        !            22: <ul>

1.3       deraadt    24:        must use the floppy install method.  This is not significantly
                     25:        harder..

1.4       niklas     29: <li>The amiga install has a flaw wrt Tseng based graphic cards: when entering
                     30:        multiuser mode the console won't get a login prompt.  This is due to
                     31:        a problem in the shipped /dev/MAKEDEV script.  To fix, enter single

1.5       todd       39: <li>The sparc X11R6.3 xdm-config files reference /usr/X11R6.3/... This is
                     40:        due to X11R6.3's default config file contents.  To fix, su and

        !            46:        "dumb" in response to the terminal type query.  As a work-around
        !            47:        first specify an invalid terminal such as "bogus" and when prompted
        !            48:        again for a terminal type, enter "dumb" and it will work correctly.
        !            49: <li>When netbooting an older sparc system such as a Sun4 or Sun4c, the boot
        !            50:        may hang up at the end of the tftp transfer of the bootstrap due
        !            51:        to the tftp transfer working in 512-byte blocks.  If this occurs
        !            52:        create a "padded" version of the bootstrap (boot or zboot) as follows:
        !            53: <pre><b>#</b> cd /tftpboot
