Install from the CD
<menu>

<li>  When asked about resolving names, select DNS, not NIS

<li> When gigascale was on the 171 net, 
I used the following name servers
<pre>
nameserver      128.32.171.23
nameserver      128.32.239.23
nameserver      128.32.156.24
</pre>
If you are on a different subnet, see
<a href="http://iris.eecs.berkeley.edu/idsg/network/#subnet-cory"><code>http://iris.eecs.berkeley.edu/idsg/network/#subnet-cory</code></a>
<li>I chose custom install, and did not install the ATM
        drivers etc.

 <p>Software to install
<menu>
<li> PC file viewer
<li> SUN vts (uses for testing hardware)
<li> Install the 'full install' rather than the 'developer' install.
If you go with the developer install, then fonts will be missing, and fvwm
may have trouble
</menu>

<li>  New sizes for a 9gig drive with 512Mb memory
<pre>
/    200
swap 512
/usr 1500
/opt 500
/export/home 5915
</pre>


<li>  After rebooting, I had to create a /etc/defaultrouter
file with the contents <CODE>128.32.171.1</CODE>.
If you are on a subnet other than the 171, you
would substitute in the value of the appropriate router
<li> Update motd
<li> Update /.cshrc to include /usr/ccs/bin and <CODE>set history = 999</CODE>

<li> Edit <CODE>/etc/hosts</CODE> and add
<pre>
128.32.32.203   doppler.eecs.berkeley.edu doppler loghost timehost mailhost
</pre>


<li> Edit <CODE>/etc/hostname.hme0</CODE> and
<CODE>/etc/nodename</CODE> and be sure that the FQDN is present:
<pre>
gigascale.eecs.berkeley.edu
</pre>
<li> Edit <code>/etc/hosts</code> and make sure
that the FQDN from the step above is in <code>/etc/hosts</code>
<b>The name must match exactly</b>
<li> 
<a href="http://www.gigascale.org/infrax/faq/43.html">Patch the OS</a>
<li> Either restore <code>/usr/cluster</code>
from backup, or copy it from source.eecs.


<li> Set up process accounting by running
<code>/usr/cluster/etc/setupacct</code>.
This script turns on process accounting and creates
backups of the accounting logs so that they saved to
tape every night.
<li> Set up cleaning by running
<code>/usr/cluster/etc/setupcleaning</code>
