instruction.
Create md_hello message and move that message to it.
Port-maintainers: please reflect the reality of your port.
Someone who can write french: please correct *.fr catalogue.
you really should not be changing the geometry values, unless they
look totally ridiculous due to some BIOS bug.
Disable manual entering of initial partition label values when doing
a custom label. The step was redundant. Just go to the label edit
directly, leaving everything but the c and d partitions empty.
seperate booleans. Add flags to run as a plain 'system()' command,
fullscreen (but on a pty), and chrooted, and implement their
functionality. Add a bit of TIOCPKT handling code to handle
programs messing with term settings better.
* Ask to set the root password at the end of an install.
* Remove a few unneeded comments.
* Sprinkle some touchwin() calls here and there to make the output cleaner.
They shouldn't really be needed, but even normal usage (no syslog
messages) even left the screen messy sometimes.
* Change some messages around that were apparently swapped by accident and
thus caused confusion.
"target" filesystem, i.e. a filesystem that will probably be
mounted on /mnt during install/upgrade, but will be / when
the system is booted. Needed to deal with absolute symbolic links.
This function is (unfortunately) a verbatim copy of realpath() from libc,
with prefix handling added.
by checking uname, or the BOOTMODEL environment var), and set
the kernel setname accordingly for some bootmodels (tiny and laptop),
to install GENERIC_TINY and GENERIC_LAPTOP respectively. There's
no sense in installing plain GENERIC, especially on "tiny" systems;
it may not even make it far enough to add swapspace on 4M machines.
* Make sure to always install bootcode into the MBR (unless the user
explicitly tells us not to). Should fix PR#8887, PR#9093, PR#9999
enabling and disabling swap. Enabling swap is currently only
done by the i386 port on systems with <= 8M of physical memory.
If a user re-enters the install procedure through the main menu,
and the target disk has an active swap partition, try to disable it,
warning the user that this might lead to 'out of swap' problems,
making a restart necessary. This should not happen very often.
Partly based on comments by Simon Burge.
rather over the top. Not doing this also means that test(1) can
be omitted from the ramdisks (for scripts it's not needed, because it
is built in to sh(1)).
