any way I can. Converted all echo "" to be just echo
Removed sync call that seems to hang due to fd/wd driver interaction..
Now rm /.profile before the cpio floppy is copied in, this should fix
a bugger I was having with an open shell script that gets over written.
after all. Removed it from DOS floppy.
Added COPYRIGHT to DOS floppy since it does have *BSD binaries on it!
Fixed missing ; \ when creating dev entries on filesystem floppy
Fixed rm in wrong directory, please don't rm in the DESTDIR area!!
That is because TIOCMGET was broken. Yes...this is known for some time
and no, we (Bruce and me) never posted it. Why? Simply because we choose
to post fixes when we fixed most of the bugs.
Anyway..now that the slip problems are coming, here is a fix for
correct TIOCMGET behaviour.
-Guido
Note: this should be tested first (Rich?). Tested by rgrimes
in your config file from:
device cd0
device cd1
...
device cdn
to either
device cd0
or
psuedo-device cd0
The driver now dynamically allocates all per unit dependent structs, so it
will never run out of units (okay, so now we need 32 bit device major/minor
numbers!). It will allocate unit numbers as it needs them.
1) fixed 3c503 lock-up if the thinwire cable was disconnected at boot time
2) 8013EBT boards now work (quite well!) in 16bit/16k mode
3) ED_NO_DOUBLE_BUFFERING flag now works
4) slightly higer performance (about 3%) with 16bit WD/SMC boards
5) support for WD8013WC (10BaseT) boards
Additionally, the probe code has been reorganized to be much cleaner. This
revision of the driver is 1.25. The release notes have been updated as well.
going to panic shortly after this anyway. Destroys less state, and
keeps the machine from waiting for someone to smash the return key
a few times before it panics!
Subject: Install.notes for FreeBSD-1.0-G
Here is the hacked install notes file for FreeBSD-1.0-GAMMA.
Please get someone to check the few points marked <<please check>>.
From: rgrimes
Checked the <<please check>>, and cleaned up some details.
data. cd_data is now malloced on a per unit basis.
Protected all if ({scsi,cd}_debug).... with #ifdef CDDEBUG to reduce the
the size of the kernel when not debugging.

4. Move printf("\n"); at line 491 in "/sys/i386/isa/sio.c" to after
COM_MULTIPORT block at line 512.
From rgrimes:
The above would cause the word (multiport) with out a new line to
appear after the uart type message if you had COM_MULTIPORT enabled.
and miscellaneous programs which get installed into /usr/distbin.
Install now recognizes existing DOS partitions and attempts to install
after them. Theoretically, it also remaps badblocks.
N.B.: The fourth install floppy must have a clean DOS FAT.
Building the new distribution floppies is untested
TODO: Build a disktab entry for existing DOS partitions (except extended
partitions). This would allow loading and/or extracting the distribution
files directly from the DOS hard disk partition.
-q turns on "quiet" mode, where informational headers and such are not
dumped, just the information.
-L Shows full pathnames of files comprising a package. With -q,
this can be useful for doing fileset operations, such as
"du -s `pkg_info -q -L foo_bin`" to see how much space package
"foo_bin" is taking up.
The following additional changes are needed for the new install disks:
1) Remove from filesystem disk's /filelist: bin/cat, dev/MAKEDEV.local.
2) Remove from the filesystem disk: /bin/cat, /COPYRIGHT and /dev/MAKEDEV.local.
3) Add to the filesystem disk: /sbin/fdisk, /dev/fd1a and /dev/rfd1a.
4) Build a fourth DOS disk containing at least: os-bs, rz/sz
Outstanding problems:
1) If there are >1024 cylinders, then FreeBSD cannot boot unless installed
at cylinder 0 (and since neither can DOS evidently, the two can't share
a disk in this case).
2) If FreeBSD is installed at cylinder 0, subsequent installs tend to fail.
3) If a DOS partition exists, disklabel doesn't seem to update the disk
geometry in the FreeBSD disklabel correctly (so reinstalling FreeBSD with
a new geometry requires installing it at cylinder 0). Rod suggested
invoking disklabel on the raw c-partition. This makes sense, but it
doesn't seem to work (newfs, for instance, can't find the new label).
