                          2.3 Pre-installation Tasks

2.3.1 Inventory Your Computer

  Before installing FreeBSD you should attempt to inventory the components
  in your computer. The FreeBSD installation routines will show you the
  components (hard disks, network cards, CDROM drives, and so forth) with
  their model number and manufacturer. FreeBSD will also attempt to
  determine the correct configuration for these devices, which includes
  information about IRQ and IO port usage. Due to the vagaries of PC
  hardware this process is not always completely successful, and you may
  need to correct FreeBSD's determination of your configuration.
  If you already have another operating system installed, such as Windows(R)
  or Linux, it is a good idea to use the facilities provided by those
  operating systems to see how your hardware is already configured. If you
  are not sure what settings an expansion card is using, you may find it
  printed on the card itself. Popular IRQ numbers are 3, 5, and 7, and IO
  port addresses are normally written as hexadecimal numbers, such as 0x330.
  We recommend you print or write down this information before installing
  FreeBSD. It may help to use a table, like this:
  Table 2-1. Sample Device Inventory
      Device Name      IRQ    IO                      Notes                  
                            port(s)  
  First hard disk      N/A N/A       40 GB, made by Seagate, first IDE       
                                     master                                  
  CDROM                N/A N/A       First IDE slave                         
  Second hard disk     N/A N/A       20 GB, made by IBM, second IDE master   
  First IDE controller 14  0x1f0                                             
  Network card         N/A N/A       Intel(R) 10/100                         
  Modem                N/A N/A       3Com(R) 56K faxmodem, on COM1           
  ...                                                                        
  Once the inventory of the components in your computer is done, you have to
  check if they match the hardware requirements of the FreeBSD release you
  want to install.

2.3.2 Backup Your Data

  If the computer you will be installing FreeBSD on contains valuable data,
  then ensure you have it backed up, and that you have tested the backups
  before installing FreeBSD. The FreeBSD installation routine will prompt
  you before writing any data to your disk, but once that process has
  started it cannot be undone.

