+		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+		       Version 2, June 1991
+
+ Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
+                          675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+
+			    Preamble
+
+  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
+freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
+License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
+software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
+General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
+Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
+using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
+the GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
+your programs, too.
+
+  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
+have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
+this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
+if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
+in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
+
+  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
+anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
+These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
+distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
+
+  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
+gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
+you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
+source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
+rights.
+
+  We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
+(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
+distribute and/or modify the software.
+
+  Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
+that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
+software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
+want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
+that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
+authors' reputations.
+
+  Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
+patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
+program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
+program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
+patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
+
+  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+modification follow.
+
+		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
+
+  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
+a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
+under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
+refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
+means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
+that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
+either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
+language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
+the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
+
+Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
+covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
+running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
+is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
+Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
+Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
+
+  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
+source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
+conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
+copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
+notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
+and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
+along with the Program.
+
+You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
+you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
+
+  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
+of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
+distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
+above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+
+    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
+    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
+
+    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
+    whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
+    part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
+    parties under the terms of this License.
+
+    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
+    when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
+    interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
+    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
+    notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
+    a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
+    these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
+    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
+    does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
+    the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
+
+These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
+identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
+and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
+themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
+sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
+distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
+on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
+this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
+entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
+
+Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
+your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
+exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
+collective works based on the Program.
+
+In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
+with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
+a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
+the scope of this License.
+
+  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
+under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
+Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
+
+    a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
+    source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
+    1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
+
+    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
+    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
+    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
+    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
+    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
+    customarily used for software interchange; or,
+
+    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
+    to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
+    allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
+    received the program in object code or executable form with such
+    an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
+
+The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
+making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
+code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
+associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
+control compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
+special exception, the source code distributed need not include
+anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
+form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
+operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
+itself accompanies the executable.
+
+If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
+access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
+access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
+distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
+compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
+
+  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
+except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
+otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
+void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
+However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
+this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
+parties remain in full compliance.
+
+  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
+signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
+distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
+prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
+modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
+Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
+all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
+the Program or works based on it.
+
+  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
+Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
+original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
+these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
+restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
+You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
+this License.
+
+  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
+infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
+conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
+distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
+License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
+may not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
+license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
+all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
+the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
+refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
+
+If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
+any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
+apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
+circumstances.
+
+It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
+patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
+such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
+integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
+implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
+generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
+through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
+system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
+to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
+impose that choice.
+
+This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
+be a consequence of the rest of this License.
+
+  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
+certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
+original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
+may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
+those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
+countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
+the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
+
+  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
+of the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
+be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
+address new problems or concerns.
+
+Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
+specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
+later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
+either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
+Software Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
+this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
+Foundation.
+
+  10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
+programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
+to ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
+Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
+make exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
+of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
+of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
+
+			    NO WARRANTY
+
+  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
+FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
+OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
+PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
+OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
+MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
+TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
+PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
+REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
+
+  12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
+WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
+REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
+INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
+OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
+TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
+YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
+PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
+POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
+
+		     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+	Appendix: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
+
+  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
+possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
+free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
+
+  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
+to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
+convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
+the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+
+    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
+    Copyright (C) 19yy  <name of author>
+
+    This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
+    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
+    the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
+    (at your option) any later version.
+
+    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
+    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
+    GNU General Public License for more details.
+
+    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
+    along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
+    Foundation, Inc., 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA.
+
+Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
+
+If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
+when it starts in an interactive mode:
+
+    Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) 19yy name of author
+    Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
+    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
+    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
+
+The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
+parts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may
+be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
+mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
+
+You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
+school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
+necessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:
+
+  Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
+  `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.
+
+  <signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1989
+  Ty Coon, President of Vice
+
+This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
+proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you may
+consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
+library.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General
+Public License instead of this License.

+2004-04-08  Will Woods <wgwoods@mac.com>
+	* Change include path (should fix compilation for 2.6 kernels)
+	* Add/fix extra_args patch - allows you to add extra arguments after
+	  the configuration number (e.g. "1 console=ttyS0")
+	* Fix warning about bcopy
+	* Version is now 1.0_pre20040408
+
+2003-12-01  Will Woods <wgwoods@mac.com>
+	* Patch for USB console from Jeff.Wiedemeier@hp.com
+	* Patch to check kernel memory against console memory descriptors, also
+	  from Jeff. These two patches should allow booting on Wildfire.
+
+2003-11-07  Will Woods <wgwoods@mac.com>
+	* Changed version number to 1.0pre1 (aboot should hit 1.0 before 
+	  they stop making the Alpha, I think)
+	* Merged doc changes from 0.10 branch
+	* Reverted 0.10 changes out of HEAD (the tag aboot_010pre2 marks the
+	  state just before the rollback)
+
+2003-03-21  Will Woods <will.woods@hp.com>
+	* Added include/string.h, since we have our own string.c, replaced 
+	  #includes of <linux/string.h> with "string.h" since linux/string.h
+	  no longer has user-includable prototypes.
+	  (thanks to Kelledin <kelledin@skarpsey.dyndns.org> for the idea)
+	* Changed #includes of our headers to use quotes instead of <>
+	* Don't build with -mcpu=ev4 (default code works on ev4 and is smaller)
+	* Cleaned up a couple other warnings 
+
+2003-01-14  Will Woods <will.woods@hp.com>
+	* Fixed typos in man pages ("True 64")
+	* Bumped version number to 0.9b
+	* Released 0.9b. Hooray!
+
+2002-09-18  Will Woods <will.woods@hp.com>
+	* branched the 0.9 tree to add bugfixes
+	* fixed some compilation errors with newer gcc/glibc versions
+	* added newer manpages
+
+2001-11-14  Will Woods <will.woods@compaq.com>
+        * sdisklabel/sdisklabel.c: fixed my fix to the cylinder counting bug.
+          oops. also added (currently undocumented) "force" flag, to skip
+          error checking in sdisklabel.
+
+2001-10-26  Will Woods <will.woods@compaq.com>
+        * Released aboot 0.9. Yay!
+
+2001-10-25  Will Woods <will.woods@compaq.com>
+	* sdisklabel/sdisklabel.c: fixed cylinder-counting bug
+
+2001-10-11  Will Woods <will.woods@compaq.com>
+	* applied a patch from the debian version of aboot. Here's the debian
+	maintainer's changelog:
+
+  * New upstream (from CVS)
+  * I am calling this version of aboot from CVS 0.8.
+  * Minor tweeks to make it compile with kernel 2.4.x headers.
+  * e2writeboot now returns non-zero on error.  Closes: #107757
+  -- Gregory W. Johnson <gjohnson@physics.clarku.edu>  Wed, 15 Aug 2001
+
+	Since he called his version 0.8, I will call this the 0.9 tree, to 
+	avoid confusion. Hence this is aboot 0.9pre1. 
+
+2001-10-09  Will Woods <will.woods@compaq.com>
+	* aboot.c, disk.c, include/config.c: replaced ABOOT_MINOR and 
+	ABOOT_MAJOR with ABOOT_VERSION. Bumped version number to 0.8pre2.
+	* aboot.c: fixed ELF header bug that snuck in somewhere.
+	* fs/ext2.c, Makefile: fixes for proper #includes to allow compilation
+	of userspace testing aboot against the 2.4 kernel.
+
+2001-10-08  Will Woods <will.woods@compaq.com>
+	* fs/ext2.c: Fixed elusive overflow bug. If part of the kernel was 
+	past the 524,287th block (given 4096 bytes per block) the byte offset
+	was too big to fit in an int. 
+	* sdisklabel/sdisklabel.c: borrowed code from fdisk for getting
+	the correct size of the disk. 
+	
+2001-07-10  Will Woods <will.woods@compaq.com>
+	* aboot.c, tools/objstrip.c: elf_check_arch takes different arguments
+	in Linux 2.4 than it did in 2.2; added an aboot_elf_check_arch which
+	does the right thing based on version info from linux/version.h. 
+	* disk.c: a function called get_options exists in 2.4 kernels, so
+	aboot's get_options function was renamed get_aboot_options(). 
+	(both changes based on a patch by Christian Groessler <cpg@aladdin.de>)
+
+2001-04-26  Will Woods <will.woods@compaq.com>
+	* disk.c: changed /etc/aboot.conf and aboot.conf back to their
+	original settings. If it ain't broke, why fix it?
+	* added the man pages in doc/man, written by Helge Kreutzmann
+	<kreutzm@itp.uni-hannover.de> (Thanks Helge!)
+
+2001-03-20  Will Woods <will.woods@compaq.com>
+	* disk.c: swapped position of /etc/aboot.conf and aboot.conf in the 
+	configs array, making /aboot.conf the default.
+	* isolib.c: added parse_rock_ridge_inode and get_rock_ridge_symlink
+	adapted from rock.c in the linux kernel source. 
+	* isolib.c: added iso_follow_link and iso_readdir, adapted from
+	fs/ext2.c
+        * made minor changes here and there to quiet gcc warnings - 
+	initializing variables to 0, casting variables properly, etc
+
+2000-06-27  David Huggins-Daines  <dhd@linuxcare.com>
+
+	* sdisklabel/sdisklabel.c (main): Off-by-one error in argument
+	checking (not my fault!).
+	* disk.c (load_raw): This didn't work at all.  I've changed it to
+	use an uncompressed kernel with headers.  Eventually it will be
+	fixed so that it can accept compressed kernels as well (by
+	checking for gzip magic numbers).
+	* lib/vsprintf.c (vsprintf): Patch from Matt Wilson, fix the 'h'
+	format in vsprintf().
+	* utils.c: Patch from Matt Wilson <msw@redhat.com>, to allow
+	compiling against linux 2.3 header files.
+
+2000-05-02  David Huggins-Daines  <dhd@linuxcare.com>
+
+	* Makefile: Added the ability to build a debugging aboot that runs
+	as a userspace program.  Great for filesystem code debugging.
+	Also, optimize for size instead of speed.
+	* aboot.c: Remove a.out support, add multiple ELF pheader
+	support.  Also make the parameter offset, and kernel stack offset
+	non-hardcoded in order to deal with new, bigger consoles.
+	* disk.c: Change "plain" to "uncompressed" and load_aout() to
+	load_uncompressed().  Implement multiple pheaders for raw boot
+	(untested) and uncompressed boot (tested). Also look for
+	alternative config files (needed for CD booting and such)
+	* fs/ext2.c: Cache the root inode, and do proper 64-bit arithmetic
+	in ext2_iget() so that >2G filesystems work reliably (doh!)
+	* head.S: make run_kernel() assembly in order to save a few bytes.
+	* include/aboot.h: prototype run_kernel as attribute((noreturn)),
+	maybe this will save a few bytes too.
+	* fs/ufs.c: Implement dummy fstat().  I don't really know if the
+	UFS code still works, and I'm tempted to remove it.
+	* include/cons.h: Add a definition of the CTB, though we don't
+	really use it yet.
+	* include/iso.h: Rock Ridge constants
+	* lib/isolib.c: Rock Ridge filenames, code cleanup, and fix the
+	bug where 2048-byte blocks don't work.
+	* zip/misc.c: necessary stuff for multiple pheaders.
+
+2000-04-10  David Huggins-Daines  <dhuggins@linuxcare.com>
+
+	* lib/isolib.c (iso_iget): Gar!  More stupidity in the ISO code,
+	now fixed (see comment about *pnt being overwritten).  With luck
+	this should be 0.7 final, so I won't need to do another 0.6
+
+2000-04-02  David Huggins-Daines  <dhuggins@linuxcare.com>
+
+	* lib/isolib.c: Fix some obvious stupidity in the ISO code (could
+	cause a failure to load the kernel in some cases due to reading
+	past the end of the device.
+	* sdisklabel/swriteboot.c (read_configured_partition): Eek!  I
+	thought I had fixed the problems I created with installing aboot
+	on new disks.  Obviously I didn't.  Thanks to Martin Lucina
+	<mato@kotelna.sk> for inadvertently finding the case I missed.

