Greg's Setting up a new FreeBSD system

Greg's diary Greg's home page HOWTO index

This page describes specific installation items for lagoon.lemis.com, my wife Yvonne's computer.

• Perform a standard new disk installation. An update should work too, but I haven't tried it.

• Restore /home/yvonne.

• Create symlinks:

  rm -f ~yvonne/.fvwm
  ln -s /dereel/home/grog/.fvwm ~yvonne
  ln -s /dereel/usr/lib/compat/libm.so.2 /usr/local/lib
  ln -s /dereel/usr/lib/compat/libxpg4.so.2 /usr/lib/compat/libxpg4.so.2
  ln -s /dereel/usr/lib/compat/libc.so.4 /usr/lib/compat/libc.so.4
  ln -s /dereel/usr/local/bin/xearth /usr/local/bin
  ln -s /dereel/home/var/mail/yvonne /var/mail
  cp -p /dereel/usr/local/lib/X11/app-defaults/KKlondike /usr/local/lib/X11/app-defaults/
  cp -p /dereel/usr/local/bin/kklondike /usr/local/bin
  ln -s /dereel/usr/local/bin/by /usr/local/bin/
