New machine, I scooped a dual P3 from Phil. I had started noting what I did in XhierOnFreeBSD, but the hard disk barfed and the previous notes were getting cluttered, so I'm starting again.

Partitions set up thusly:

• / 6G
• swap 2G
• /usr 10G
• /fsys1 19G

I may have wanted to reverse /usr and /fsys1. Oh well, I can probably always score more disk.

First, install base minimal system. Mount torres:/usr/ports and install the 44bsd-rdist, cvsup-without-gui, and rsync packages. Then cvsup src and ports from freebsd.uwaterloo.ca. Copy OATES config from torres to IPFILTER, copy torres' make.conf, and do a make buildworld.

Allow inetd to start in rc.conf (made some other changes too, hurray for RCS), allow rsh/rlogin/rexec and set up .rhosts/.shosts to allow various archmasters in. Set rc.conf to allow linux emulation.

Create the standard xhier directory structure.

Hrm, I'd previously linked /usr/ports to /fsys1/ports. But make index doesn't seem to like this. I'd cvsupped with ports still really living in /usr. It's pissed off about that. So rm -r /fsys1/ports and re-cvsup.