+2000-03-23  David Huggins-Daines  <dhuggins@linuxcare.com>
+
+	* cons.c: Patch from David North <d_north@thurien.tditx.com>, via
+	Greg W. Johnson (gwj@debian.org), fixes serial console output on
+	some boxes.
+	* fs/iso.c: gwj@debian.org: silence compiler warnings
+	* include/isolib.h: ditto
+	* lib/string.c: ditto
+	* sdisklabel/swriteboot.c: add abootconf functionality to
+	swriteboot (where it probably belongs)
+
+2000-03-06  David Huggins-Daines  <dhuggins@linuxcare.com>
+
+	* aboot-0.6: At long last we have a new aboot.  This is somewhat
+	of an interim release, as it doesn't have all the features I'd
+	like (it doesn't list directories or follow symlinks on ISO9660 or
+	UFS filesystems, for example, nor does it support initrd), but it
+	integrates the large number of patches that have been added by
+	various distributions, adds symlink-following, initrd, and
+	directory-listing support on ext2 at least, and generally works
+	better.
+
+Sat Aug 17 18:58:36 1996  David Mosberger-Tang  <davidm@azstarnet.com>
+
+	* disk.c (get_boot_device): New function.  If it guesses wrong,
+	explicitly specify bootdevice= via commandline.
+	(get_options): Add support for bootdevice= and bootfile= options
+	to enable Red Hat installation.
+
+	* sdisklabel/library.c (overlaplabel): FORCE is now a bitset.
+	If bit i is set, overlaps with partition i+1 are allowed.
+	* sdisklabel/sdisklabel.c (set_partition): Update accordingly.
+
+	* sdisklabel/swriteboot.c (main): Make 1 be the first partition
+ 	(not 0) to be consistent with Linux kernel numbering.  Make
+ 	force_overlap a bitset so we can force more than one overlapping
+ 	partition.
+
+	* disk.c (load_kernel): If kernel load fails, drop into
+ 	interactive mode.
+
+	* fs/ext2.c (ext2_iget): Make OFFSET a long, not an int so we can
+ 	boot from a partition that starts at an offset > 2GB.
+
+Fri May 10 16:48:25 1996  David Mosberger-Tang  <davidm@koppel.cs.arizona.edu>
+
+	* main.c: split out disk booting into disk.c and netbooting into
+	net.c.
+
+Fairly recently:
+	* Network booting support added by Dave Larson
+	  <dlarson@cs.arizona.edu>
+
+A long time ago:
+ 	* Default commandline argument handling by Michael Schwingen 
+	  <rincewind@discworld.oche.de>
+
+A very long time ago:
+	* Filesystem support added by David Mosberger <davidm@cs.arizona.edu>

+- Edit Makefile and include/config.h to suite your needs.  For most
+  purposes, the distributed version should work fine.  Note that
+  the CONFIG_FILE_PARTITION macro is still present like in earlier
+  version, but since aboot-0.5 allows you to select a partition via
+  the boot-commandline, the value for that macro is not as critical
+  anymore. Users of certain versions of gcc (2.96 and later?) 
+  may need to add '-ffreestanding' flag to CFLAGS, in the Makefile.
+
+- Type "make".
+
+- To install the newly created aboot image (named "bootlx"), in most cases,
+  you use swriteboot (found in the sdisklabel directory), like this:
+
+    # swriteboot -c[boot partition #] [boot device] bootlx
+
+  for example, on my system, the kernel images (and aboot.conf) are on my 
+  root partition, /dev/sda2. hence:
+
+    # swriteboot -c2 /dev/sda bootlx
+  
+  DON'T DO THIS UNLESS YOU'RE SURE OF THE PARTITION INFO. If you don't know 
+  exactly what you're doing, and your system already boots okay, there's no 
+  reason to be installing a new bootloader.
+
+  For more info, read the SRM HOWTO, in doc/faq/srm.html, or at:

+This is release 0.9 of aboot, the Linux/Alpha loader for SRM.
+
+Aboot is based on the standard Linux/Alpha bootloader, with extensions
+by David Mosberger and Michael Schwingen (prompt for arguments, kernel
+argument mapping using /etc/aboot.conf file). It is currently maintained
+by Will Woods.
+
+For more information about aboot and SRM, see the SRM Firmware HOWTO, in 
+doc/faq/srm.html, or at http://www.alphalinux.org/faq/srm.html
+
+Good luck and enjoy...

+-Will Woods <will.woods@compaq.com>  Oct 25, 2001
+
+---
+
+New with version 0.9:
+
+ - new and (hopefully) improved man pages
+ - Crash when booting from a path containing a long filename on isofs fixed
+ - listing directories on isofs works
+ - symlinks on isofs work
+ - Failure to boot when kernel was past the 2GB boundary on ext2 fs fixed
+ - cylinder-counting bug in sdisklabel fixed
+
+[Note: there was no (official) version 0.8.]
+
+New with version 0.7:
+
+ - aboot now supports an initial ramdisk, which can be loaded from an
+   arbitrary file on any supported filesystem.  To use this, pass an
+   'initrd=/path/to/file' argument in the boot flags, or use the 'i'
+   command from the interactive menu.
+
+ - a.out support has been removed.
+
+ - (as of 0.7a) "raw" booting no longer is - you must use an
+   uncompressed ELF kernel.
+
+ - Many bugs in the ISO filesystem code have been found and fixed.
+
+ - swriteboot incorporates the functionality of abootconf.
+
+New with version 0.6:
+
+ - The various patches from the Red Hat, Debian, and SuSE packages
+   have been merged back in.
+
+ - ext2 partitions with >1024 byte block sizes and sparse superblocks
+   are now (hopefully) supported. (from Red Hat?)
+
+ - aboot can now follow symbolic links on ext2 filesystems.
+
+ - aboot no longer passes the bootdevice= and bootfile= flags to the
+   kernel, as the code for guessing the boot device was completely
+   broken, and these options are not used at all by current kernels.
+
+ - aboot is now built as an ELF image (since that's what the current
+   toolchain supports), and code to strip it accordingly has been
+   added (from Richard Henderson)
+
+ - isomarkboot now has an option to specify the root filesystem image
+   to be loaded (from Debian)
+
+ - swriteboot tries to preserve the boot partition setting from a
+   previous aboot installation.
+
+New with version 0.5:
+
+ - IMPORTANT: e2writeboot now expects a _raw_ file, not an ECOFF
+   object file.  So be sure to write aboot using the command:
+
+	e2writeboot /dev/fd0 bootlx
+
+   This change has been made so e2writeboot and s2writeboot are more
+   consistent.  It also makes it easier to support multiple object
+   file formats.
+
+ - The location the partition containing /etc/aboot.conf can now be
+   specified on the commandline: -fl 3:0 selects the aboot.conf line
+   0 on partition 3.
+ 
+ - Booting of ELF object files is now supported.  In the process of
+   adding ELF suport, the build tool has been rewritten from scratch
+   (it's now a lot simpler despite supporting two object file
+   formats).
+
+ - Booting from an ext2fs partition that starts at an offset >= 2GB
+   now works.
+
+ - If the kernel load fails, aboot now drops into interactive mode
+   instead of 
+
+ - swriteboot now supports an option to force installation of aboot even
+   if there is an overlap between the aboot image and some partition. E.g.,
+   if partition 1 and 3 start at sector 0 (as is commonly the case for disks
+   partitioned under OSF/1), you can specify:
+
+	swriteboot -f1 -f3 /dev/sdc bootlx
+
+   WARNING: Using -f will obviously destroy any filesystem that may be
+	    present on the specified partition.  Use at your own risk.
+
+ - NOTE: I'd like to remove sdisklabel in future distributions (minlabel
+   should be all you need).  Let me know if you feel strongly about this
+   (one way or the other).
+
+New with version 0.4:
+
+ - abootconf allows to set (or query) the number of the partition that
+   aboot will use to lookup /etc/aboot.conf.
+ - support for net boot added (thanks to Dave Larson <dlarson@cs.arizona.edu>)
+ - iso9660 filesystem support added (based on Dave Rusling's MILO sources)
+
+New with version 0.31:
+
+ - e2writeboot is now included in the distribution.
+ - started with writing man pages for e2writeboot and swriteboot; pretty
+   cryptic, I believe, but heck, it's the best there is! :-)
+
+New with version 0.3:
+
+ - The commandline prompt changed to "aboot>".
+
+ - The contents of /etc/aboot.conf can be displayed with a commandline
+   argument consisting of a single 'h'.  After displaying the configuration
+   file, aboot will prompt for a commandline just like for the 'i' option.
+
+ - At the "aboot>" prompt, the user can enter a single 'h' to display
+   the configuration file.  Entering an empty line or a line consisting
+   of a single 'i' will keep the user in the "aboot>" prompt loop.
+
+ - Booting of raw (headerless) kernels is now supported again.  A raw
+   boot is requested by specifying a filename consisting of a single
+   '-' character only.  Booting ECOFF kernels off a disk without filesystem
+   is now supported via partition number 0 (in aboot-0.2, this was incorrectly
+   called a "raw boot").  For example, to boot a compressed ECOFF file,
+   one could specify the filename "0/-" (filename "-" on the zeroth
+   partition).  You can use the swriteboot command to write the kernel
+   for a filesystem-less boot.
+
+ - Booting from floppy disks now works again.
+
+New with version 0.2:
+
+ - If the kernel commandline consists of a single 'i', aboot prompts for
+   kernel file and commandline arguments (useful on machines such as
+   the Jensen, where the SRM limits commandline arguments to 1 argument).
+
+ - If the kernel commandline consists of a single digit, aboot looks up
+   the default configuration with that number in the file /etc/aboot.conf
+   on a compile-time defined partition of the bootdrive, and uses the
+   parameters given there as commandline arguments for the kernel (useful
+   where the SRM limits default commandline arguments to 8 characters,
+   and does not support setting a default filename).
+
+ - If the kernel filename consists of a single '-' or is empty, aboot
+   will perform a raw boot.  This involves loading a kernel starting at
+   the disk sector after the aboot code (currently, 162).  This kernel
+   must be a header-less ("raw") binary without any ECOFF header.
+
+New with version 0.1:
+
+ - Compressed kernels (using gzip) are supported (faster loading, less
+   disk usage).
+
+ - You can load the kernel from an UFS or EXT2 filesystem on any partition
+   of the boot disk.

