|
||||
.Os
|
||||
.Sh NAME
|
||||
.Nm bsdinstall
|
||||
.Nd system installer
|
||||
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
||||
.Nm
|
||||
.Op Ar target
|
||||
.Op Ar ...
|
||||
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||||
.Nm
|
||||
is used for installation of new systems, both for system setup from
|
||||
installation media (e.g. CD-ROMs) and for use on live systems to prepare
|
||||
VM images and jails.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
Much like
|
||||
.Xr make 1 , Nm
|
||||
takes a target and possible parameters of the target as arguments. If
|
||||
invoked with no arguments, it will invoke the
|
||||
.Cm auto
|
||||
target, which provides a standard interactive installation, invoking the
|
||||
others in sequence. To perform a scripted installation, these subtargets
|
||||
can be invoked separately by an installation script.
|
||||
.Sh TARGETS
|
||||
Most of the following targets are only useful for scripting the installer.
|
||||
For interactive use, most users will be interested only in the
|
||||
.Cm auto
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Cm jail
|
||||
targets.
|
||||
.Bl -tag -width ".Cm jail Ar destination"
|
||||
.It Cm auto
|
||||
Run the standard interactive installation, including disk partitioning.
|
||||
.It Cm jail Ar destination
|
||||
Sets up a new chroot system at
|
||||
.Pa destination ,
|
||||
suitable for use with
|
||||
.Xr jail 8 .
|
||||
Behavior is generally similar to
|
||||
.Cm auto ,
|
||||
except that disk partitioning and network setup are skipped and a kernel is
|
||||
not installed into the new system.
|
||||
.It Cm keymap
|
||||
If the current controlling TTY is a
|
||||
.Xr syscons 4
|
||||
console, asks the user to set the current keymap, and saves the result to the
|
||||
new system's
|
||||
.Pa rc.conf .
|
||||
.It Cm hostname
|
||||
Prompts the user for a host name for the new system and saves the result to the
|
||||
new system's
|
||||
.Pa rc.conf .
|
||||
If
|
||||
.Ev BSDINSTALL_CONFIGCURRENT
|
||||
is set, also sets the host name of the current system.
|
||||
.It Cm netconfig
|
||||
Interactively configures network interfaces (first invoking
|
||||
.Cm wlanconfig
|
||||
on wireless interfaces), saving the result to the new system's
|
||||
.Pa rc.conf
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Pa resolv.conf .
|
||||
If
|
||||
.Ev BSDINSTALL_CONFIGCURRENT
|
||||
is set, also configures the network interfaces of the current system to match.
|
||||
.It Cm autopart
|
||||
Provides the installer's interactive guided disk partitioner for single-disk
|
||||
installations. Partitions disks, runs
|
||||
.Xr newfs 8 ,
|
||||
and writes the new system's
|
||||
.Pa fstab .
|
||||
.It Cm partedit
|
||||
Provides the installer's interactive manual disk partitioner, with support
|
||||
for multi disk setups, non-UFS file systems, and manual selection of
|
||||
partition schemes. Partitions disks, runs
|
||||
.Xr newfs 8 ,
|
||||
and writes the new system's
|
||||
.Pa fstab .
|
||||
.It Cm mount
|
||||
Mounts the file systems previously configured by
|
||||
.Cm autopart
|
||||
or
|
||||
.Cm partedit
|
||||
under
|
||||
.Ev BSDINSTALL_CHROOT .
|
||||
.It Cm distfetch
|
||||
Fetches the distributions in
|
||||
.Ev DISTRIBUTIONS
|
||||
to
|
||||
.Ev BSDINSTALL_DISTDIR
|
||||
from
|
||||
.Ev BSDINSTALL_DISTSITE .
|
||||
.It Cm checksum
|
||||
Verifies the checksums of the distributions listed in
|
||||
.Ev DISTRIBUTIONS
|
||||
against the distribution manifest.
|
||||
.It Cm distextract
|
||||
Extracts the distributions listed in
|
||||
.Ev DISTRIBUTIONS
|
||||
into
|
||||
.Ev BSDINSTALL_CHROOT .
|
||||
.It Cm rootpass
|
||||
Interactively invokes
|
||||
.Xr passwd 1
|
||||
in the new system to set the root user's password.
|
||||
.It Cm adduser
|
||||
Interactively invokes
|
||||
.Xr adduser 8
|
||||
in the new system.
|
||||
.It Cm time
|
||||
Interactively sets the time, date, and time zone of the new system.
|
||||
.It Cm services
|
||||
Queries the user for the system daemons to begin at system startup,
|
||||
writing the result into the new system's
|
||||
.Pa rc.conf .
|
||||
.It Cm config
|
||||
Installs the configuration files destined for the new system (e.g. rc.conf
|
||||
fragments generated by
|
||||
.Cm netconfig ,
|
||||
etc.) onto the new system.
|
||||
.El
|
||||
.Sh ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
|
||||
The following environment variables control various aspects of the installation
|
||||
process. Many are used internally during installation and have reasonable
|
||||
default values for most installation scenarios. Others are set by various
|
||||
interactive user prompts, and can be usefully overridden when making scripted
|
||||
or customized installers.
|
||||
.Bl -tag -width ".Ev BSDINSTALL_DISTDIR"
|
||||
.It Ev DISTRIBUTIONS
|
||||
The set of distributions to install (e.g. "base kernel ports"). Default: none
|
||||
.It Ev BSDINSTALL_DISTDIR
|
||||
The directory in which the distribution files can be found (or to which they
|
||||
should be downloaded). Default:
|
||||
.Pa /usr/freebsd-dist
|
||||
.It Ev BSDINSTALL_CHROOT
|
||||
The directory into which the distribution files should be unpacked and the
|
||||
directory at which the root file system of the new system should be mounted.
|
||||
Default:
|
||||
.Pa /mnt
|
||||
.It Ev BSDINSTALL_LOG
|
||||
Path to a log file for the installation. Default:
|
||||
.Pa /tmp/bsdinstall_log
|
||||
.It Ev BSDINSTALL_TMPETC
|
||||
Directory where files destined for the new system's
|
||||
.Pa /etc
|
||||
will be stored until the
|
||||
.Cm config
|
||||
target is executed. If this directory does not already exist, it will be
|
||||
created. Default:
|
||||
.Pa /tmp/bsdinstall_etc
