* use cd0a rather than cd0[cd] as the CDROM installation device.
This fixes problems with platforms that install from iso9660 images
encapsulated in a partition, and should not affect platforms that
don't.
* add RUN_PROGRESS to the run_prog() flags for ftp installs.
Okay'ed by David Laight.
- rework run_prog() so that the program name (etc) is usually displayed if
the program generates any output, or terminates with an error.
Allow arguments to included in single quotes.
Try to collect console output so it doesn't interfere with curses.
- Add a '*' to the cylinder count if non-integral number of cylinders
(on disklabel editor)
- Only show partition type for unused partitions.
- Show size including unused space on '+' partition, remove a..z since
the don't relate to partition IDs (netbsd partition sizes)
- Fix deleting of 'user' partitions - killed size of next ptn.
- Don't default a swap partition is the disk already has one.
- Fix deleting of extended MBR partitions - changed size of ptn 2.
- Show error message if user tries something illegal in mbr editor.
- Default to old diskname (actually disk type - dunno why!)
- Use MI enable_rc_conf() to set RC_CONFIGURED=YES, use a single sed
command instead of a raft of code playing with files etc.
- Float some menus to just below header text, saves counting and lets
language variants have different height headers (use y=-1)
- Track whether anything is mounted on /mnt2 better.
- Put more texts into message file.
- Change english prose texts to be more correct.
- Stop french and polish versions core dumping if ptn start/size changed.
- Fix processing logic for saving /etc (action is still borked)
- Do tail-end setup if any sets (eg X) can't be found (but not if you give
in (yet)).
Add menu for all disklabel partition types.
Default 'partition type' and 'sizechoice' menus to current value.
Change 'standard/use existing' to 'set sizes/use existing'.
Remove the abberant call to endwin() in i386 md_update() that caused
echo to be left on. I've not removed the endwin from the other ports.
Only run MAKEDEV if etc.tgz installed.
Some extra sanity checks on an 'rm -rf %s'.
I've also made the set selection happen first. This lets me test it!
also measn the selected sets could be used in the disk partition code.
Removed the 'with X' disk layout question (now too late to change the sets).
This does change the default size of /, but I'm going to rewrite
make_bsd_partitions next to make it less user-hostile.
(I'm not sure adding in 2 * ram is actually useful! Especially size it left
/usr with a -ve size on all my test installs with 256MB ram and 1GB disk)
Make bootsel code delete menu names if the partition is unused.
Use raw device for cdrom access (I've a kernel that doesn't report an invalid
label so /dev/cd0a dosn't work).
Use strlcpy() instead of strncpy() where appropriate.
Recode timezone menu so that it can stand opt_name being const char *
and to only do the fts_read() once (there were problems if the filestore
changed between passes!).
Remove stupid check for errno != 0 which probably stopped the tomezone
menu being displayed!
on a set, instead of hardcoding the number of parts in sysinst (which gets
out of sync easily). The fdlast field of the distinfo struct has been
removed.
This solution is a bit simplistic but... anybody using the floppy
installation method will have to split sets himself (as we don't provide
them), so he will know which is the last one. Also, he will be able to
use whatever chunk size he wants.
Closes PR install/5050. Ok'ed by fvdl.
Use /var/db/obsolete instead of /etc/obsolete
etc/Makefile:
Create separate target "install-obsolete-files" to populate
/var/db/obsolete, instead of using "install-etc-files".
Makefile:
Add do-obsolete target, to run "cd etc && make install-obsolete-files",
and add this to BUILDTARGETS.
This moves the "obsolete files" creation from "distribution" to "build".
Per discussion with Andrew Brown.
- filenames in obsolete sets start with "./" not "/" (i changed that a
while ago, and forgot to update this)
- only call target_prefix() once, not for each filename parsed...
- look for obsolete lists in /etc/obsolete/%s instead of /dist/%s_obsolete
-e arg to abort after first error.
This means the extract process doesn't spew seemingly-endless
"No space left on device" if the destination partition fills.
and prompt the user for a new archive.
(No idea if this solves the infamous "sysinst random coredump" problem,
but it's worth a shot, and makes sense in any case)
Defaults to "ftp.netbsd.org"
- Replace make(1) and -D FTP_DIR with SYSINST_FTP_DIR.
Defaults to "pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-" + VER + "/" + MACH.
(FTP_DIR used to override "pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-", which meant the
path name had to contain the release version in it)
- Add make(1) and -D SYSINST_CDROM_DIR.
Defaults to "/" + mach.
- only append ftp_prefix to ftp_dir and cdrom_dir once, just after
the options are parsed. Do this in newly added set_defaults().