+This document describes how to boot Linux/Alpha using the SRM console,
+which is the console firmware also used to boot 
+<productname>HP Tru64 Unix</productname>

+<Title>Who should read this manual</Title>
+
+<Para>
+You should read this manual if you are installing Linux on a new
+Alpha system that can only boot from the SRM console, or if you are
+installing Linux on an older Alpha system that can use the SRM console
+and wish to use SRM to boot your Linux installation.
+</Para>
+
+<Para>
+Because SRM is the only way to boot Linux on modern Alpha systems,
+and because it provides the proper operating environment for Unix and
+Unix-like operating systems (such as Linux), it is the recommended way
+of booting Linux on Alpha when available.
+</Para>
+
+<Para>
+Sometimes, it is preferable to use the ARC, ARCSBIOS, or AlphaBIOS
+console, such as if you have a machine for which SRM is not available,
+if you wish to dual-boot with <productname>Windows NT</productname>
+without switching consoles,
+or if you have hardware that is not supported by SRM.  On these
+machines, you will typically use MILO to boot Linux.  For more
+information, refer to the MILO Howto, available from
+<ULink URL="http://www.alphalinux.org/faq/milo.html">http://www.alphalinux.org/faq/milo.html</ULink>.

+<Title>What is SRM?</Title>
+
+<Para>
+SRM console is used by Alpha systems as
+Unix-style boot firmware. <productname>Tru64 Unix</productname> and
+<productname>OpenVMS</productname> depend on it and
+Linux can boot from it. You can recognize SRM console as a blue screen
+with a prompt that is presented to you on power-up.
+</Para>
+
+<Sect2>
+<Title>Getting to SRM</Title>
+
+<Para>
+Most Alpha systems have both the SRM and ARC/AlphaBIOS console in
+their firmware.  On one of these machines, if your machine starts up
+with ARC/AlphaBIOS by default, you can switch to SRM through the
+"<guimenuitem>Console Selection</guimenuitem>" option in the Advanced CMOS Setup menu.  To make <!-- FIXME Markup should do the marking -->
+the change permanent, you should set the <Literal remap="tt">os&lowbar;type</Literal> environment
+variable in SRM to "OpenVMS" or "Unix", like this:
+
+<Screen>
+&#62;&#62;&#62; set os_type Unix
+</Screen>
+
+</Para>
+
+<Para>
+Either one will work to boot Linux.  However, if you intend to
+dual-boot OpenVMS on this machine, you must set <Literal remap="tt">os&lowbar;type</Literal> to
+"OpenVMS".  Conversely, to return to ARC/AlphaBIOS, you can set
+<Literal remap="tt">os&lowbar;type</Literal> to "NT".
+</Para>
+
+<Para>
+Some older systems may not have both SRM and ARC in firmware as
+shipped.  On these systems, you will have to upgrade your firmware.
+See <ULink
+URL="http://ftp.digital.com/pub/DEC/Alpha/firmware/"
+>http://ftp.digital.com/pub/DEC/Alpha/firmware</ULink
+> for the 
+latest firmware updates and instructions.
+</Para>
+
+<Para>
+A few older systems (primarily evaluation boards such as the 164SX
+and 164LX) are "half-flash" systems, whose firmware can hold SRM or
+AlphaBIOS, but not both.  If you have one of these machines, you will
+have to reflash your firmware with the SRM console using the AlphaBIOS
+firmware update utility.  Again, see
+<ULink
+URL="http://ftp.digital.com/pub/DEC/Alpha/firmware/"
+>http://ftp.digital.com/pub/DEC/Alpha/firmware</ULink
+> for firmware
+images and instructions.  If you wish to return to AlphaBIOS on these
+machines, you may rerun the firmware update utility from a floppy in
+SRM using the <Literal remap="tt">fwupdate</Literal> command.  You can also start AlphaBIOS
+from a floppy using the <Literal remap="tt">arc</Literal> command.
+</Para>
+
+</Sect2>
+
+<Sect2>
+<Title>Using the SRM console</Title>
+
+<Para>
+The SRM console works very much like a Unix or OpenVMS shell.  It
+views your NVRAM and devices as a pseudo-filesystem.  You can see this
+if you use the <command>ls</command> command.  Also, it contains a fairly large set
+of diagnostic, setup, and debugging utilities, the details of which
+are beyond the scope of this document.  As in the Unix shell, you can
+pipe the output of one command to the input of another, and there is a
+<command>more</command> command that works not unlike the Unix one.  To get a full
+listing of available commands, run:
+
+<Screen>
+&#62;&#62;&#62; help | more
+</Screen>
+
+</Para>
+
+<Para>
+As well, SRM has environment variables, a number of which are
+pre-defined and correspond to locations in NVRAM.  You can view the
+entire list of environment variables and their values with the
+<command>show</command> command (there are quite a few of them, so you will probably
+want to pipe its output to <command>more</command>).  You can also show variables
+matching a "glob" pattern - for example, <command>show boot*</command> will show all
+the variables starting in "boot".
+</Para>
+
+<Para>
+Environment variables are categorized as either <Emphasis>read-only</Emphasis>,
+<Emphasis>warm non-volatile</Emphasis>, or <Emphasis>cold non-volatile</Emphasis>.  The full listing
+of pre-defined variables is detailed in the Alpha Architecture
+Reference Manual.  The most useful pre-defined environment variables
+for the purposes of booting Linux are <varname>bootdef&lowbar;dev</varname>,
+<varname>boot&lowbar;file</varname>, <varname>boot&lowbar;flags</varname>, and
+<varname>auto&lowbar;action</varname>, all of which are cold non-volatile.
+</Para>
+
+<Para>
+To set environment variables, use the <command>set</command> command, like this:
+
+<Screen>
+&#62;&#62;&#62; set bootdef_def dka0
+</Screen>
+
+</Para>
+
+<Para>
+If you set an undefined variable, it will be created for you, however
+it will not persist across reboots.
+</Para>
+
+<Para>
+The <varname>bootdef&lowbar;dev</varname> variable specifies the device (using
+VMS naming conventions - see <XRef LinkEnd="device-naming"> for an
+explanation of these) which will be booted from if no device is
+specified on the <Literal remap="tt">boot</Literal> command line, or in an automatic boot.
+The <varname>boot&lowbar;file</varname> variable contains the filename to be
+loaded by the secondary bootloader, while <varname>boot&lowbar;flags</varname>
+contains any extra flags.  <varname>auto&lowbar;action</varname> specifies the
+action which the console should take on power-up.  By default, it is
+set to <Literal remap="tt">HALT</Literal>, meaning that the machine will start up in the
+SRM console.  Once you have configured your bootloader and the
+boot-related variables, you can set it to <Literal remap="tt">BOOT</Literal> in order to
+boot automatically on power-up.
+</Para>
+
+<Para>
+Finally, two helpful console keystrokes you should know are
+<keycombo action='simul'><keycap>Control</keycap><keycap>C</keycap></keycombo>,
+which, as in the shell, halts a command in progress (such
+as an automatic boot), and 
+<keycombo action='simul'><keycap>Control</keycap><keycap>P</keycap></keycombo>,
+which if issued from the aboot
+prompt (or other secondary bootloader) will halt the bootloader and
+return you to the SRM console.
+</Para>
+
+</Sect2>
+
+<Sect2 id="how-srm-boots">
+<Title>How Does SRM Boot an OS?</Title>
+
+<Para>
+All versions of SRM can boot from SCSI disks and the versions for
+recent platforms, such as the Noname or AlphaStations can boot from
+floppy disks as well.  Network booting via <Literal remap="tt">bootp</Literal> is supported.
+Note that older SRM versions (notably the one for the Jensen)
+cannot boot from floppy disks. Booting from IDE devices
+is supported on newer platforms (164SX, 164LX, 164UX, DS20, DS10, DP264, UP2000(+), UP1000, UP1100 etc.). 
+</Para>
+
+<Para>
+Booting Linux with SRM is a two step process: first, SRM loads and
+transfers control to the secondary bootstrap loader.  Then the
+secondary bootstrap loader sets up the environment for Linux, reads
+the kernel image from a disk filesystem and finally transfers control to Linux.
+</Para>
+
+<Para>
+Currently, there are two secondary bootstrap loaders for Linux:
+the <Emphasis>raw</Emphasis> loader that comes with the Linux kernel and <Literal remap="tt">aboot</Literal>
+which is distributed separately.  These two loaders are described in
+more detail below.
+</Para>
+
+</Sect2>
+
+<Sect2>
+<Title>Loading The Secondary Bootstrap Loader</Title>
+
+<Para>
+SRM knows nothing about filesystems or disk-partitions.  It simply
+expects that the secondary bootstrap loader occupies a consecutive
+range of physical disk sector, starting from a given offset.  The
+information on the size of the secondary bootstrap loader and the
+offset of its first disk sector is stored in the first 512 byte
+sector.  Specifically, the long integer at offset 480 stores the
+<Emphasis>size</Emphasis> of the secondary bootstrap loader (in 512-byte blocks) and
+the long at offset 488 gives the <Emphasis>sector number</Emphasis> at which the
+secondary bootstrap loader starts.  The first sector also stores a
+flag-word at offset 496 which is always 0 and a checksum at offset
+504.  The checksum is simply the sum of the first 63 long integers in
+the first sector.
+</Para>
+
+<Para>
+If the checksum in the first sector is correct, SRM goes ahead and
+reads the <Emphasis>size</Emphasis> sectors starting from the sector given in the
+<Emphasis>sector number</Emphasis> field and places them in <Emphasis>virtual</Emphasis> memory at
+address <Literal remap="tt">0x20000000</Literal>.  If the reading completes successfully,
+SRM performs a jump to address <Literal remap="tt">0x20000000</Literal>.