2.3.3 Decide Where to Install FreeBSD

  If you want FreeBSD to use your entire hard disk, then there is nothing
  more to concern yourself with at this point -- you can skip this section.
  However, if you need FreeBSD to co-exist with other operating systems then
  you need to have a rough understanding of how data is laid out on the
  disk, and how this affects you.
 2.3.3.1 Disk Layouts for FreeBSD/i386
  A PC disk can be divided into discrete chunks. These chunks are called
  partitions. Since FreeBSD internally also has partitions, the naming can
  become confusing very quickly, therefore these disk chunks are referred to
  as disk slices or simply slices in FreeBSD itself. For example, the
  FreeBSD utility fdisk which operates on the PC disk partitions, refers to
  slices instead of partitions. By design, the PC only supports four
  partitions per disk. These partitions are called primary partitions. To
  work around this limitation and allow more than four partitions, a new
  partition type was created, the extended partition. A disk may contain
  only one extended partition. Special partitions, called logical
  partitions, can be created inside this extended partition.
  Each partition has a partition ID, which is a number used to identify the
  type of data on the partition. FreeBSD partitions have the partition ID of
  165.
  In general, each operating system that you use will identify partitions in
  a particular way. For example, DOS, and its descendants, like Windows,
  assign each primary and logical partition a drive letter, starting with
  C:.
  FreeBSD must be installed into a primary partition. FreeBSD can keep all
  its data, including any files that you create, on this one partition.
  However, if you have multiple disks, then you can create a FreeBSD
  partition on all, or some, of them. When you install FreeBSD, you must
  have one partition available. This might be a blank partition that you
  have prepared, or it might be an existing partition that contains data
  that you no longer care about.
  If you are already using all the partitions on all your disks, then you
  will have to free one of them for FreeBSD using the tools provided by the
  other operating systems you use (e.g., fdisk on DOS or Windows).
  If you have a spare partition then you can use that. However, you may need
  to shrink one or more of your existing partitions first.
  A minimal installation of FreeBSD takes as little as 100 MB of disk space.
  However, that is a very minimal install, leaving almost no space for your
  own files. A more realistic minimum is 250 MB without a graphical
  environment, and 350 MB or more if you want a graphical user interface. If
  you intend to install a lot of third-party software as well, then you will
  need more space.
  You can use a commercial tool such as PartitionMagic(R), or a free tool
  such as GParted, to resize your partitions and make space for FreeBSD. The
  tools directory on the CDROM contains two free software tools which can
  carry out this task, namely FIPS and PResizer. Documentation for both of
  these is available in the same directory. FIPS, PResizer, and
  PartitionMagic can resize FAT16 and FAT32 partitions -- used in MS-DOS(R)
  through Windows ME. Both PartitionMagic and GParted are known to work on
  NTFS. GParted is available on a number of Live CD Linux distributions,
  such as SystemRescueCD.
  Problems have been reported resizing Microsoft(R) Vista partitions. Having
  a Vista installation CDROM handy when attempting such an operation is
  recommended. As with all such disk maintenance tasks, a current set of
  backups is also strongly advised.
    Warning: Incorrect use of these tools can delete the data on your disk.
    Be sure that you have recent, working backups before using them.
  Example 2-1. Using an Existing Partition Unchanged
  Suppose that you have a computer with a single 4 GB disk that already has
  a version of Windows installed, and you have split the disk into two drive
  letters, C: and D:, each of which is 2 GB in size. You have 1 GB of data
  on C:, and 0.5 GB of data on D:.
  This means that your disk has two partitions on it, one per drive letter.
  You can copy all your existing data from D: to C:, which will free up the
  second partition, ready for FreeBSD.
  Example 2-2. Shrinking an Existing Partition
  Suppose that you have a computer with a single 4 GB disk that already has
  a version of Windows installed. When you installed Windows you created one
  large partition, giving you a C: drive that is 4 GB in size. You are
  currently using 1.5 GB of space, and want FreeBSD to have 2 GB of space.
  In order to install FreeBSD you will need to either:
   1. Backup your Windows data, and then reinstall Windows, asking for a
      2 GB partition at install time.
   2. Use one of the tools such as PartitionMagic, described above, to
      shrink your Windows partition.
 2.3.3.2 Disk Layouts for the Alpha
  You will need a dedicated disk for FreeBSD on the Alpha. It is not
  possible to share a disk with another operating system at this time.
  Depending on the specific Alpha machine you have, this disk can either be
  a SCSI disk or an IDE disk, as long as your machine is capable of booting
  from it.
  Following the conventions of the Digital / Compaq manuals all SRM input is
  shown in uppercase. SRM is case insensitive.
  To find the names and types of disks in your machine, use the SHOW DEVICE
  command from the SRM console prompt:
>>>SHOW DEVICE
dka0.0.0.4.0               DKA0           TOSHIBA CD-ROM XM-57  3476
dkc0.0.0.1009.0            DKC0                       RZ1BB-BS  0658
dkc100.1.0.1009.0          DKC100             SEAGATE ST34501W  0015
dva0.0.0.0.1               DVA0
ewa0.0.0.3.0               EWA0              00-00-F8-75-6D-01
pkc0.7.0.1009.0            PKC0                  SCSI Bus ID 7  5.27
pqa0.0.0.4.0               PQA0                       PCI EIDE
pqb0.0.1.4.0               PQB0                       PCI EIDE
  This example is from a Digital Personal Workstation 433au and shows three
  disks attached to the machine. The first is a CDROM drive called DKA0 and
  the other two are disks and are called DKC0 and DKC100 respectively.
  Disks with names of the form DKx are SCSI disks. For example DKA100 refers
  to a SCSI disk with SCSI target ID 1 on the first SCSI bus (A), whereas
  DKC300 refers to a SCSI disk with SCSI ID 3 on the third SCSI bus (C).
  Devicename PKx refers to the SCSI host bus adapter. As seen in the SHOW
  DEVICE output SCSI CDROM drives are treated as any other SCSI hard disk
  drive.
  IDE disks have names similar to DQx, while PQx is the associated IDE
  controller.

2.3.4 Collect Your Network Configuration Details

  If you intend to connect to a network as part of your FreeBSD installation
  (for example, if you will be installing from an FTP site or an NFS
  server), then you need to know your network configuration. You will be
  prompted for this information during the installation so that FreeBSD can
  connect to the network to complete the install.
 2.3.4.1 Connecting to an Ethernet Network or Cable/DSL Modem
  If you connect to an Ethernet network, or you have an Internet connection
  using an Ethernet adapter via cable or DSL, then you will need the
  following information:
   1. IP address
   2. IP address of the default gateway
   3. Hostname
   4. DNS server IP addresses
   5. Subnet Mask
  If you do not know this information, then ask your system administrator or
  service provider. They may say that this information is assigned
  automatically, using DHCP. If so, make a note of this.
 2.3.4.2 Connecting Using a Modem
  If you dial up to an ISP using a regular modem then you can still install
  FreeBSD over the Internet, it will just take a very long time.
  You will need to know:
   1. The phone number to dial for your ISP
   2. The COM: port your modem is connected to
   3. The username and password for your ISP account

2.3.5 Check for FreeBSD Errata

  Although the FreeBSD project strives to ensure that each release of
  FreeBSD is as stable as possible, bugs do occasionally creep into the
  process. On very rare occasions those bugs affect the installation
  process. As these problems are discovered and fixed, they are noted in the
  FreeBSD Errata, which is found on the FreeBSD web site. You should check
  the errata before installing to make sure that there are no late-breaking
  problems which you should be aware of.
  Information about all the releases, including the errata for each release,
  can be found on the release information section of the FreeBSD web site.

