NetBSD

Hi,
I installed Net BSD on a spare disk of my linux machine as I wanted to move
on to Net BSD. I had installed from a cd downloaded from the internet. The
systems seem to run and I an able to ping the other computers and routers on
my network.This version I installed does not have any browser or any other
packages. Is there any way I can install these?
Thanks for the help |

put this line into your .profile file (/root/.profile)
export PKG_PATH="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/3.0/i386/All"
Logout,
Login in as as root (or as user and su to root) and type
pkg_add -fuuv lynx
This will install the textmode browser Lynx. For running a graphical
Browser like Mozilla-Firefox, setup your X11 first:
XFree86 -configure
mv /root/XF86config.new /etc/X11/XF86Config
Install Firefox:
pkg_add -fuuv firefox
startx
....and choose "xterm" via left mouseclick.
Good luck with NetBSD!
