[I'm posting this to the docs list because it's an issue either of release engineering or documentation, and there's no releng@, and because no one answered at netbsd-users.]
netbsd-INSTALL.gz does not exist on ftp.NetBSD.org at /pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-5.1.2/i386/binary/kernel/. The documentation says it should be there, and there's no README or errata file indicating if it's been removed or why. ftp> nlist *IN* netbsd-INSTALL_FLOPPY.gz netbsd-INSTALL_FLOPPY.symbols.gz netbsd-INSTALL_XEN2_DOMU.gz netbsd-INSTALL_XEN3PAE_DOMU.gz netbsd-INSTALL_XEN3_DOMU.gz A link to the document I'm reading: http://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-5.1.2/i386/INSTALL.html#NetBSD/i386%20subdirectory%20structure Here's an interesting list: ftp> nlist /pub/NetBSD/NetBSD*/i386/binary/kernel/netbsd-INSTALL.gz /pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-4.0.1/i386/binary/kernel/netbsd-INSTALL.gz /pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-4.0/i386/binary/kernel/netbsd-INSTALL.gz /pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-6.0_BETA/i386/binary/kernel/netbsd-INSTALL.gz /pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-6.0_BETA2/i386/binary/kernel/netbsd-INSTALL.gz It would appear the install kernel went missing for a while and has reappeared. I don't know if that was intentional or went unnoticed, but it's definitely undocumented. What has everyone else been doing meanwhile? --jkl