2.3.6 Obtain the FreeBSD Installation Files

  The FreeBSD installation process can install FreeBSD from files located in
  any of the following places:
  Local Media
    * A CDROM or DVD
    * A DOS partition on the same computer
    * A SCSI or QIC tape
    * Floppy disks
  Network
    * An FTP site, going through a firewall, or using an HTTP proxy, as
      necessary
    * An NFS server
    * A dedicated parallel or serial connection
  If you have purchased FreeBSD on CD or DVD then you already have
  everything you need, and should proceed to the next section (Section
  2.3.7).
  If you have not obtained the FreeBSD installation files you should skip
  ahead to Section 2.13 which explains how to prepare to install FreeBSD
  from any of the above. After reading that section, you should come back
  here, and read on to Section 2.3.7.

2.3.7 Prepare the Boot Media

  The FreeBSD installation process is started by booting your computer into
  the FreeBSD installer--it is not a program you run within another
  operating system. Your computer normally boots using the operating system
  installed on your hard disk, but it can also be configured to use a
  "bootable" floppy disk. Most modern computers can also boot from a CDROM
  in the CDROM drive.
    Tip: If you have FreeBSD on CDROM or DVD (either one you purchased or
    you prepared yourself), and your computer allows you to boot from the
    CDROM or DVD (typically a BIOS option called "Boot Order" or similar),
    then you can skip this section. The FreeBSD CDROM and DVD images are
    bootable and can be used to install FreeBSD without any other special
    preparation.
  To create boot floppy images, follow these steps:
   1. Acquire the Boot Floppy Images
      The boot disks are available on your installation media in the
      floppies/ directory, and can also be downloaded from the floppies
      directory,
      ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/<arch>/<version>-RELEASE/floppies/.
      Replace <arch> and <version> with the architecture and the version
      number which you want to install, respectively. For example, the boot
      floppy images for FreeBSD/i386 6.2-RELEASE are available from
      ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/6.2-RELEASE/floppies/.
      The floppy images have a .flp extension. The floppies/ directory
      contains a number of different images, and the ones you will need to
      use depends on the version of FreeBSD you are installing, and in some
      cases, the hardware you are installing to. In most cases you will need
      four floppies, boot.flp, kern1.flp, kern2.flp, and kern3.flp. Check
      README.TXT in the same directory for the most up to date information
      about these floppy images.
        Important: Your FTP program must use binary mode to download these
        disk images. Some web browsers have been known to use text (or
        ASCII) mode, which will be apparent if you cannot boot from the
        disks.
   2. Prepare the Floppy Disks
      You must prepare one floppy disk per image file you had to download.
      It is imperative that these disks are free from defects. The easiest
      way to test this is to format the disks for yourself. Do not trust
      pre-formatted floppies. The format utility in Windows will not tell
      about the presence of bad blocks, it simply marks them as "bad" and
      ignores them. It is advised that you use brand new floppies if
      choosing this installation route.
        Important: If you try to install FreeBSD and the installation
        program crashes, freezes, or otherwise misbehaves, one of the first
        things to suspect is the floppies. Try writing the floppy image
        files to new disks and try again.
   3. Write the Image Files to the Floppy Disks
      The .flp files are not regular files you copy to the disk. They are
      images of the complete contents of the disk. This means that you
      cannot simply copy files from one disk to another. Instead, you must
      use specific tools to write the images directly to the disk.
      If you are creating the floppies on a computer running MS-DOS/Windows,
      then we provide a tool to do this called fdimage.
      If you are using the floppies from the CDROM, and your CDROM is the E:
      drive, then you would run this:
E:\> tools\fdimage floppies\boot.flp A:
      Repeat this command for each .flp file, replacing the floppy disk each
      time, being sure to label the disks with the name of the file that you
      copied to them. Adjust the command line as necessary, depending on
      where you have placed the .flp files. If you do not have the CDROM,
      then fdimage can be downloaded from the tools directory on the FreeBSD
      FTP site.
      If you are writing the floppies on a UNIX(R) system (such as another
      FreeBSD system) you can use the dd(1) command to write the image files
      directly to disk. On FreeBSD, you would run:
# dd if=boot.flp of=/dev/fd0
      On FreeBSD, /dev/fd0 refers to the first floppy disk (the A: drive).
      /dev/fd1 would be the B: drive, and so on. Other UNIX variants might
      have different names for the floppy disk devices, and you will need to
      check the documentation for the system as necessary.
  You are now ready to start installing FreeBSD.
