels to those included in the distribution sets may be found
279in the "mac68k/binary/kernels" subdirectory of the NetBSD _VER distribution
280tree.  These kernels are generally named something like "netbsd-GENERIC.gz"
281or some other suitable name.  Please note that these kernels are simply
282gzipped and are not in tar archives.  A CKSUM file is included in this
283directory as well.
284
285The MacOS-based utilities necessary for installing and running NetBSD can
286be found in the "mac68k/installation/misc" subdirectory of the NetBSD
287_VER distribution tree.  The important files in this directory are as
288follows: 
289
290	Booter.sea.hqx		The NetBSD/Mac68k Booter utility.  This
291				program is used to boot the NetBSD kernel
292				from within MacOS.
293				[ 141 K archived ]
294
295	Installer.sea.hqx	The NetBSD/Mac68k Installer utility.  This
296				program is used to install the distribution
297				sets onto your NetBSD partition(s).
298				[ 147 K archived ]
299
300	Mkfs.sea.hqx		The Mkfs utility.  This program is used to
301				format your chosen partitions so that they
302				can be used with NetBSD.
303				[ 76 K archived ]
304
305These files are all binhexed, self-extracting archives.  If you need them,
306the sources for these utilities are in the "src" subdirectory.

308The mac68k binary distribution sets are distributed as full .tar.gz
309files (without that extension).  The instructions given for extracting
310the source sets work equally well for the binary sets, but it is worth
311noting that if you use that method, the files are extracted "below" the
312current directory.  That is, if you want to extract the binaries "into"
313your system, i.e. replace the system binaries with them, you have to run

318=======
319The NetBSD _VER distribution includes a full X11 build for NetBSD/mac68k
320systems.  Except for some minor changes to facilitate building under
321NetBSD in general, the X clients and related libraries were built "out of
322the box" from an XFree86 3.3.1 tree, which in turn was based on X11R6.3.
323The binaries were built on, and require, a NetBSD/mac68k _VER system.  The
324mac68k X distribution sets can be found in the "mac68k/X11" subdirectory
325of the NetBSD _VER distribution tree, and are as follows:
326
327        xbase13		X clients, shared libraries, and related man pages.

346The mac68k binary distribution sets are distributed as full .tar.gz files
