The
NetBSD
Operating System is a fully functional
Open Source
UNIX-like
operating system derived from the University of California, Berkeley
Networking Release 2 (Net/2), 4.4BSD-Lite, and 4.4BSD-Lite2 sources.
NetBSD
runs on thirty-one different system architectures featuring twelve distinct
families of CPUs, and is being ported to more. The
NetBSD1.5
release contains complete binary releases for fifteen different
machine types. (The sixteen remaining are not fully supported at this time
and are thus not part of the binary distribution. For information on
them, please see the
NetBSD
web site at
http://www.netbsd.org/)
NetBSD
is a completely integrated system.
In addition to its highly portable, high performance kernel,
NetBSD
features a complete set of user utilities, compilers for several
languages, the X Window System, firewall software
and numerous other tools, all accompanied by full source code.
NetBSD
is a creation of the members of the Internet community.
Without the unique cooperation and coordination the net makes
possible, it's likely that
NetBSD
wouldn't exist.
The
NetBSD1.5
release
provides numerous significant functional enhancements, including
support for many new devices, integration of hundreds of bug fixes,
new and updated kernel subsystems, and many userland enhancements. The
result of these improvements is a stable operating system fit for
production use that rivals most commercially available systems.
It is impossible to completely summarize over one year of
development that went into the
NetBSD1.5
release. Some highlights include:
As has been noted, there have also been innumerable bug fixes.
Kernel interfaces have continued to be refined, and more subsystems
and device drivers are shared among the different ports. You can look
for this trend to continue.
This is the fifth major release of
NetBSD
for the DECstation and DECsystem family of computers.
Some pmax-specific changes from the previous major release include:
The
NetBSD
Foundation has been incorporated as a non-profit
organization. Its purpose is to encourage, foster and promote the
free exchange of computer software, namely the
NetBSD
Operating
System. The foundation will allow for many things to be handled more
smoothly than could be done with our previous informal organization.
In particular, it provides the framework to deal with other parties
that wish to become involved in the
NetBSD
Project.
The
NetBSD
Foundation will help improve the quality of
NetBSD
by:
We intend to begin narrowing the time delay between releases. Our
ambition is to provide a full release every six to eight months.
We hope to support even
more
hardware in the future, and we have a
rather large number of other ideas about what can be done to improve
NetBSD.
We intend to continue our current practice of making the
NetBSD-current development source available on a daily basis.
We intend to integrate free, positive changes from whatever sources
submit them, providing that they are well thought-out and increase the
usability of the system.
Above all, we hope to create a stable and accessible system, and to be
responsive to the needs and desires of
NetBSD
users, because it is for
and because of them that
NetBSD
exists.
Refer to
http://www.netbsd.org/Sites/net.html.
The root directory of the
NetBSD1.5
release is organized as follows:
In addition to the files and directories listed above, there is one
directory per architecture, for each of the architectures for which
NetBSD1.5
has a binary distribution.
There are also
The source distribution sets can be found in subdirectories of the
All the above source sets are located in the
The source sets are distributed as compressed tar files. They may be
unpacked into
The
The split distributions may be reassembled and extracted with
cat
as follows:
In each of the source distribution set directories, there are
files which contain the checksums of the files in the directory:
The MD5 digest is the safest checksum, followed by the POSIX
checksum. The other two checksums are provided only to ensure
that the widest possible range of system can check the integrity
of the release files.
NetBSD
maintains its own set of sources for the X Window System in order to
assure tight integration and compatibility.
These sources are based on XFree86, and tightly track XFree86 releases.
They are currently equivalent to XFree86 3.3.6.
Binary sets for the X Window system are distributed with
NetBSD.
The sets are:
The pmax binary distribution sets are distributed as gzipped tar files
named with the extension
.tgz, e.g.
The instructions given for extracting the source sets work equally
well for the binary sets, but it is worth noting that if you use that
method, the files are
The minimal configuration requires 8 MB of RAM and ~60 MB of disk space.
To install the entire system requires much more disk space, and to run
