The following options may be set from this screen.
|
|
|
|
NFS Secure: NFS server talks only on a secure port
|
|
|
|
This is most commonly used when talking to Sun workstations, which
|
|
will not talk NFS over "non privileged" ports.
|
|
|
|
|
|
NFS Slow: User is using a slow PC or Ethernet card
|
|
|
|
Use this option if you have a slow PC (386) or an Ethernet card
|
|
with poor performance being "fed" by NFS on a higher-performance
|
|
workstation. This will throttle the workstation back to prevent
|
|
the PC from becoming swamped with data.
|
|
|
|
|
|
NFS TCP: Use TCP for the NFS mount
|
|
|
|
This option can be used if your NFS server supports TCP
|
|
connections; not all do! This may be useful if your NFS server
|
|
is at a remote site in which case it may offer some additional
|
|
stability.
|
|
|
|
|
|
NFS version 3: Use NFS version 3
|
|
|
|
This option forces the use of NFS version 3 and is on by default.
|
|
If your NFS server only supports NFS version 2, disable this option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Debugging: Turn on the extra debugging flag
|
|
|
|
This turns on a lot of extra noise in between dialogs (unless
|
|
debugFile has been set, sending the data to a logfile instead).
|
|
Optionally, if debugFile begins with a plus sign (`+'), output will
|
|
occur both on standard output and to debugFile (minus leading plus).
|
|
If your installation should fail for any reason, PLEASE turn this
|
|
flag on when attempting to reproduce the problem. It will provide a
|
|
lot of extra debugging at the failure point and may be very helpful
|
|
to the developers in tracking such problems down!
|
|
|
|
|
|
Yes To All: Assume "Yes" answers to all non-critical dialogs
|
|
|
|
This flag should be used with caution. It will essentially
|
|
decide NOT to ask the user about any "boundary" conditions that
|
|
might not constitute actual errors but may be warnings indicative
|
|
of other problems. It's most useful to those who are doing unattended
|
|
installs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
DHCP: Enable DHCP configuration of interfaces
|
|
|
|
This option specifies whether DHCP configuration of interfaces
|
|
may be attempted. The default setting is to interactively ask
|
|
the user.
|
|
|
|
|
|
IPv6: Enable IPv6 router solicitation configuration
|
|
|
|
This option specifies whether automatic configuration of IPv6
|
|
interfaces may be attempted. This uses the router solicitation
|
|
method of automatic configuration. The default setting is to
|
|
interactively ask the user.
|
|
|
|
|
|
FTP username: Specify username and password instead of anonymous.
|
|
|
|
By default, the installation attempts to log in as the
|
|
anonymous user. If you wish to log in as someone else,
|
|
specify the username and password with this option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Editor: Specify which screen editor to use.
|
|
|
|
At various points during the installation it may be necessary
|
|
to customize some text file, at which point the user will be
|
|
thrown unceremoniously into a screen editor. A relatively
|
|
simplistic editor which shows its command set on-screen is
|
|
selected by default, but UNIX purists may wish to change this
|
|
setting to `/usr/bin/vi'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Release Name: Which release to attempt to load from installation media.
|
|
|
|
You should only change this option if you're really sure you know
|
|
what you are doing! This will change the release name used by
|
|
bsdconfig when fetching components of any distributions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Media Type: Which media type is being used.
|
|
|
|
This is mostly informational and indicates which media type (if any)
|
|
was last selected in the Media menu. It's also a convenient short-cut
|
|
to the media menu itself.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Package Temp: Where package temporary files should go
|
|
|
|
Some packages, like emacs, can use a LOT of temporary space - up to
|
|
20 or 30MB. If you are going to configure a small / directory and no
|
|
separate /var (and hence a small /var/tmp), then you may wish to set
|
|
this to point at another location (say, /usr/tmp).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Re-scan Devices:
|
|
|
|
Reprobe the system for devices.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Use Defaults: Use default values.
|
|
|
|
Reset all options back to their default values.
