. If you're installing .Nx*M for the first time it's a good idea to look at the partition sizes of disk you intend installing .Nx on.
p Assuming a classic partition scheme with
a / (root) and
a /usr file systems, a comfortable size for the .Nx
a / partition is about 64 MB; a good initial size for the swap partition is twice the amount of physical memory in your machine (though, unlike .Tn SunOS 4.x, there are no restrictions on the size of the swap partition that would render part of your memory unusable). A full binary installation including X11R6 takes nearly 200 MB in
a /usr .
p You cannot use the security modes of the SPARC OpenBoot PROM.

p Some network devices (i.e. certain SBus cards) allow a choice between operating on a UTP or a AUI port. The .Li le driver supports automatic detection of the port which is actually connected to the wire. If automatic detection is not available or not working properly in your environment, you may have to specify the type connection using the .Ar media parameter of .Xr ifconfig 8 . During installation, you'll get the opportunity to specify the appropriate medium. Use .Li 10base5/AUI to select the AUI connector, or .Li 10baseT/UTP to select the UTP connector.