X or compile the system, more RAM is recommended, as
NetBSD
with 8 MB of RAM feels like
Ultrix
with 8 MB of RAM - slow.
Note that until you have around 16 MB of RAM, getting more RAM is more
important than getting a faster CPU.
First-time installation on a bare machine is not supported, because most
DECstations do not have any suitable load device.
Some versions of the DECstation PROM are buggy and will not boot via
TFTP
and bootp; other versions are buggy and do not boot via
MOP.
The only DECstation with a floppy-disk drive is the Personal DECstation,
and that device is not supported as a boot device.
The recommended installation procedure is to boot an install kernel
via
TFTP,
or to use a
``helper''
system to write a miniroot diskimage onto a disk, move that
disk to the target installation system, and then boot the miniroot.
Installation is supported from several media types, including:
The steps necessary to prepare the distribution sets for installation
depend upon which installation medium you choose.
The steps for the various media are outlined below.
Proceed to the instruction on installation.
Once you have this information, you can proceed to the next
step in the installation or upgrade process.
If you're installing
NetBSD
from scratch, go to the section on preparing your hard disk, below.
If you're upgrading an existing installation, go directly to
the section on upgrading.
You need to know the numeric IP address of the NFS server,
and, if the server is not on a network directly connected to
the machine on which you're installing or upgrading
NetBSD,
you need to know the numeric IP address of the router closest
to the
NetBSD
machine.
Finally, you need to know the numeric IP address of the
NetBSD
machine itself.
Once the NFS server is set up properly and you have the
information mentioned above, you can proceed to the next step
in the installation or upgrade process.
If you're installing
NetBSD
from scratch, go to the section on preparing your hard disk, below.
If you're upgrading an existing installation, go directly to the
section on upgrading.
If you're making the tape on a
UNIX-like
system, the easiest way
to do so is probably something like:
where
tape_device
is the name of the tape device that
describes the tape drive you're using; possibly
Once you have the files on the tape, you can proceed to the
next step in the installation or upgrade process.
If you're installing
NetBSD
from scratch, go to the section on preparing your hard disk, below.
If you're upgrading an existing installation, go directly to the section
on upgrading.
Place the distribution sets you wish to upgrade somewhere in
your current file system tree.
At a bare minimum, you must upgrade the
base
and
kern
binary distributions, and so must put the
base
and
kern
sets somewhere in your file system.
If you wish, you can do the other sets, as well, but you should
not
upgrade the
etc
distribution; it contains contains system configuration files
that you should review and update by hand.
Once you have done this, you can proceed to the next step in
the upgrade process, actually upgrading your system.
First and foremost, before beginning the installation process,
make sure you have a reliable backup
of any data on your hard disk that you wish to keep. Mistakes in
partitioning your hard disk may lead to data loss.
To install or upgrade
NetBSD,
you need to first boot an installation
program and then interact with the screen-menu program
sysinst.
The installation program actually consists of the
NetBSD
kernel plus
an in-memory file system of utility programs.
From most convenient to least convenient, the installation methods
are:
You should familiarize yourself with the console PROM environment
and the hardware configuration. The PROMs on the older DECstation
2100 and 3100 use one syntax. The PROMs on the TurboChannel machines
use a completely different syntax. Be sure you know how to print
the configuration of your machine, and how to boot from disk or
network, as appropriate.
To boot from disk, use:
To boot via TFTP, use:
To boot via MOP, use:
You will also need to know the total size (in sectors) and the
approximate geometry of the disks you are installing onto, so that you
can label your disks for the
BSD
fast file system (FFS). For most SCSI
drives (including all SCSI-2 drives), the kernel will correctly detect
the disk geometry. The
sysinst
tool will suggest these as the default.
If you're installing
NetBSD/pmax
for the first time it's a very
good idea to pre-plan partition sizes for the disks on which you're
installing
NetBSD.
Changing the size of partitions after you've
installed is difficult. If you do not have a spare bootable disk, it
may be simpler to re-install
NetBSD
again from scratch.
Assuming a classic partition scheme with separate

