I recently got an old Mac IICx/8MB + old Conner 200MB disk, so I
tried to install OpenBSD 2.2 on it.
As was to be expected, I ran into the "INSTALLATION PROCESS FLAW" as
documented on the 2.2 errata page.
However, there are two problems with the suggested solutions:
The web-page suggests an alternative solution consisting of mv-ing
the file using the minishell. However, the minishell apparently
doesn't support the "mv" command...
So I downloaded the new bsd-generic.tar.gz image
(ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/2.2/mac68k/bsd-generic.tar.gz)
but the Mac install program was unable to uncompress it.
That new image has been gzip-ped differently it seems, since I was
able to install it after uncompressing it and just gzip-ping it
again.
That's all,
Gert-Jan
(waiting impatiently for the end of the base install :-)