+<Title>The Raw Loader</Title>
+
+<Para>
+The sources for this loader can be found in directory
+<filename>arch/alpha/boot</filename> of the Linux kernel source
+distribution.  It loads the Linux kernel by reading
+<varname>START&lowbar;SIZE</varname> bytes starting at disk offset
+<varname>BOOT&lowbar;SIZE</varname><Literal remap="tt">+512</Literal>
+(also in bytes).  The constants
+<varname>START&lowbar;SIZE</varname> and <varname>BOOT&lowbar;SIZE</varname>
+are defined in
+<filename>linux/include/asm-alpha/system.h</filename>. 
+<varname>START&lowbar;SIZE</varname>
+must be at least as big as the kernel image (i.e., the size of the
+<Literal remap="tt">.text</Literal>, <Literal remap="tt">.data</Literal>, and <Literal remap="tt">.bss</Literal> segments).  Similarly,
+<varname>BOOT&lowbar;SIZE</varname> must be at least as big as the image of the
+raw bootstrap loader.  Both constants should be an integer multiple of the
+sector size, which is 512 bytes.  The default values are currently 2MB
+for <varname>START&lowbar;SIZE</varname> and 16KB for 
+<varname>BOOT&lowbar;SIZE</varname>.  Note
+that if you want to boot from a 1.44MB floppy disk, you have to reduce

+ The bootloader can be installed on a floppy using the
+<command>e2writeboot</command> command (note: this can't be done on a Jensen 
+since
+its firmware does <Emphasis>not</Emphasis> support booting from floppy).  This command
+requires that the disk is not overly fragmented as it needs to find
+enough contiguous file blocks to store the entire <Literal remap="tt">aboot</Literal> image
+(currently about 90KB).  If <command>e2writeboot</command> fails because of this,
+reformat the floppy and try again (e.g., with <command>fdformat</command>(1)).
+For

+assuming the floppy is in drive <filename>/dev/fd0</filename>:

+<Title>Harddisk Installation</Title>

+Since the <command>e2writeboot</command> command may fail on highly fragmented
+disks and since reformatting a harddisk is not without pain, it is
+generally safer to install <Literal remap="tt">aboot</Literal> on a harddisk using the
+<command>swriteboot</command> command.
+<Literal remap="tt">swriteboot</Literal> requires that the first few
+sectors are reserved for booting purposes.  We suggest that the disk
+be partitioned such that the first partition starts at an offset of
+2048 sectors.  This leaves 1MB of space for storing <Literal remap="tt">aboot</Literal>.  On
+a properly partitioned disk, it is then possible to install <Literal remap="tt">aboot</Literal>
+as follows (assuming the disk is <filename>/dev/sda</filename>):

+On systems where partition <Literal remap="tt">c</Literal> in the entire disk it will be

+On a Jensen, you will want to leave some more space, since you need to

+<Title>Selecting the Partition of <filename>etc/aboot.conf</filename></Title>
+
+<Para>
+When installed on a harddisk, <Literal remap="tt">aboot</Literal> needs to know what

+<filename>/dev/sda2</filename>).  Since it would be inconvenient to have to
+recompile <Literal remap="tt">aboot</Literal> just to change the partition number,
+<Literal remap="tt">abootconf</Literal> allows to directly modify an installed <Literal remap="tt">aboot</Literal>.
+Specifically, if you want to change <Literal remap="tt">aboot</Literal> to use the <Emphasis>third</Emphasis>
+partition on disk <filename>/dev/sda</filename>, you'd use the command:
+
+<Screen>
+# abootconf /dev/sda 3

+</Para>
+
+<Para>
+You can verify the current setting by simply omitting the partition
+number.  That is: <command>abootconf /dev/sda</command> will print the currently
+selected partition number.  Note that <Literal remap="tt">aboot</Literal> does have to be
+installed already for this command to succeed.  As of version 0.6,
+<Literal remap="tt">swriteboot</Literal> it will preserve the existing configuration when

+
+
+<Para>
+Since <Literal remap="tt">aboot</Literal> version 0.5, it is also possible to select the

+DOS partition tables are the standard used by Linux and

+BSD disklabels are used by several variants of Unix, including

+
+</Para>
+
+<Para>
+Now why do we mark partition <Literal remap="tt">h</Literal> as "reservd8" instead of "ext2"?
+Well, <productname>HP Tru64</productname> doesn't know about Linux.  It so happens that partition
+type "ext2" corresponds to a numeric value of 8, and <productname>HP Tru64</productname> uses the
+string "reservd8" for that value.  Thus, in <productname>HP Tru64</productname> speak, "reservd8"
+means "ext2".  OK, this was the hard part.  Now we just need to
+install the updated disktab entry on the disk.  Let's assume the disk

+
+<Screen>

+partition is still alive and well.  If that is the case, you can shut
+down the machine and start with the Linux installation.  Be sure to
+skip the disk partitioning step during the install.  Since we already
+installed a good partition table, you should be able to proceed and
+select the 8th partition as the Linux root partition and the 2nd
+partition as the swap partition.  If the disk is, say, the second SCSI
+disk in the machine, then the device name for these partitions would
+be <filename>/dev/sdb8</filename> and <filename>/dev/sdb2</filename>,
+respectively (note that
+Linux uses letters to name the drives and numbers to name the
+partitions, which is exactly reversed from what <productname>HP Tru64</productname> does; the
+Linux scheme makes more sense, of course ;-).

+<Para>
+<Emphasis>First big caveat</Emphasis>: with the SRM firmware, you can boot one and

+best to have at least two SCSI disks in a machine that you want to
+dual-boot between Linux and <productname>HP Tru64</productname>.  Of course, you could also boot
+Linux from a floppy if speed doesn't matter or over the network, if

+</Para>
+
+<Para>
+<Emphasis>Second big caveat</Emphasis>: installing <Literal remap="tt">aboot</Literal> on a disk shared with
+<productname>HP Tru64</productname> renders the first and third partition unusable (since those
+<Emphasis>must</Emphasis> have a starting offset of 0).  For this reason, we recommend

+<Para>
+Once these two caveats are taken care of, installing <Literal remap="tt">aboot</Literal> is
+almost as easy as usual: since partition <Literal remap="tt">a</Literal> and <Literal remap="tt">c</Literal> will
+overlap with <Literal remap="tt">aboot</Literal>, we need to tell <Literal remap="tt">swriteboot</Literal> that this is
+indeed OK.  We can do this under Linux with a command line of the
+following form (again, assuming we're trying to install <Literal remap="tt">aboot</Literal> on
+the second SCSI disk):

+<Screen>
+# swriteboot -f1 -f3 /dev/sdb bootlx

+<Title>Installation from the SuSE 6.3 CD</Title>
+
+<Para>
+The SuSE 6.3 CD-ROM is SRM bootable much like the RedHat 6.0 and 6.1 CD-ROMs. The best way
+to start the install from SRM is to use the following command:
+
+<Screen>
+&#62;&#62;&#62; boot srm-device -flags 0
+</Screen>
+
+</Para>
+
+<Para>
+In the above, the SRM device names for your
+CD-ROM drive is needed.  For example if the machine had an IDE CD-ROM
+installed as primary master the command would look like this:
+
+<Screen>
+&#62;&#62;&#62; boot dqa0 -flags 0
+</Screen>
+
+SuSE has added support to aboot to allow it to load initrd files. The above command will from the
+CD-ROM drive and use config number 0 from the <filename>/etc/aboot.conf</filename> file. For other variations
+on this refer to the SuSE installation guide.

