One is for a floppy boot and is split into three separate files. The other is a single-file image containing the same install kernel, but intended to be written to a CD, tape, or hard drive. The third image is a .Li GENERIC kernel intended for production use in unusual cases. This can be useful at some sites when: .(bullet You want to run diskless but SRM bugs prevent the firmware from netbooting. You can work around this problem by always booting the generic kernel from the floppy. .It SRM doesn't recognize your (hard) disk controller but .Nx does. This happens more frequently than you might think. SRM will usually only boot from .Xr siop 4 or .Xr isp 4 SCSI devices, and on most platforms will not boot from an IDE drive. .Nx will happily operate with almost any SCSI root or an IDE root; the solution here is to netboot a kernel or always boot from floppy. .bullet) . .\" ------------------------------------------------------------------ . . .Ss2 Binary distribution sets .\" .\" ------------------------------------------------------------------ .\" XXX: most sets except kern and xserver should be in notes/common .\" The .Nx \*M binary distribution sets contain the binaries which comprise the .Nx \*V release for \*M.

Bootable installation/upgrade floppies: There is a bootable floppy disk image available which contains the software necessary to prepare your hard drive for NetBSD and install the NetBSD distribution, or to upgrading an already installed system from a previous version of NetBSD. Because the kernel on the installation disks is not suitable for use beyond initial installation and configuration, a "generic" kernel has been placed in a distribution set named "kern". This kernel is intended to run your system while you build a custom kernel. It is strongly encouraged that you build a custom kernel for your installation rather than use the prebuilt generic kernel on a long term basis. Please note that the INSTALL kernel (which is booted from the install floppy or the network) is not usable for anything other than installing; it will always use as root an internal ramdisk with the install tools. Also, currently the INSTALL image only supports systems that are likely to have a floppy drive (the NoName, EB64+, EB164, AS500/600; the DECStation 3000 systems and the 8200/8400 are not supported by this floppy). If booting the INSTALL kernel from the network proves popular, we will generate another network version of the INSTALL kernel that supports more systems. The alpha toolchain: The toolchain (compiler, assembler, linker, etc.) for the alpha port is not yet integrated into the main NetBSD source tree, so the sources for it are distributed separately. This source code should be unpacked into /usr/local/toolchain. Unlink some previous distributions, in this release the toolchain binaries are not distributed in a toolchain set intended to be installed into /usr/local, but this time are installed into /usr/bin and are distributed in the standard comp.tgz binary distribution set as with other NetBSD platforms. The NetBSD/alpha binary distribution sets contain the binaries which comprise the NetBSD _VER release for the alpha. There are eight binary distribution sets and the "security" distribution set. The binary distribution sets can be found in the "alpha/binary/sets" subdirectory of the NetBSD _VER distribution tree, and are as follows: base The NetBSD/alpha _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.

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).