When installing on a disk with no
NetBSD
or

message like:
or when installing on an old
Ultrix
disk, you may get a message like:
when issuing the
disklabel -W /dev/rrzXc
command. This can safely be ignored.
Most other

ports are similar, but use
`rsdXc'
instead of
`rrzXc'.
On

You will need to set up servers for BOOTP and TFTP.
For the BOOTP server you need to specify the:

Since the system install utility, sysinst, requires a read/write root,
installing via diskless boot is only feasible if your NFS server exports
the diskless root read-write. If this is not possible, you should
install via other of the other installation procedures.
Once you have booted the kernel, continue to the
Once you've booted the diskimage
section.
The system will then start the
sysinst
program.
Using
sysinst,
installing
NetBSD
is a relatively easy process. You
still should read this document and have it in hand when doing the
installation process. This document tries to be a good guideline
for the installation and as such covers many details to be completed.
Do not let this discourage you, the install program is not hard
to use.
The following is a walk-through of the steps you will take while
getting
NetBSD
installed on your hard disk.
sysinst
is a menu driven
installation system that allows for some freedom in doing the
installation. Sometimes, questions will be asked and in many cases
the default answer will be displayed in brackets
(``[ ]'')
after the question. If you wish to stop the installation, you may press
First, let's describe a quick install. The other sections of
this document go into the installation procedure in more
detail, but you may find that you do not need this. If you
want detailed instructions, skip to section 3. This section
describes a basic installation, using a CD-ROM install as
an example.
Boot the system as described in the previous section.
You may want to read the
boot messages, to notice your disk's name and geometry. Its name
will be something like
Once
NetBSD
has booted and printed all the boot messages,
you will be presented with a welcome message and a main menu.
It will also include instructions for using the menus.
If you will not use network operation during the installation,
but you do want your machine to be configured for networking once
it is installed, you should first go to the utilities menu, and select
Configure network option.
If you only want to temporarily
use networking during the installation, you can specify these
parameters later. If you are not using Domain Name Service (DNS),
you can give an empty response in reply to answers relating to
this.
To start the installation, select the menu option to install
NetBSD
from the main menu.
The first thing is to identify the disk on which you want to
install
NetBSD.
sysinst
will report a list of disks it finds
and ask you for your selection. Depending on how many disks
are found, you may get a different message. You should see
disk names like
You will be asked if you want to use the entire disk or
only part of the disk. If you decide to use the entire disk
for
NetBSD,
it will be checked if there are already other
systems present on the disk, and you will be asked to confirm
whether you want to overwrite these.
The partition table of the
NetBSD
part of a disk is called a
disklabel.
There are 3 layouts for the
NetBSD
part of the disk that you can pick from:
Standard, Standard with X
and
Custom.
The first two use a set of default
values (that you can change) suitable for a normal
installation, possibly including X. The last option
lets you specify everything yourself.
You will be presented with the current layout of the
NetBSD
disklabel, and given a chance to change it.
For each partition, you can set the type, offset and size,
block and fragment size, and the mount point. The type
that
NetBSD
uses for normal file storage is called
4.2BSD.
A swap partition has a special type called
swap.
Some partitions in the disklabel have a fixed purpose.
You will then be asked to name your disk's disklabel. The
default response is
mydisk.
For most purposes this will be OK.
If you choose to name it something different, make sure the name
is a single word and contains no special characters. You don't
need to remember this name.
You are now at the point of no return.
Nothing has been
written to your disk yet, but if you confirm that you want to
install
NetBSD,
your hard drive will be modified. If you are
sure you want to proceed, enter
The install program will now label your disk and make the file
systems you specified. The file systems will be initialized to
contain
NetBSD
bootstrapping binaries and configuration files.
You will see messages on your screen from the various