+.PP
+
+\fBaboot\fR is the secondary boot loader needed if
+the Linux/Alpha system is booted via SRM. It is usually installed during
+system installation by \fBswriteboot\fR(8). 
+.PP
+To automate the booting process predefined boot configurations can be stored
+in \fIetc/aboot.conf\fR(5). 
+.PP
+\fBaboot\fR can also be used interactively by issuing
+.PP
+\fBboot \fIdka0 -fl "i"\fB\fR
+.PP
+at the SRM-Prompt where dka0 has to be replaced by the device used. 
+.PP
+In the interactive mode you can use the command h to show your current
+\fIetc/aboot.conf\fR and then the appropriate number
+(or a complete boot command as in SRM) to boot Linux.
+.PP
+If you do not want to use the \fIetc/aboot.conf\fR as set
+up by \fBabootconf\fR you can explicitly tell 
+\fBaboot\fR where to look for \fIetc/aboot.conf\fR by prepending the number of the configuration with the proper
+partition, i.e. if your \fIetc/aboot.conf\fR is on your
+second partition and you want to boot the entry labeled three you would
+issue
+.PP
+\fBboot \fIdqa -fl "2:3"\fB\fR
+.PP
+Note that this applies to Linux booting via SRM only as
+VMS, Tru64, *BSD and
+Windows NT each have their own secondary boot loader.
+Furthermore \fBaboot\fR is also not needed if the system is booted via
+\fBmilo\fR.

+\fIaboot.conf\fR contains a list of boot settings
+for \fBaboot\fR(8). Each boot setting
+has a unique number which can be supplied at the SRM-Prompt.
+.
+.PP
+\fIaboot.conf\fR must be in a directory called
+\fIetc\fR on the \fBsame partition\fR
+as your kernels reside on unless you explicitly list the partitions
+for your kernels (see below for details). So if you create a separate
+boot partition (called \fI/boot\fR) then
+\fIaboot.conf\fR should reside in \fI/boot/etc/\fR.
+.PP
+In the following example the kernels reside on a different partition (hda4)
+then \fI/\fR belongs to (hda5) while in the fourth
+line \fI/boot\fR is on the same partition (hda6) as
+\fI/\fR.
+Therefore \fIaboot.conf\fR can be located on any of the
+three partitions but \fBalways\fR in a directory
+\fIetc\fR at the top level of the file system on that
+partition. You can change the partition to use with

+.TH "ABOOTCONF" "8" "26 Oktober 2003" "abootconf" ""
+.SH NAME
+abootconf \- Configure the location of the configuration file for the secondary bootloader aboot(8) for Linux/Alpha.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.sp
+\fBabootconf\fR \fB/dev/xxx num\fR
+.SH "COPYRIGHT"
+.PP
+\fBabootconf\fR is Copyright (C) 1996 Linus Torvalds, David Mosberger-Tang and Michael Schwingen
+.SH "DESCRIPTIONS"
+.PP
+
+
+\fBabootconf\fR is used to change the partition
+the alpha Linux boot loader \fBaboot\fR(8)
+looks for its configuration file in. The configuration file is stored
+in \fIetc/aboot.conf\fR(5)
+relative to the root of the file system in this partition.
+.PP
+\fBabootconf\fR requires the boot device
+(e.g. \fI/dev/hdb\fR, \fI/dev/sda\fR) and the
+partition
+to be used (e.g. 3). Thus if you want to boot from partition E: on your second
+SCSI disk you would enter
+.PP
+\fBabootconf \fI/dev/sdb 5\fB\fR
+.SH "NOTES"
+.PP
+\fBabootconf\fR is not needed if you are booting
+your alpha system via \fBmilo\fR. 
+.PP
+For each disk one partition can be activated to contain the configuration
+for \fBaboot\fR(8) which is located in
+\fIetc/aboot.conf\fR(5).
+The disk chosen to boot from is selected at
+the SRM prompt as the second argument, e.g.
+.PP
+\fBboot \fIdqa\fB\fR
+.PP
+to boot from your first IDE hard disk. See the HP SRM-Manual and
+\fBaboot\fR(8)
+for details.
+.PP
+\fBaboot\fR(8) can load a kernel from an
+arbitrary partition and can even use a different
+root partition than the one \fIetc/aboot.conf\fR
+belongs to. Hence you would usually
+set up one \fIetc/aboot.conf\fR with all combinations and
+would not require \fBabootconf\fR except for initial
+set up. You can then
+boot the requested
+Linux kernel by giving the appropriate flags at the SRM prompt, e.g. to boot
+the entry labeled 2 you would use
+.PP
+\fBboot \fIdqa -fl "2"\fB\fR
+.PP
+See the HP SRM manual and \fIaboot.conf\fR(5)
+for details.
+.PP
+To show the current setting simply omit the last argument (i.e. the partition
+number).
+.PP
+Note that you have to rerun \fBabootconf\fR if you updated
+\fBaboot\fR.
+.PP
+Strictly speaking \fBabootconf\fR is not necessary as
+you can specify the partition which \fIetc/aboot.conf\fR
+resides on at the SRM-Prompt by prepending the partition number and a colon
+in the flags-parameter, i.e. if \fIetc/aboot.conf\fR
+resided on the fourth partition and you want to boot the entry labeled 2
+you could also issue
+.PP
+\fBboot \fIdqa -fl "4:2"\fB\fR
+.PP
+at the SRM prompt.
+.PP
+Note that this applies to Linux only as VMS, Tru64, *BSD and
+Windows NT each have their own secondary boot loader.
+.PP
+Also note that for initial hard disk setup \fBabootconf\fR
+is no longer needed as \fBswriteboot\fR(8) contains the
+entire functionality of \fBabootconf\fR.

+=head1 NAME
+
+docbook2man-spec - convert DocBook RefEntries to Unix manpages
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+The SGMLSpm package from CPAN.  This contains the sgmlspl script which
+is used to grok this file.  Use it like this:
+
+nsgmls some-docbook-document.sgml | sgmlspl sgmlspl-specs/docbook2man-spec.pl
+
+=head1 OPTIONS
+
+=over 4
+
+=item --section <label>
+
+Use the specified manpage section number,
+if not specified in <MANVOLNUM>. Default is one (1).
+
+=item --date <string>
+
+Use the specified date in the .TH header.
+Default is today.
+
+=item --lowercase | --preserve-case
+
+Convert output file names and cross-references to lower case.
+Default is to convert to upper case.
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This is a sgmlspl spec file that produces Unix-style
+manpages from RefEntry markup.
+
+See the accompanying RefEntry man page for 'plain new' documentation. :)
+
+=head1 LIMITATIONS
+
+Trying docbook2man on non-DocBook or non-conformant SGML results in
+undefined behavior. :-)
+
+This program is a slow, dodgy Perl script.
+
+This program does not come close to supporting all the possible markup
+in DocBook, and will produce wrong output in some cases with supported
+markup.
+
+=head1 TODO
+
+Add new element handling and fix existing handling.  Be robust.
+Produce cleanest, readable man output as possible (unlike some
+other converters).  Follow Linux man(7) convention.
+If this results in added logic in this script,
+that's okay.  The code should still be reasonably organized.
+
+Make it faster.  If Perl sucks port it to another language.

+.\" e2writeboot - Write secondary SRM bootloader to ext2 filesystem.
+.\"
+.\" Translated to German by Helge Kreutzmann <debian@helgefjell.de>
+.TH e2writeboot 8 "27 Juni 2004" "David Mosberger-Tang" ""
+.SH NAME
+e2writeboot \- Schreibt den sekundären Boot-Lader in ein ext2-Dateisystem.
+.SH "ÜBERSICHT"
+\fBe2writeboot\fP <ext2fs> <bootlader>
+.SH BESCHREIBUNG
+
+\fBe2writeboot\fP kann zum Schreiben des sekundären Boot-Laders in ein 
+ext2-formatiertes Dateisystem (normalerweise auf einer Diskette) verwendet
+werden. Der Lader ist so geschrieben, daß die SRM-Firmware von diesem 
+Dateisystem booten kann (SRM ist die Firmware die auch zu Booten von 
+\fBHP Tru64\fP, \fBOpenVMS\fP und *BSD verwendet wird). Insbesondere ist
+der Lader so geschrieben, daß er einen kontinuierlichen Bereich von Sektoren
+belegt und der erste Sektor wird so aktualisiert, daß die SRM-Firmware den
+Boot-Lader finden kann. Der Lader wird immer unter dem Dateinamen 
+\fBlinuxboot\fP gespeichert und falls solch eine Datei bereits existiert, 
+wird diese ohne Rückfrage überschrieben. Dieser Befehl kann fehlschlagen,
+wenn das Dateisystem stark fragmentiert ist. In diesem Fall reformatieren
+Sie das Dateisystem mit \fBmke2fs\fP(8) (dies wird den derzeitigen
+Inhalt des Dateisystems zerstören, daher mit Vorsicht verwenden).
+
+.P
+Das \fI<ext2fs>\fP-Argument spezifiziert das Dateisystem oder spezielle
+Gerät auf das die \fI<bootlader>\fP-Datei geschrieben werden soll. Die
+Boot-Lader-Datei muß eine ECOFF-Objektdatei sein. Ein typischer Befehl,
+um eine Diskette mit dem \fIaboot\fP(8)-Lader zu machen, ist im folgenden
+gezeigt:
+
+.I »e2writeboot /dev/fd0 aboot«

