I tried to install NetBSD 1.3 i386 recently, and some of the device drivers that are on my PC didn't support it (ethernet, etc).

I've had this problem before. Check your hard drive and make shure it is *correctly* jumpered for master, slave, or single. It may boot up into windows when its incorrectly jumpered as master with a slave when it has non or master without a slave when there is one, but freebsd is more picky. -Jason- From owner-freebsd-doc Fri Jan 16 02:43:12 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id CAA05383 for freebsd-doc-outgoing; Fri, 16 Jan 1998 02:43:12 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from nts351.sowah.com.hk ([202.85.47.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id CAA05379 for ; Fri, 16 Jan 1998 02:43:03 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from kho@sowah.com) Received: from sqlserver (unverified [202.85.47.9]) by nts351.sowah.com.hk (EMWAC SMTPRS 0.83) with SMTP id ; Fri, 16 Jan 1998 18:38:41 +0800 Message-ID: Comments: Authenticated sender is From: "Ho Chun-kit, Keith" Organization: SOWAh [H.K} Limited To: freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Fri, 16 Jan 1998 18:23:25 +0800 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Subject: help me X-mailer: Pegasus Mail for Windows (v2.54) Sender: owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Dear sir, Hello!

Keep planning ;) Seriously, ITYM FreeBSD 2.2.5. And it's not really difficult. The only hard bit for you is to create boot floppies, since you say you don't have any OS on the PC. So find a friend who does... or who can lend you a DOS boot floppy. And get a CD-ROM drive (or a real computer if your PC is to old to support one). Sheesh, we're three years short of the third millenium and you don't have a CD-ROM drive? Seriously (I seem to say that a lot, don't I?), you have three choices: a floppy install (you really, really don't want to do that), a CD-ROM install (if you can get a CD-ROM drive for your PC) or an ftp install, either by modem through your ISP (slow and costly), or by setting up an FTP server on your Mac. If I recall correctly, /stand/sysinstall will expect the distribution files to be in a directory named 2.2.5-RELEASE relative to the URL you specify. HTH.

I've just finished and uploaded a new version of my tutorial/HOWTO explaining how to upgrade a FreeBSD installation after downloading the source code. Changes with this new version include: * Examples are no longer specific to FreeBSD 2.1.7. Instead, different sections cover different versions of FreeBSD from 2.0 to -current. * Wrote and include a script (dircmp.pl) to compare the files in two directories. Similar to (but with a more limited scope than) Matthew Thyer's 'etcud' script. * Updated "Building on an NFS server, installing on a client" section to cover the 'buildworld' and 'installworld' targets on 2.2.5 and above. * Added a new FAQ, "How can I speed up making the world?" based on comments and suggestions from the mailing lists. * Noted the 'optional-ness' of building in single user mode. * Fixed numerous small typos and general tidying up. The tutorial is (currently) available from http://www.nothing-going-on.demon.co.uk/FreeBSD/make-world/make-world.html The version on the FreeBSD site should be updated shortly. -- --+==[ Nik Clayton is Just Another Perl Hacker at Interactive Investor ]==+-- . . . and relax From owner-freebsd-doc Mon Jan 19 01:31:42 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id BAA11483 for freebsd-doc-outgoing; Mon, 19 Jan 1998 01:31:42 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from tyree.iii.co.uk (tyree.iii.co.uk [193.117.77.66]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id BAA11479 for ; Mon, 19 Jan 1998 01:31:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from nik@iii.co.uk) From: nik@iii.co.uk Received: from carrig.strand.iii.co.uk (carrig.strand.iii.co.uk [192.168.7.25]) by tyree.iii.co.uk (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA16936 for ; Mon, 19 Jan 1998 09:26:45 GMT Received: (from nik@localhost) by carrig.strand.iii.co.uk (8.8.7/8.8.7) id JAA08447; Mon, 19 Jan 1998 09:32:23 GMT Message-ID: <19980119093222.00633@iii.co.uk> Date: Mon, 19 Jan 1998 09:32:22 +0000 To: doc@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: "Upgrade from source" tutorial Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.85e Organization: interactive investor Sender: owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hi, As per my earlier announcement I've just finished and uploaded the latest version of my "How to upgrade from source" tutorial. Currently, it's on my own webspace at my ISP. What would the documentation powers that be like me to do with it now? Specifically, the tutorial 'package' consists of: - An SGML source file (marked up with DocBook) - A translation of this file to HTML - A Makefile to simplify the translation process - A Perl script to assist in finding files that have changed in /etc between upgrades If possible, I'd like to see it folded into the handbook as a part of the "Staying current with FreeBSD" section. This is work I can (probably) do myself. I now have a dial-up Internet connection and sufficient resources to maintain local copies of the 'src' and 'doc' CVS repositories. This would also let me assist in the LinuxDoc -> DocBook conversion project. Alternatively, I can provide a diff to the HTML (or SGML) source that's currently on the FreeBSD site and submit it with send-pr. Or the link on the FreeBSD site at could be changed just to point to my copy.

