miniroot install.md. Add usr/bin/file and usr/share/misc/magic to the
miniroot - used by the install.md changes. Upgrades will now move the
standard a.out shared libraries to /emul/aout.
dependent files:
- Use infrastructure from distrib/common to build file system images with
crunchgen-ed programs from a list file.
- Non root ("UNPRIVED") builds from a read-only source tree are possible,
as makefs(8) replaces vnconfig(8)/vnd use, devices are generated using
common/makedev2spec.awk, etc.
- Cross builds should be possible, except that some ports need cross-compile
host tool versions of installboot and any appropriate host disk labelling
tools.
XXX: pmax, sparc and vax need fixing for this!
- This code has NOT YET BEEN TESTED on most of the ports.
It should work, but it is extremely likely that the file system
parameters may need tweaking to get things to fit.
See MAKEFS_FLAGS in sparc/miniroot/Makefile.inc for an example.
If assistance is required, please ask!
Needs refinement at a few places, probably, and the docs still need to be
rewritten.
And we _still_ don't have a native partition table editor in the tree.