+<productname>DOS</productname>-artigen Partitionierungsschematas auf jeder

+<productname>HP Tru64</productname> gemeinsam nutzen wollen, verwenden.
+Falls Sie stattdessen mit <application>milo</application> booten, dann
+dürfen Sie <emphasis>keine</emphasis> Disklabels auf Ihrer 
+Boot-Festplatte verwenden.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Selbst wenn Sie Disklabels verwenden, wird der Einsatz von 
+<application>fdisk</application>(8) anstelle von 
+<application>sdisklabel</application> empfohlen.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+<application>sdisklabel</application> nimmt desweiteren an, daß Sie
+eine SCSI-Festplatte mit 512 Byte Sektoren haben, obwohl es auch 
+problemlos auf IDE-Laufwerken arbeiten sollte. Alle Größenangaben werden
+auf der Kommandozeile in Sektoren angegeben.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Es gibt insgesamt 8 Partitionen, nummeriert von 0 bis 7. Sie entsprechen
+den BSD Disklabels A bis H. Partitionen müssen sequentiell hinzugefügt
+werden, da <application>sdisklabel</application> im Gegensatz zu vielen anderen
+BSD-Disklabel-Programmen keine leeren Partitionen erlaubt. Falls Sie dies
+möchten (oder falls Sie überlappende Disklabels wollen), verwenden Sie
+stattdessen <application>fdisk</application>(8).
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Zuersteinmal, wenn Sie ein ungültiges Disklabel haben (Sie haben
+<application>sdisklabel</application> auf dieser Festplatte nie zuvor
+verwendet), dann müssen Sie
+</para>
+
+<para>
+<command>
+sdisklabel <parameter>/dev/sda zero</parameter>

+</para>
+
+<para>
+eingeben (<filename>/dev/sda</filename> ist das Gerät, das Sie
+partitionieren, passen Sie es entsprechend an).
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Dies überschreibt Ihr Disklabel. Verwenden Sie dies nur, wenn Sie das
+Disklabel wirklich überschreiben wollen. Es macht genau das; es fragt
+nicht, oder warnt nicht, oder sonstwas.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Das Programm hat wahrscheinlich auch die Größe Ihrer Festplatte in kB
+ausgegeben. Falls dies falsch war, können Sie die »<parameter>size 
+xxx</parameter>«-Option zusammen mit den restlichen Kommandos verwenden. 
+Die Größe ist nicht kritisch, sie wird nur verwendet, um zu versuchen, 
+sie am Überschreiten des Endes der Festplatte zu hindern. 
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Als nächstes fügen Sie Ihre erste Partition hinzu. Diese fängt
+<emphasis>nicht</emphasis> bei 0 an, da Sie für den Bootloader und
+anderen Kram Platz lassen müssen. 256 kB (oder 512 Sektoren) sind genug.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Nehmen wir an, daß Sie eine 250000 kB große Partition, beginnend beim
+Sektor-Offset 512, anlegen wollen:
+</para>
+
+<para>
+<command>
+sdisklabel <parameter>/dev/sda 0 512 500000 8 print</parameter>
+</command>
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Die letzte Zahl ist der Dateisystemtyp, und ist derzeit 8 für ext2fs
+Dateisysteme (Eine andere Zahl würde verwendet, um beispielsweise eine
+<productname>Tru64</productname>-Partition anzugeben).
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Falls alles erfolgreich war, zeigt das Programm die Partition an (das letzte
+Schlüsselwort, »print«, spezifiziert, das es die Partition nach der Veränderung
+mit dem vorhergehenden Befehl anzeigen soll), und Sie sollten etwas ähnlich zu
+</para>
+
+<para>

+\fBswriteboot\fP [-v] [-f#] <gerät> <bootlader> [kernel]
+.SH BESCHREIBUNG
+
+\fBswriteboot\fP kann zum Schreiben des sekundären Boot-Laders und --
+optional -- eines Kernels auf die Festplatte verwendet werden. Das
+Ladeprogramm ist so geschrieben, daß es der SRM-Firmware erlaubt, davon
+zu booten (SRM ist die Firmware, die auch zum Booten von \fBHP Tru64\fP,
+\fBOpenVMS\fP und *BSD verwendet wird). Insbesondere ist das Ladeprogramm
+so geschrieben, daß ein physikalisch kontinuierlicher Bereich von Sektoren,
+beginnend bei Sektor 2 belegt wird und das der erste Sektor so aktualisiert
+wird, daß die SRM-Firmware den Boot-Lader finden kann. \fBswriteboot\fP
+kann versagen, falls der Bootstrap-Lader zu groß ist, um in die reservierten
+Sektoren zu passen. Es wird daher empfohlen, die ersten 512 Sektoren
+einer Festplatte für Boot-Zwecke zu reservieren. Dies läßt 256 kB Platz
+für einen sekundären Bootstrap-Lader, was massig ausreichen sollte (derzeit
+ist der \fBaboot\fP(8) Bootstrap-Lader ungefähr 90 kB groß). Reservieren Sie
+mehr, falls Sie dort auch einen Kernel haben wollen - 2 MB sollte in diesem
+Fall ausreichen.
+
+.P
+Das \fI<gerät>\fP-Argument bestimmt das spezielle Gerät auf das die
+\fI<bootlader>\fP-Datei geschrieben werden soll. Die Boot-Lader-Datei
+muß ein »Header-Less«-Image (keine Objekt-Datei) sein, die den rohen
+Inhalt der Text-, Data- und BSS-Sektionen enthält. Ein typisches Kommando
+um SCSI-Platte 0 bootbar mit dem \fIaboot\fP(8)-Lader zu machen wird im
+folgenden gezeigt:
+
+.I »swriteboot /dev/sda bootlx«
+
+.P
+Die \fI-v\fP Option sorgt für etwas ausführlichere Meldungen von
+\fBswriteboot\fP.
+.P
+Die \fI-f#\fP Option teilt \fBswriteboot\fP mit, einen Überlapp des Bootbereichs
+mit der Partition \fI#\fP zu ignorieren.
+.P
+Die \fI-c#\fP Option teilt \fBswriteboot\fP explizit die Boot-Partition mit.
+Falls dieses Argument fehlt, versucht \fBswriteboot\fP falls möglich die
+Boot-Partition automatisch zu erkennen. Beachten Sie, daß Sie die 
+Boot-Partition später ebenfalls mit \fBabootconf\fP(8) setzten können.

+.\" e2writeboot - Write secondary SRM bootloader to ext2 filesystem.
+.TH e2writeboot 8 "17 January 1995" "David Mosberger-Tang" ""
+.SH NAME
+e2writeboot \- Write secondary SRM bootloader to ext2 filesystem.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fBe2writeboot\fP <ext2fs> <bootloader>
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+
+\fBe2writeboot\fP can be used to write a secondary bootstrap loader to
+an ext2 formatted filesystem (normally on a floppy disk).  The loader
+is written in a way that allows the SRM firmware to boot from the
+filesystem (SRM is the firmware that is also used to boot
+\fBHP Tru64\fP, \fBOpenVMS\fP and *BSD).  Specifically, the
+loader is written to occupy a physically
+contiguous range of sectors and the first sector is updated such that
+the SRM firmware can find the boot loader.  The loader is always
+stored with filename \fBlinuxboot\fP and if such a file already
+exists, it will be overwritten unconditionally.  This command may
+fail if the filesystem is highly fragmented.  If so, re-format the
+filesystem with \fBmke2fs\fP(8) (this will destroy the existing contents
+of the filesystem, so use this with care).
+
+.P
+The \fI<ext2fs>\fP argument specifies the filesystem or special device
+to which the \fI<bootloader>\fP file should be written to.  The boot
+loader file must be an ECOFF object file.  A typical command to make a
+floppy disk bootable with the \fIaboot\fP(8) loader is shown below:
+
+.I "e2writeboot /dev/fd0 aboot"

+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.sp
+\fBisomarkboot\fR \fB/dev/xxx\fR \fBpath/to/bootlx\fR [ \fBpath/to/root.bin\fR ] 
+.SH "COPYRIGHT"
+.PP
+\fBisomarkboot\fR is Copyright (C) 1996 David Mosberger-Tang
+.SH "DESCRIPTIONS"
+.PP
+
+\fBisomarkboot\fR
+enables ISO images created with \fBmkisofs\fR(8) or
+retrieved from the net
+to be booted on Linux/Alpha systems.
+.PP
+First you have to prepare your ISO image and mount it loopback on
+\fI/dev/xxx\fR (typically \fI/dev/loop0\fR)
+(see \fBmount\fR(8) for details). 
+.PP
+Next you need to locate the aboot-loader (called \fIbootlx\fR)
+and the ram disk image containing the root file system (the latter is optional
+but usually sensible to specify) which is often called 
+\fIroot.bin\fR within your ISO image.
+.PP
+Finally enable the image to be booted:
+.PP
+\fBisomarkboot \fI/dev/xxx path/to/bootlx path/to/root.bin\fB\fR
+.PP
+A typical location of \fIbootlx\fR on the disk image is
+\fIboot/bootlx\fR. The path of \fIbootlx\fR
+and \fIroot.bin\fR are relative to the root of the image. If
+your image is not mounted you have to replace \fI/dev/xxx\fR
+with the path to the image.
+.PP
+Finally you have to burn the CD using e.g.
+\fBxcdroast\fR after unmounting the image.
+.SH "BUGS"
+.PP
+\fBisomarkboot\fR is currently only available on 
+Linux/Alpha systems though it can be compiled and used with minor
+modifications on other platforms as well.
+.SH "NOTES"
+.PP
+\fBisomarkboot\fR is capable of handling symlinks
+within the image.

