INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR FreeBSD 1.0 GAMMA
|
||||
|
||||
IDE/ST506/Adaptec 1542{A,B,C}/Adaptec 1742A: kcopy-ah-floppy
|
||||
Welcome to FreeBSD! This document has been put together in an effort
|
||||
to make initial installation of the system as easy as possible.
|
||||
|
||||
Bustek 742a/UltraStore {14,34}F: kcopy-bt-floppy
|
||||
1. To install FreeBSD you will need 3 floppies, as well as the bulk of
|
||||
the distribution on some other medium (floppy, tape, CD, etc). If
|
||||
you've retrieved this release from the net, you'll first have to make
|
||||
the floppies yourself using the supplied images.
|
||||
|
||||
2. When that floppy asks you to insert the file system floppy insert
|
||||
the floppy labeled file filesystem-floppy. Follow the instructions
|
||||
that floppy gives you. Note what type of disk that it says to
|
||||
copy the kernel to (sd0a or wd0a.) When it halts go to the next step.
|
||||
Due to the differences in PC configurations, we've found it necessary
|
||||
to provide multiple initial boot images that provide kernels for
|
||||
different types of systems.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Boot the same floppy you used in step one, this time when it asks
|
||||
you to insert the file system floppy just press the return key.
|
||||
Follow the instructions that the floppy gives you. Basically
|
||||
type copy at the ``kc>'' prompt, then either ``sd0a'' or ``wd0a''
|
||||
at the ``copy kernel to>'' prompt. When it halts go to the next step.
|
||||
If your disk controller is one of:
|
||||
|
||||
4. Remove all floppies from the drive, then press return to boot from
|
||||
the hard disk. After it has booted and is asking what drive the
|
||||
cpio floppy is in insert the floppy labeled cpio-floppy into a
|
||||
IDE/ST506
|
||||
Adaptec 1542{A,B,C}
|
||||
Adaptec 1742A
|
||||
|
||||
Then please use the disk image: kcopy-ah-floppy
|
||||
to construct your boot floppy.
|
||||
|
||||
If your disk controller is one of:
|
||||
|
||||
Bustek 742a
|
||||
UltraStore {14,34}F
|
||||
|
||||
Then please use the disk image: kcopy-bt-floppy
|
||||
to construct your boot floppy.
|
||||
|
||||
Next, make a second floppy from the disk image: filesystem-floppy
|
||||
You'll need this for the second stage of the boot process.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, make a third floppy from the disk image: cpio-floppy
|
||||
You'll need this for the last stage of the boot process.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Boot the first floppy. When it asks you to insert the file system,
|
||||
insert your second "filesystem-floppy." Follow the instructions
|
||||
that floppy gives you, making note of the type of disk it says to
|
||||
copy the kernel to, `sd0a' or `wd0a' (`sd0a' is for SCSI systems,
|
||||
`wd0a' is for all others.) When the system halts, go on to the next step.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Boot the first floppy again, but this time when it asks
|
||||
you to insert the file system floppy, just press the return key.
|
||||
Follow the instructions that the floppy gives you. When you see
|
||||
the `kc>' prompt, type `copy' (without quotes). At the next prompt,
|
||||
`copy kernel to>', type either `sd0a' or `wd0a' as given in
|
||||
the previous step. When the system halts, go on to the next step.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Making sure that there's no floppy in the drive, press return to boot
|
||||
from the hard disk. After it has booted and is asking what drive the
|
||||
cpio floppy is in, insert the third floppy (cpio-floppy) into a
|
||||
floppy drive and answer the question about what drive it is in.
|
||||
Note that 0 is the same as DOS drive A:, and 1 is the same as DOS
|
||||
drive B:
|
||||
|
||||
5. After the cpio-floppy has been copied to the disk enter ``halt''.

|

|

6. Remove the cpio-floppy from the drive after the system has asked
|

you to press the return key to reboot, but before you press the
|
||||
return key. Press the return key to boot again from the hard

|

remove the floppy and then press the return key to boot from the hard

disk.

7. At this point you will get 4 errors from the fsck on boot, this
|
||||
is expected and is caused by files that where open when the
|
||||
/dev entries where built. The system will correct these and then
|
||||
halt. After it has halted, just press the return key to reboot
|
||||
again.

/dev entries were built - just ignore them. The system will

correct these errors and then halt, after which you should press

the return key again to reboot with a clean system.

13. You are now running FreeBSD! Congradulations! You may now continue

with installing the source distribution, or stop here for now.

Should you decided to postpone further installation, you should
|

probably save the "installing profile" for possible future use by
|

saving it and linking a default profile into place.

Do it like this:

packages, such as X11 and TeX, may be obtained from freebsd.cdrom.com -

please have a look around! You may also find this a good time to

read the release notes in /usr/src/RELNOTES.FreeBSD.
