The software subsets described in this appendix are located on the CD-ROM labeled Digital UNIX V4.0B Operating System Volume 1.
Digital UNIX software subsets are divided into the following categories: optional, mandatory, and conditionally mandatory.
D.1 Mandatory Software Subsets
The
mandatory subsets shown in Table D-2 are always installed
automatically for the default and custom installations.
The Base System and the Base System-Hardware Support subsets cannot be deleted once they are installed.
The Standard Kernel Modules, the Kernel Header and Common Files, the
Hardware Kernel Modules, the Hardware Kernel Header and Common Files, and
the Compiler Back End subsets contain all the files needed to build a standard
kernel. You can delete these subsets after the installation by using the setld -d command to reclaim disk space after the kernel is built.
However, you will not be able to rebuild your kernel. If you need to rebuild
your kernel for any reason, you must reinstall those subsets with the setld command.
Table D-2 describes the mandatory subsets.
The optional software subsets can be deleted after they are installed.
The following is a list of the optional software subset categories.
Locate the category you are interested in and refer to the corresponding
table for subset descriptions.
D.2 Optional Software Subsets
The
optional software subsets contain software that supports a variety of applications.
If you choose the default installation procedure, these software subsets
are not available during the installation, but can be installed after the
installation completes by using the setld command. If
you choose the custom installation, these software subsets are available for
selection during the installation procedure.

the software subsets in this category.
D.2.3 Kernel Software Development Software Subsets
Table D-5 describes the software
subsets in this category. These software subsets are optional after the installation.
They will not appear on the optional software subset list during a custom
installation. Use the setld command if you want to install
these software subsets.
