\r
82 <para>As far as possible, you should perform the following steps in the exact order given since the

83 success of many steps relies on the successful completion of earlier steps. You should make backup
\r
84 copies of files and environments when you are instructed to do so. In the event of installation problems
\r
85 those copies can allow you to back out of a step gracefully and resume the installation from a known
\r
86 state. See <xref linkend="backingup"/> for further information.</para>
\r
87 <para>Of course, after you successfully complete and test the entire Evergreen installation you should

1809 line: <literal>"MY-LIB 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.254"</literal>. You must modify the file to use