+\fBsdisklabel\fR is Copyright (C) by Red Hat Inc. The

+unable to do so. A final Bugzilla entry with RedHat yielded the following
+reply:
+``I can't track down a Bob Manson (and I cannot find any record of his association
+with Red Hat in the aboot sources), but any work he did on behalf of Red Hat
+would be property of Red Hat, and you can consider all our changes to be release
+under the GPL the same as the rest of the aboot package.''
+.SH "DESCRIPTIONS"
+.PP
+
+\fBsdisklabel\fR
+can be used to create partitions (called disklabels) on Linux/Alpha
+systems. You \fBmust\fR use disklabels instead of the
+DOS type
+partitioning scheme on any hard disk which you want to boot from via SRM or
+which you want to share with HP Tru64.
+If you instead are booting from \fBmilo\fR
+then you \fBmust not\fR use disklabels on your boot hard disk.
+.PP
+Even if you are using disklabels, it is recommended to use 
+\fBfdisk\fR(8) instead
+of \fBsdisklabel\fR.
+.PP
+\fBsdisklabel\fR also assumes 
+you have a SCSI disk with 512-byte sectors,
+though it should work fine on an IDE drive as well. All sizes are
+specified on the command line in sectors.
+.PP
+There are 8 partitions in total which are numbered from 0 to 7. They
+correspond to BSD disklabels A to H.
+Partitions have to be added sequentially, as 
+\fBsdisklabel\fR won't let
+you leave empty partitions unlike many BSD disklabel programs. If you
+want this (or if you want overlapping disk labels) 
+use \fBfdisk\fR(8) instead.
+.PP
+First off, if you have an invalid disk label (you've never run 
+\fBsdisklabel\fR on this disk
+before) you have to issue
+.PP
+\fBsdisklabel \fI/dev/sda zero\fB\fR
+.PP
+(\fI/dev/sda\fR is the device you're partitioning, 
+substitute as appropriate).
+.PP
+This zeros out your disk label. Only do this if you really want to
+zero your disk label. It just does it; it doesn't ask, or warn, or
+anything.
+.PP
+The program also probably printed out the size of your disk in kb. If
+it was wrong, you now get to use the "\fIsize xxx\fR"
+option along with the
+rest of these commands. The size isn't critical, it's just used to try
+and make sure you don't go past the end of the disk.
+.PP
+Next, add your first partition. This \fBdoesn't\fR
+start from 0, as you
+have to leave room for the boot loader and other stuff. 256K (or 512
+sectors) will be enough.
+.PP
+Let's pretend that you want to make a 250000 kb partition starting
+from sector offset 512:
+.PP
+\fBsdisklabel \fI/dev/sda 0 512 500000 8 print\fB\fR
+.PP
+The last number is the filesystem type, and is currently 8 for ext2fs
+filesystems. (A different number would be used to specify an
+Tru64
+partition, for example).
+.PP
+If all was successful, the program should print out the partition (the
+last keyword, "print", specifies that it should print the partition
+after modifying it with the previous command), and you should see
+something like
+.PP
+.sp
+.RS
+.sp
+.nf
+----------------------------------------------------------
+I think your disk is 528870K total size.
+If I'm wrong, override the size with the 'size num' option
+
+partition 0: type 8, starts sector 512, size 500000
+----------------------------------------------------------
+.sp
+.fi
+.RE
+.sp
+.PP
+You can then add the next partition, which would be partition 1.
+To add a second partition that is 200000 kb long, you'd run
+.PP
+\fBsdisklabel \fI/dev/sda 1 512256 400000 8 print\fB\fR
+.PP
+And both partitions would then be printed out.
+.PP
+If for some reason the size got determined incorrectly, you'd do
+instead
+.PP
+\fBsdisklabel \fI/dev/sda size 528870 0 512 400000 8 print\fB\fR
+.PP
+The size option should come immediately after the device name, and the
+size is the total # of sectors on the drive.
+.SH "BUGS"
+.PP
+\fBsdisklabel\fR does not check for all errors, so
+use with care.
+.SH "NOTES"
+.PP
+If you want to share the disk with HP Tru64
+(OSF/1) it is recommended to
+use the Tru64 
+partitioning tools to prepare the disk.
+.PP
+To actually boot from the freshly labeled disk you also need to install
+a boot strap as well, see
+\fBaboot\fR(8) and \fBswriteboot\fR(8)
+for details.
+.PP
+The print command may be placed before or after any other command.
+.PP
+In case you do want to leave empty partitions or create labels which
+extend beyond the end of the disk (e.g. when you know 
+\fBsdisklabel\fR is reporting a wrong size) then
+use can use the \fIforce\fR switch on the command line.

+can be used to create partitions (called disklabels) on Linux/Alpha
+systems. You <emphasis>must</emphasis> use disklabels instead of the
+<productname>DOS</productname> type
+partitioning scheme on any hard disk which you want to boot from via SRM or
+which you want to share with <productname>HP Tru64</productname>.
+If you instead are booting from <application>milo</application>
+then you <emphasis>must not</emphasis> use disklabels on your boot hard disk.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Even if you are using disklabels, it is recommended to use 
+<application>fdisk</application>(8) instead
+of <application>sdisklabel</application>.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+<application>sdisklabel</application> also assumes 
+you have a SCSI disk with 512-byte sectors,
+though it should work fine on an IDE drive as well.  All sizes are
+specified on the command line in sectors.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+There are 8 partitions in total which are numbered from 0 to 7. They
+correspond to BSD disklabels A to H.
+Partitions have to be added sequentially, as 
+<application>sdisklabel</application> won't let
+you leave empty partitions unlike many BSD disklabel programs. If you
+want this (or if you want overlapping disk labels) 
+use <application>fdisk</application>(8) instead.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+First off, if you have an invalid disk label (you've never run 
+<application>sdisklabel</application> on this disk
+before) you have to issue
+</para>
+
+<para>
+<command>
+sdisklabel <parameter>/dev/sda zero</parameter>
+</command>
+</para>
+
+<para>
+(<filename>/dev/sda</filename> is the device you're partitioning, 
+substitute as appropriate).
+</para>
+
+<para>
+This zeros out your disk label. Only do this if you really want to
+zero your disk label. It just does it; it doesn't ask, or warn, or
+anything.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+The program also probably printed out the size of your disk in kb. If
+it was wrong, you now get to use the "<parameter>size xxx</parameter>"
+option along with the
+rest of these commands. The size isn't critical, it's just used to try
+and make sure you don't go past the end of the disk.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Next, add your first partition. This <emphasis>doesn't</emphasis>
+start from 0, as you
+have to leave room for the boot loader and other stuff. 256K (or 512
+sectors) will be enough.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Let's pretend that you want to make a 250000 kb partition starting
+from sector offset 512:
+</para>
+
+<para>
+<command>
+sdisklabel <parameter>/dev/sda 0 512 500000 8 print</parameter>
+</command>
+</para>
+
+<para>
+The last number is the filesystem type, and is currently 8 for ext2fs
+filesystems. (A different number would be used to specify an
+<productname>Tru64</productname>
+partition, for example).
+</para>
+
+<para>
+If all was successful, the program should print out the partition (the
+last keyword, "print", specifies that it should print the partition
+after modifying it with the previous command), and you should see
+something like
+</para>
+
+<para>
+<blockquote>
+<literallayout>
+----------------------------------------------------------
+I think your disk is 528870K total size.
+If I'm wrong, override the size with the 'size num' option
+
+partition 0: type 8, starts sector 512, size 500000
+----------------------------------------------------------
+</literallayout>
+</blockquote>
+</para>
+
+<para>
+You can then add the next partition, which would be partition 1.
+To add a second partition that is 200000 kb long, you'd run
+</para>
+
+<para>
+<command>
+sdisklabel <parameter>/dev/sda 1 512256 400000 8 print</parameter>
+</command>
+</para>
+<para>
+And both partitions would then be printed out.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+If for some reason the size got determined incorrectly, you'd do
+instead
+</para>
+<para>
+<command>
+sdisklabel <parameter>/dev/sda size 528870 0 512 400000 8 print</parameter>
+</command>
+</para>

+The size option should come immediately after the device name, and the
+size is the total # of sectors on the drive.

+.\" sdisklabel - Write secondary SRM bootloader to harddisk
+.TH swriteboot 8 "17 January 1995" "David Mosberger" ""
+.SH NAME
+swriteboot \- Write secondary SRM bootloader to harddisk.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fBswriteboot\fP [-v] [-f#] <dev> <bootloader> [kernel]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+
+\fBswriteboot\fP can be used to write a secondary bootstrap loader
+and - optionally - a kernel to
+a harddisk.  The loader is written in a way that allows the SRM
+firmware to boot from that disk (SRM is the firmware that is also used
+to boot \fBHP Tru64\fP, \fBOpenVMS\fP and *BSD).
+Specifically, the loader is written to occupy
+a physically contiguous range of sectors starting at sector 2 and the
+first sector is updated such that the SRM firmware can find the boot
+loader.  \fBswriteboot\fP may fail if the bootstrap loader is too big
+to fit into the sectors reserved for boot purposes.  It is therefore
+suggested to reserve the first 512 sectors of a harddisk for boot
+purposes.  This will leave 256 kB of space for a secondary bootstrap
+loader which should be plenty (currently, the \fBaboot\fP(8) bootstrap
+loader is about 90 kB large). Use more if you want to have a kernel in this
+area, too - 2 MB should be sufficient in this case.
+
+.P
+The \fI<dev>\fP argument specifies the special device to which the
+\fI<bootloader>\fP file should be written to.  The boot loader file
+must be a header-less image (not an object file) containing the raw
+contents of the text, data, and bss sections.  A typical command to
+make SCSI disk 0 bootable with the \fIaboot\fP(8) loader is shown
+below:
+
+.I "swriteboot /dev/sda bootlx"
+
+.P
+The \fI-v\fP option makes \fBswriteboot\fP be a bit more verbose.
+.P
+The \fI-f#\fP option tells \fBswriteboot\fP to ignore an overlap of the boot area with
+partition \fI#\fP.
+.P
+The \fI-c#\fP option explicitly tells \fBswriteboot\fP the boot partition.
+If this argument is missing, then \fBswriteboot\fP tries to autodetect the
+boot partition if possible. Note that you can set the boot partition later
+on with \fBabootconf\fP(8) as well.

