Hello misc@,
I'm about to install OpenBSD onto an Edgerouter 6P - inspired by [1].
Since this router only has 4GB of eMMC, I'm wary of installing all sets.
FWIW, this is not the first time that I skip sets in an install, albeit
that in those cases, issues came up afterwards. Particularly, I once
chose to skip the X subsystem on one install only to find out that they
are required for some ports. Considering that adding sets afterwards is
a little more complicated than ftp && cp, I'm asking questions here
before I find myself in that situation again.
So, I definitely will not ever find myself in a situation where I need X
on the Edgerouter - I'm quite sure about that - thus, I can safely skip
x*77.tgz. (right?) What about comp77.tgz? Is it possible that some ports
- talking about pkg_add-ing them, not building them from source -
require the "libraries" that come with comp? Quoting the FAQ here: "The
compiler collection" (probably wouldn't want to compile anything on that
CPU, too RISCy...) "headers" (won't need those then) "and libraries" (do
I need them???).
Are my assumptions correct? Is there anything else to be aware of when
skipping sets?
Not talking about game77 - I doubt anything depends on that :)
