>Description:
the 2.0-branch shark install kernels reference paths like:

           server# gzcat .../shark/installation/instkernel/netbsd.gz >

when talking about the 'installation kernel' (netbsd-INSTALL).

However, that kernel is actually placed in

        .../shark/binary/kernel/netbsd-INSTALL.gz

dunno which is correct.  certainly, *I* expected to find it in 'installation'.


>How-To-Repeat:
look at 2.0-branch build.
>Fix:
change install notes, or change location/name of netbsd-INSTALL.gz, or
both.

State-Changed-When: Sun, 13 Sep 2009 18:51:54 +0000
State-Changed-Why:
In currently supported releases (4.0 and 5.0), this is not a problem.
shark/installation/instkernel/netbsd.gz is, as the INSTALL notes claim,
the installation kernel that one should use. So the documentation is
correct, which is enough to close this PR.  The rest of the issue is
covered by PR 41672.