The problem coming down the pipe with the full locale specification is cases where there may be numerous locales for any given language. Right now there are 4 de locales, 4 en locales, 4 fr locales, 2 it locales, and 2 nl locales that differ only in the country specification. While genuine language/dialect differences do exist in some cases, how likely is it that de_CH is going to produce a different set of translations that de_DE? Encoding may still be an issue, but how big of an issue? In the web/mail/news environment, documents can be self-identifying. Can a man program detect EUC versus SJIS input and convert on-the-fly to the active locale encoding if necessary? (Am I correct in believing that EUC -> SJIS -> EUC is a "lossless" conversion?) I have also been pondering the implications moving the english docs (and web pages) into an en subdirectory. In the web context, URLs without a language qualifier could be redirected to the language of the mirror's choice. -john From owner-freebsd-doc Thu Jan 22 13:32:37 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA22798 for freebsd-doc-outgoing; Thu, 22 Jan 1998 13:32:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from easy.stallion.com (easy.stallion.com [204.31.184.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id NAA22792 for ; Thu, 22 Jan 1998 13:32:35 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gerg@stallion.com) Received: from staltec.stallion.com by easy.stallion.com id aa13648; 22 Jan 98 11:32 PST Received: from willy.stallion.oz.au by staltec.stallion.com id aa11948; 22 Jan 98 11:41 PST Message-ID: <34C69417.161@stallion.com> Date: Thu, 22 Jan 1998 11:34:31 +1100 From: Greg Ungerer Reply-To: gerg@stallion.com Organization: Stallion Technologies X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.0 (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG CC: gerg@stallion.com Subject: update for hardware vendores web page (on www.freebsd.org) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hi, I would like to suggest an update for the Hardware Vendors page on the www.freebsd.org web site.

The Stallion driver ftp file address should really read: ftp://ftp.stallion.com/drivers/unsupported/freebsd/stalbsd-current.tar.gz This link will always point to the latest version of the drivers.

All FreeBSD man pages in Japanese are EUC-encoded. And I want to continue to maintain only EUC-encoded man pages. I do not say that I do not want to support ja_JP.SJIS locale.

(Plain copying the boot.flp file to disk is not an option). Boot from the floppy you just wrote. Use the menus, and you're ready to go! Eivind.

Ok, I have a P166 with one hard drive(2GB). My OS is Windows 95. When I first booted with the installation disk everything worked fine. Then I got to this disk partition stuff and got worried I was going to wipe out my hard drive. My hard drive showed up with three splits, or slices or whatever you call them. One had a number 60 beside and was marked unused, the middle one had a real big number and fat written out beside it (I assume this is where Windows and all the other stuff is), and the last one had a 5050 number beside and was also marked unused. Ok so I pick the bigger unused and then went to the disk label screen. I noticed this was only 1MB of space but I tried it anyway. I hit the "A" for auto but it said it couldn't create the root partition(Too Big?). What does that mean? At this point I got real worried and decided to read some more of the documentation on the net. I read about the FIPS utility and downloaded it. I ran it from DOS and created a partition from the so called "fat" part. This time the split or slice was a lot bigger in size. I then ran the boot installation disk again to see what changes the FIPS utility program had done. Now I was showing four slices including the one extra I had just created. The one I had just created had a number like 880880 beside it and is about 43MB in size. After marking it for Freebsd I went to the disk label screen and hit "A" again for automatic defaults and again got the error "Can not create root partition. Too Big? I have know idea what this means. Anyway, I need help if I'm going to attempt to install this again. I couldn't find any of your documentation that was spelled out simple enough for how to load FreeBSD without destroying Windows95 or any other files. I cannot do this until I'm sure I'm not going to get rid of everything in the process. Another question I have is if you dedicate the entire disk to FreeBsd but you select Yes when it prompts you if you want the disk to stay compatible with other OS's does this erase Win95 or does it just find the free space it needs without removing your files. Can someone please help? Thanks! Ryan