+ * A directory consists of some number of blocks of DIRBLKSIZ
+ * bytes, where DIRBLKSIZ is chosen such that it can be transferred
+ * to disk in a single atomic operation (e.g. 512 bytes on most machines).
+ *
+ * Each DIRBLKSIZ byte block contains some number of directory entry
+ * structures, which are of variable length.  Each directory entry has
+ * a struct direct at the front of it, containing its inode number,
+ * the length of the entry, and the length of the name contained in
+ * the entry.  These are followed by the name padded to a 4 byte boundary
+ * with null bytes.  All names are guaranteed null terminated.
+ * The maximum length of a name in a directory is MAXNAMLEN.
+ *
+ * The macro DIRSIZ(dp) gives the amount of space required to represent
+ * a directory entry.  Free space in a directory is represented by
+ * entries which have dp->d_reclen > DIRSIZ(dp).  All DIRBLKSIZ bytes
+ * in a directory block are claimed by the directory entries.  This
+ * usually results in the last entry in a directory having a large
+ * dp->d_reclen.  When entries are deleted from a directory, the
+ * space is returned to the previous entry in the same directory
+ * block by increasing its dp->d_reclen.  If the first entry of
+ * a directory block is free, then its dp->d_ino is set to 0.
+ * Entries other than the first in a directory do not normally have
+ * dp->d_ino set to 0.

+These are sources and binaries for a Linux/Alpha boot file installer
+and disk partitioner. They're horrible, and should be destroyed.
+We're going to assume you don't have OSF/1, but want to use your hard
+drive. If you have OSF/1, what are you doing in here??!?!?!!?
+
+The program also assumes you have a SCSI disk with 512-byte sectors,
+tho it should work fine on an IDE drive as well.  All sizes are
+specified on the command line in sectors.
+
+There are 8 partitions in total, and are numbered from 0 to 7.
+Partitions have to be added sequentially, as this program won't let
+you leave empty partitions unlike many BSD disklabel programs.
+
+First off, if you have an invalid disk label (you've never run this
+program before) you get to do
+
+	sdisklabel /dev/sda zero
+
+(/dev/sda is the device you're partitioning, substitute as
+appropriate).
+
+This zeros out your disk label. Only do this if you really want to
+zero your disk label. It just does it; it doesn't ask, or warn, or
+anything.
+
+The program also probably printed out the size of your disk in K. If
+it was wrong, you now get to use the "size xxx" option along with the
+rest of these commands. The size isn't critical, it's just used to try
+and make sure you don't go past the end of the disk.
+
+Next, add your first partition. This *doesn't* start from 0, as you
+have to leave room for the boot loader and other stuff. 256K (or 512
+sectors) will be enough.
+
+Let's pretend that you want to make a 250000K partition starting
+from sector offset 512:
+
+	sdisklabel /dev/sda 0 512 500000 8 print
+
+The last number is the filesystem type, and is currently 8 for ext2fs
+filesystems. (A different number would be used to specify an OSF/1
+partition, for example).
+
+If all was successful, the program should print out the partition (the
+last keyword, "print", specifies that it should print the partition
+after modifying it with the previous command), and you should see
+something like
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+I think your disk is 528870K total size.
+If I'm wrong, override the size with the 'size num' option
+
+partition 0: type 8, starts sector 512, size 500000
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+
+We can then add the next partition, which would be partition 1.
+To add a second partition that is 200000K long, we'd run
+	sdisklabel /dev/sda 1 512256 400000 8 print
+And both partitions would then be printed out.
+
+If for some reason the size got determined incorrectly, we'd do
+instead
+
+	sdisklabel /dev/sda size 528870 0 512 400000 8 print
+
+The size option should come immediately after the device name, and the
+size is the total # of sectors on the drive.
+
+That wasn't too bad, was it? The program doesn't do enough error
+checking, but it should work OK if you don't try to abuse it.
+
+!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+
+Adding a bootstrap to the HD
+
+This isn't exactly trivial, and should be done immediately after
+setting up the partitions (but not before...). I can't be held
+responsible if the bootstrap writer wipes your drive-it does hardly
+any error checking, tho it tries to make sure that you're not going to
+wipe out any partitions before it starts writing.
+
+The program basically writes a raw binary image (*not* an a.out format file)
+to the disk starting from sector 2. This can be generated from an executable
+by using the arch/alpha/linux/tools/build program found in the kernel
+distribution, or the similar program in the aboot distributiion. So to
+install the bootloader in bootlx, assuming you've partitioned your disk (and
+left enough blank space between the start of the disk and the first
+partition to hold the bootloader):
+
+	swriteboot /dev/sda bootlx
+
+When using aboot, you can also append a kernel image by using
+        
+        swriteboot /dev/sda bootlx vmlinux.gz
+
+If you invoke swriteboot with the '-v' option, it will be a bit more
+verbose.
+
+If you have to partition your disk with a program that does not allow to
+leave a blank (unpartitiones) space at the beginning for the bootloader,
+create a partition of the desired size instead. swriteboot will complain
+that the desired boot area overlaps with that partition, so you must use
+
+        swriteboot -f# ...
+
+where # is the partition number to force overwriting this area.

+
+		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+		       Version 2, June 1991
+
+ Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
+                          675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+
+			    Preamble
+
+  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
+freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
+License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
+software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
+General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
+Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
+using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
+the GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
+your programs, too.
+
+  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
+have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
+this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
+if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
+in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
+
+  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
+anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
+These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
+distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
+
+  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
+gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
+you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
+source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
+rights.
+
+  We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
+(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
+distribute and/or modify the software.
+
+  Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
+that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
+software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
+want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
+that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
+authors' reputations.
+
+  Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
+patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
+program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
+program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
+patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
+
+  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+modification follow.
+
+		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
+
+  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
+a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
+under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
+refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
+means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
+that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
+either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
+language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
+the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
+
+Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
+covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
+running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
+is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
+Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
+Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
+
+  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
+source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
+conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
+copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
+notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
+and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
+along with the Program.
+
+You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
+you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
+
+  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
+of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
+distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
+above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+
+    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
+    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
+
+    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
+    whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
+    part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
+    parties under the terms of this License.
+
+    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
+    when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
+    interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
+    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
+    notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
+    a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
+    these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
+    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
+    does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
+    the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
+
+These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
+identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
+and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
+themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
+sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
+distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
+on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
+this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
+entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
+
+Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
+your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
+exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
+collective works based on the Program.
+
+In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
+with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
+a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
+the scope of this License.
+
+  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
+under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
+Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
+
+    a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
+    source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
+    1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
+
+    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
+    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
+    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
+    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
+    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
+    customarily used for software interchange; or,
+
+    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
+    to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
+    allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
+    received the program in object code or executable form with such
+    an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
+
+The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
+making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
+code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
+associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
+control compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
+special exception, the source code distributed need not include
+anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
+form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
+operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
+itself accompanies the executable.
+
+If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
+access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
+access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
+distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
+compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
+
+  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
+except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
+otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
+void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
+However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
+this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
+parties remain in full compliance.
+
+  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
+signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
+distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
+prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
+modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
+Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
+all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
+the Program or works based on it.
+
+  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
+Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
+original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
+these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
+restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
+You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
+this License.
+
+  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
+infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
+conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
+distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
+License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
+may not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
+license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
+all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
+the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
+refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
+
+If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
+any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
+apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
+circumstances.
+
+It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
+patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
+such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
+integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
+implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
+generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
+through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
+system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
+to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
+impose that choice.
+
+This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
+be a consequence of the rest of this License.
+
+  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
+certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
+original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
+may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
+those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
+countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
+the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
+
+  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
+of the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
+be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
+address new problems or concerns.
+
+Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
+specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
+later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
+either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
+Software Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
+this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
+Foundation.
+
+  10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
+programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
+to ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
+Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
+make exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
+of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
+of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
+
+			    NO WARRANTY
+
+  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
+FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
+OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
+PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
+OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
+MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
+TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
+PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
+REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
+
+  12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
+WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
+REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
+INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
+OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
+TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
+YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
+PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
+POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
+
+		     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+	Appendix: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
+
+  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
+possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
+free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
+
+  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
+to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
+convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
+the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+
+    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
+    Copyright (C) 19yy  <name of author>
+
+    This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
+    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
+    the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
+    (at your option) any later version.
+
+    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
+    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
+    GNU General Public License for more details.
+
+    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
+    along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
+    Foundation, Inc., 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA.
+
+Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
+
+If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
+when it starts in an interactive mode:
+
+    Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) 19yy name of author
+    Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
+    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
+    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
+
+The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
+parts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may
+be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
+mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
+
+You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
+school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
+necessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:
+
+  Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
+  `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.
+
+  <signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1989
+  Ty Coon, President of Vice
+
+This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
+proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you may
+consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
+library.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General
+Public License instead of this License.
