Hi I have recently downloaded NetBSD 1.6 (the package set) and I want to
get a GUI going soon. I would like it to be kde.
I have mounted the CD ROM in this fashion:
mkdir /mnt/cdrom
mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/cd0a /mnt/cdrom
cd mnt
cd cdrom
cd packages
cd All
ls |more
(to find the desired file)
ZZ (to exit more)
And I have installed packages using the command:
pkg_add filename.
Now all I need to know is how to go about it, which .tgz file for kde
should I unpack first?
I am doing this for a class project at Kent State Ashtabula Campus in a
course called Tech of Operating systems.
I would really appreciate any help you could come back with,
Thanks,
Jonathon Ireland