NetBSD
disk preparation tools that are running. There should be no
errors in this section of the installation. If there are,
restart from the beginning of the installation process.
Otherwise, you can continue the installation program
after pressing the return key.
The
NetBSD
distribution consists of a number of
sets,
that come in the form of gzipped tarfiles. A few sets must be
installed for a working system, others are optional. At this
point of the installation, you will be presented with a menu
which enables you to choose from one of the following methods
of installing the sets. Some of these methods will first
load the sets on your hard disk, others will extract the sets
directly.
For all these methods, the first step is making the sets
available for extraction, and then do the actual installation.
The sets can be made available in a few different ways. The
following sections describe each of those methods. After
reading the one about the method you will be using, you
can continue to section labeled
`Extracting the distribution sets'
To be able to install using ftp, you first need to configure
your network setup, if you haven't already at the start of
the install procedure.
sysinst
will do this for you, asking you
to provide some data, like IP number, hostname, etc. If you
do not have name service set up for the machine that you
are installing on, you can just press
You will also be asked to specify the host that you want
to transfer the sets from, the directory on that host,
and the account name and password used to log into that
host using ftp. If you did not set up DNS when answering
the questions to configure networking, you will need to
specify an IP number instead of a hostname for the ftp
server.
sysinst
will proceed to transfer all the default set files
from the remote site to your hard disk.
To be able to install using NFS, you first need to configure
your network setup, if you haven't already at the start of
the install procedure.
sysinst
will do this for you, asking you
to provide some data, like IP number, hostname, etc. If you
do not have name service set up for the machine that you
are installing on, you can just press
You will also be asked to specify the host that you want
to transfer the sets from, and the directory on that host
that the files are in. This directory should be mountable
by the machine you are installing on, i.e. correctly
exported to your machine.
If you did not set up DNS when answering the questions to
configure networking, you will need to specify an IP number
instead of a hostname for the NFS server.
When installing from a CD-ROM, you will be asked to specify
the device name for your CD-ROM player
(usually
sysinst
will then check if the files are indeed available
in the specified location, and proceed to the actual
extraction of the sets.
In order to install from a local file system, you will
need to specify the device that the file system resides
on
(for example
This option assumes that you have already done some preparation
yourself. The sets should be located in a directory on a
file system that is already accessible.
sysinst
will ask you
for the name of this directory.
After the install sets containing the
NetBSD
distribution
have been made available, you can either extract all the
sets (a full installation), or only extract sets that
you have selected. In the latter case you will be shown the
currently selected sets, and given the opportunity to select
the sets you want. Some sets always need to be installed
(kern, base and etc)
they will not be shown in this selection menu.
Before extraction begins, you can elect to watch the files being
extracted; the name of each file that is extracted will be shown.
This can slow down the installation process considerably, especially
on machines with slow graphics consoles or serial consoles.
After all the files have been extracted, all the necessary
device node files will be created. If you have already
configured networking, you will be asked if you want to
use this configuration for normal operation. If so, these
values will be installed in the network configuration files.
The next menu will allow you to select the time zone that you're in,
to make sure your clock has the right offset from GMT.
Finally you can set a password for the "root" account, to prevent
the machine coming up without access restrictions.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed
NetBSD1.5.
You can now reboot the machine, and boot
NetBSD
from harddisk.
Once you've got the operating system running, there are a few
things you need to do in order to bring the system into a properly
configured state, with the most important ones described below.

