+Installation is supported from several media types, including:

+.(Note
+Installing on a "bare" machine requires some bootable device; either an MO
+drive or a floppy.  When the target has on-board Ethernet, NFS installation is
+also available.
+.Note)
+.Pp
+The procedure for transferring the distribution sets onto installation media
+depends on the type of media.  Instructions for each type of media are given
+below.
+.Pp
+In order to create installation media, you will need all the files and
+subdirectories in these two directories:
+.Pp
+.Dl Pa \&.../NetBSD-\*V/macppc/installation
+.Dl Pa \&.../NetBSD-\*V/macppc/binary
+.
+.Ss2 Boot/Install from NFS server:
+.
+If your machine has a disk and network connection and on-board Ethernet, it may
+be convenient for you to install
+.Nx
+over the network.  This involves temporarily booting your machine over NFS,
+just long enough so you can initialize its disk.  This method requires that you
+have access to an NFS server on your network so you can configure it to support
+diskless boot for your machine.  Configuring the NFS server is normally a task
+for a system administrator, and is not trivial.
+.Pp
+If you are using a
+.Nx
+system as the boot-server, have a look at the
+.Xr disklabel 8
+manual page for guidlines on how to proceed with this.  If the server runs
+another operating system, consult the documentation that came with it (i.e.
+add_client(8) on SunOS).
+.Pp
+.
+Since NetBSD/macppc does not have floppy disk support yet, you need MacOS or
+another machine that can write the install kernel image to floppy.
