The following options may be set from this screen. NFS Secure: NFS server talks only on a secure port This is most commonly used when talking to Sun workstations, which will not talk NFS over "non privileged" ports. NFS Slow: User is using a slow PC or Ethernet card Use this option if you have a slow PC (386) or an Ethernet card with poor performance being "fed" by NFS on a higher-performance workstation. This will throttle the workstation back to prevent the PC from becoming swamped with data. NFS TCP: Use TCP for the NFS mount This option can be used if your NFS server supports TCP connections; not all do! This may be useful if your NFS server is at a remote site in which case it may offer some additional stability. NFS version 3: Use NFS version 3 This option forces the use of NFS version 3 and is on by default. If your NFS server only supports NFS version 2, disable this option. Debugging: Turn on the extra debugging flag This turns on a lot of extra noise in between dialogs (unless debugFile has been set, sending the data to a logfile instead). Optionally, if debugFile begins with a plus sign (`+'), output will occur both on standard output and to debugFile (minus leading plus). If your installation should fail for any reason, PLEASE turn this flag on when attempting to reproduce the problem. It will provide a lot of extra debugging at the failure point and may be very helpful to the developers in tracking such problems down! Yes To All: Assume "Yes" answers to all non-critical dialogs This flag should be used with caution. It will essentially decide NOT to ask the user about any "boundary" conditions that might not constitute actual errors but may be warnings indicative of other problems. It's most useful to those who are doing unattended installs. DHCP: Enable DHCP configuration of interfaces This option specifies whether DHCP configuration of interfaces may be attempted. The default setting is to interactively ask the user. IPv6: Enable IPv6 router solicitation configuration This option specifies whether automatic configuration of IPv6 interfaces may be attempted. This uses the router solicitation method of automatic configuration. The default setting is to interactively ask the user. FTP username: Specify username and password instead of anonymous. By default, the installation attempts to log in as the anonymous user. If you wish to log in as someone else, specify the username and password with this option. Editor: Specify which screen editor to use. At various points during the installation it may be necessary to customize some text file, at which point the user will be thrown unceremoniously into a screen editor. A relatively simplistic editor which shows its command set on-screen is selected by default, but UNIX purists may wish to change this setting to `/usr/bin/vi'. Release Name: Which release to attempt to load from installation media. You should only change this option if you're really sure you know what you are doing! This will change the release name used by bsdconfig when fetching components of any distributions. Media Type: Which media type is being used. This is mostly informational and indicates which media type (if any) was last selected in the Media menu. It's also a convenient short-cut to the media menu itself. Package Temp: Where package temporary files should go Some packages, like emacs, can use a LOT of temporary space - up to 20 or 30MB. If you are going to configure a small / directory and no separate /var (and hence a small /var/tmp), then you may wish to set this to point at another location (say, /usr/tmp). Re-scan Devices: Reprobe the system for devices. Use Defaults: Use default values. Reset all options back to their default values.