The upgrade to
NetBSD1.5
is a binary upgrade; it can be quite difficult
to advance to a later version by recompiling from source due primarily
to interdependencies in the various components.
To do the upgrade, you must install new bootblocks and boot off
the
install
kernel as described in the
Installing from an existing system
section.
You must also have at least the
base
and
kern
binary distribution sets available, so that you can upgrade with them,
using one of the upgrade methods described above. Finally, you must
have sufficient disk space available to install the new binaries.
Since the old binaries are being overwritten in place, you only need
space for the new binaries, which weren't previously on the system.
If you have a few megabytes free on each of your root
(
Since upgrading involves replacing the boot blocks on your
NetBSD
partition, the kernel, and most of the system binaries, it has the
potential to cause data loss. You are strongly advised to
back up any important data on your disk,
whether on the
NetBSD
partition or on
another operating system's partition, before beginning the upgrade
process.
The upgrade procedure using the
sysinst tool is similar to
an installation, but without the hard disk partitioning.
Another difference is that existing configuration files in

machine is a complete

doesn't mean that you're finished with the upgrade process.

You must also deal with certain changes in the formats of
some of the configuration files. The most notable change is

Binary distribution sets
The

comprise the
NetBSD1.5
release for the pmax. There are eight binary distribution sets.
The binary distribution sets can be found in the

of the
NetBSD1.5

wish to place on the tape.
For instance, to put the

you would do the following:

/usr

NetBSD

partition is about 32 MB.
A good initial size for the swap partition is twice the
amount of physical memory in your machine (though, unlike
Ultrix,
there are no restrictions on the size of the swap partition that would render
part of your memory unusable). The default swap size is 64 MB, which
is adequate for doing a full system build. A full binary installation,
with X11R6.3 takes about 150 MB in
/usr

a 200 MB
/usr

Booting
NetBSD/pmax
1.5 install kernel over a network requires a BOOTP
or DHCP server and a TFTP server. (These are usually all run on the
same machine.) There are two basic stages to the boot:
myhost.mydom.com:\
:ht=ethernet:ha=08002b123456:\
:ip=192.168.1.2:sm=255.255.255.0:\

option root-path "/usr/export/pmax";
}
Install via diskless boot
The file
pmax/installation/netboot/diskimage.tar.gz
contains a suitable set of files for installing on an NFS server to set
up a diskless root filesytem. (It is a tar copy of the contents of an
installation ramdisk file system contained in the install kernel.) You
will need to find an NFS server, unpack the tarfile, and setup
BOOTP/dhcp service for your pmax. Instructions for setting up
an NFS server and diskless booting are on the
NetBSD/pmax
netboot
webpage at
http://www.netbsd.org/Ports/pmax/netboot.html

Compatibility Issues With Previous NetBSD Releases
General issues
/etc/rc
modified to use
/etc/rc.d/*
/etc/rc
was a traditional
BSD
style monolithic file.
As of
NetBSD1.5,
each discrete program or substem from
/etc/rc
and
/etc/netstart
has been moved into separate scripts in
/etc/rc.d/
.
/etc/rc
uses
rcorder(8)
to build a dependency list of the files in
/etc/rc.d
and then executes each script in turn with an argument of
`start'.
Many
rc.d
scripts won't start unless the appropriate
rc.conf(5)
entry in
/etc/rc.conf
is set to
`YES.'
/etc/rc.shutdown
uses
rcorder(8)
to build a dependency list of the files in
/etc/rc.d
that have a
``KEYWORD: shutdown''
line, reverses the resulting list, and then executes each script in turn
with an argument of
`stop'.
The following scripts support a specific shutdown method:
cron
,
inetd
,
local
,
and
xdm
.
/etc/rc.d
as necessary.
Refer to the other scripts in that directory and
rc(8)
for more information on implementing
rc.d
scripts.
Issues affecting an upgrading from NetBSD 1.4 or later
named(8)
leaks version information
named(8)
where the version number of the server could be determined by remote clients.
This feature has not been disabled in
NetBSD1.5,
because there is a
named.conf(5)
option to change the version string:
option {
version "newstring";
};
sysctl(8)
pathname changed
sysctl(8)
is moved from
/usr/sbin/sysctl
to
/sbin/sysctl
.
If you have hardcoded references to the full pathname
(in shell scripts, for example)
please be sure to update those.
sendmail(8)
configuration file pathname changed
sendmail(8)
upgrade from 8.9.x to 8.10.x,
/etc/sendmail.cf
is moved to
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf
.
Also, the default
sendmail.cf(5)
refers different pathnames than before.
For example,
/etc/aliases
is now located at
/etc/mail/aliases
,
/etc/sendmail.cw
is now called
/etc/mail/local-host-names
,
and so forth.
If you have customized
sendmail.cf(5)
and friends, you will need to move the files to the new locations.
See
/usr/share/sendmail/README
for more information.
