If specified then checks on the disks BPB are not done, and any existing BPB
is deleted.
This is needed soince newfs(8) doesn't overwrite the BPB - which is basically
the FAT superblock.
Update documentation and add an example of using bootxx_fat16.
* Rename "config.h" to "nbtool_config.h" and
HAVE_CONFIG_H to HAVE_NBTOOL_CONFIG_H.
This makes in more obvious in the source when we're using
tools/compat/config.h versus "standard autoconf" config.h
* Consistently move the inclusion of nbtool_config.h to before
<sys/cdefs.h> so that the former can provide __RCSID() (et al),
and there's no need to protect those macros any more.
These changes should make it easier to "tool-ify" a program by adding:
#if HAVE_NBTOOL_CONFIG_H
#include "nbtool_config.h"
#endif
to the top of the source files (for the general case).
all the options have been processed that they are supported my the
specific system.
Add i386 MD options (console, password, speed and timeout)
(Approved by christos and lukem)
64 bit block pointers, extended attribute storage, and a few
other things.
This commit does not yet include the code to manipulate the extended
storage (for e.g. ACLs), this will be done later.

- bbinfo_params:
- replace "int littleendian" with "bbinfo_endian endian"
- add comments
- shared_bbinfo_clearboot():
- add callback method to shared_bbinfo_clearboot()
- don't clear from 0..headeroffset; use a callback to do that
- add news68k and newsmips support.
From Izumi Tsutsui <tsutsui@ceres.dti.ne.jp>, with a rework by me to
take advantage of the new shared_bbinfo_clearboot() callback.
(XXX: untested yet)
- unify sparc_bbinfo (1064 bytes, with 256 block entries)
and sun68k_bbinfo (296 byte, with 64 block entries)
into shared_bbinfo (512 bytes, with 118 block entries),
which will be also shared by future bbinfo-using platforms
(including macppc)
- add datestamp to *_BBINFO_MAGIC strings, to prevent installboot vs
bootxx version skew.
- add macppc support
*/bootxx.c:
- migrate to new shared_bbinfo structure
installboot:
- add macppc support (still needs applepartmap support and testing)
- improve and add some more warnings & errors to installboot
- implement shared_bbinfo_clearboot() and shared_bbinfo_setboot(), which
perform the majority of the work for bbinfo-using back-ends
(rather than replicating that across multiple back-ends).
and use instead of replicating the effort in various locations
- if filesystem is not a regular file, use sync(2) instead of fsync(2)
after the bootstrap has been written
- move <sys/stat.h> and <stdint.h> into "installboot.h"
- add `-B s2bno', to provide the starting block for the secondary bootstrap.
intended for use on platforms where the blocks of the stage2 bootstrap
are hardcoded into the stage1 bootstrap (currently: sparc, sun2)
- don't support `-b s1bno' for sparc or sun2, since the primary is always
at a fixed location on the disk.
- if `filesystem' is a regular file, use fsync(2) instead of sync(2)
code changes:
- add hardcode_stage2(), which uses -B s2bno and the size of the
provided secondary bootstrap (as an actual file, not as part of the
`filesystem' argument) to provide a sequential list of blocks from s2bno,
each block being the appropriate file system size (from
params->fstype->blocksize)
- add blocksize and needswap run-time parameters to ib_fs
- in *_match(), set params->fstype->blocksize to the underlying block size
(8KB for raw), and params->fstype->needswap as appropriate
- rename IB_STARTBLOCK to IB_STAGE1START, and add IB_STAGE2START
- use hardcode_stage2() to implement raw_findstage2() and IB_STAGE2BLOCK
support for ffs_findstage2()
- improve some comments, add some prototypes, ...
fstype checking, and back-end "ffs" support.
- Consistently use at least uint32_t for blocknumbers (vs. int / long / ...)
- Consistently use uintXX_t instead of u_intXX_t.
- Move various duplicated prototypes into "installboot.h"
existing backends, but future ones need it)
- use "bootstrap" instead of "boot block" in various messages where appropriate
- rename some members of ib_params
to use when they don't support a particular method
- don't automatically generate machines.c anymore
- add entries for i386 (temporarily unsupported) and shark
(permanently unsupported)
