network has not been configured (due to what ever local condition that
causes ping to fail, or whatever.) requested by kre in private email
many many months ago.
and some sparc64 fixes. details:
- new scripting_{,v}fprintf() that also write to the script log (if open).
- support of creation of LFS filesystems
- standard installs now allow one to choose which file systems to create,
out of the list of /usr, /var, /home, MFS /tmp, and swap. a / is always
created, but the rest all optional. [*]
- new disklabel method: use existing. this requires one to fill in the
mount points (and having at least a "/" is enforced).
- preservation of existing filesystems (at install) is supported.
- rewrote most of make_fstab(): the entire thing is generated from the
bsdlabel now, rather than hard coding / to 'a' and swap to 'b'. create
MFS /tmp if requested.
- if IPv6 support isn't present, don't display any ipv6 messages.
- better rc.conf support
- sparc & sparc64 default to "cylinders" now.
- choosing "standard" instead of "standard with X" de-selects the X pkgs
by default.
- sparc64: don't install bootblocks until we have a complete system, avoids
booting with no /dev/console.
- sparc64: bump STDNEEDMB, it is way low.
[*] i have added default values for DEFVARSIZE & DEFUSRSIZE (this is used
only if /usr and /home are selected) to each port, based on STDNEEDMB. as
such, my guesses might be wrong so port maintainers should look at these.
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.
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)).
do not save address/netmask/default router, if we got them from dhcp.
(we shouldn't do that). if we keep any of dhcp config into /etc, we shoul
update rc.conf to run dhcp again.
- on a IPv6/v4 dual stack network, it makes more sense to configure both.
- also, many of IPv4/v6 dual stack network requires us to contacd DNS
over IPv4 transport.

Shouldn't bother doing DNS lookups or wait a really long time,
should display verbose output and quit after the host has been
successfully pinged even once. count bumped up to 5 to give boards
which take a while to do media autoselection time to do their thing.
makes some things harder, for instance... Deal correctly with the case
where the user-supplied hostname is already fully qualified with the
domain name they supplied. Addresses PR#6955.
installation would try to continue even if no networking interfaces found,
and, and, when that was fixed, instead of dropping back to the
pick-distribution-medium menu they'd drop all the way back to the opening
menu.
screen as XXX. Where they were not followed by wclear(stdscr), add
wclear(stdscr). Somebody was let out without adult supervision. If i
were more adventurous, i'd remove the bits that output 'CL', but i'm not
gonna go there right now.
pseudo-devices. This is done by explicitly listing the driver names
(e.g. "lo") to ignore in an array in this file. Right now, "eon", "gre",
"ipip", "lo", "nsip", "ppp", "sl", "strip", and "tun" are ignored.
start of the URL so that the request will start from / (rather than
relative to the login directory; makes things work better for
non-anonymous FTP). To make it clearer what's going on, make the
default path (used to get distribution bits) relative. (according
to the 1.4 LAST_MINUTE file, this is OK.)
* Also, %-encode passwords in FTP URLs (doesn't help actual security, but
makes it slightly harder to figure out a password by reading over
somebody's shoulder).
cleanups before extracting a set. Should'nt do anything for an install,
as the filesystem shouldn't contain files that need to be removed.
cleanup_dist() is called before extract_file() for each set (the set name
is passed as parameter). It will open a file /dist/<set name>_obsolete
if it exists. This file should contain a list of files (absolutes
pathnames) that needs to be removed. cleanup_dist() will lstat() each file
to determine if it's there and if it's a directory or not.
It will then unlink() entries that are not directories and then rmdir()
directories. If a directory is not empty (it should now if the list of files
is correct) it will be renamed to <directory.old> and the user will be warned.
Other changes:
- move prototype of target_prefix() in defs.h, don't maintain a copy
of it in each file.
- in install.c, after MSG_disksetupdone, do a wclear(stdscr) (display was
clobbered after it).
- kill MSG_openmsgbuf, it's not used anywhere
- after MSG_disksetupdone in upgrade, don't call MENU_ok, do it the
same way as in install.
- add wclear(stdscr);/wrefresh(stdscr); before calling MENU_distset (another
display problem ...)
- While I'm there, move ask_verbose_dist() before MENU_distmedium. This way,
if all go well the user can go away one ftp starts and come back once
sets are extracted.
- in run_prog(), do an explicit wclear(stdscr); wrefresh(stdscr);
before launching subwindows. This seems to solve all the display
problems associated with run_prog().
enter partitions offet and size. The user can chose unit independantly of
the unit used for display ('M'/'c'/'s'). These functions do the proper
bound checks and alignement/roudups. Used in the edfspart menu and
i386 md_make_bsd_partitions() (other ports should do the change as
well).
- now that getpartsize() does the rigth thing, kill the swapadj hack (which was
buggy anyway).
- in i386 md_make_bsd_partitions(), don't propose defaults that don't fit on
the disk. If the disk is too small, fallback to custom instead.
- fix a bug in mbr.c, where the partition flags would not have always been
reset. sysinst created me a MBR with 2 active partition. The boot code
doesn't like it :)
- added a message for eventual mount failures.
- killed donewfs and extracting messages, as we run the commands in a
subwindow these messages just flashed on the screen.
- Changes a few exit(1) to return(1), to give the user a second chance.
- added msg_clear() or wclear(stdscr) in a place or two, to make
display a bit nicer.
- in run_cmd(), if the command succeeded, don't wait for the user to
press enter.
- Make all the functions called from do_install() return an error code,
so that we can abort install if something went wrong.
- Add a 'errstr' argument to run_prog(), which if not NULL is displayed
with msg_printf() and followed by process_menu(MENU_ok) if the command fail.
Used to warn the user that the current action is aborted.
- in a few places use msg_display() or msg_printf() rather than printf.
It seems that stdout/stderr are not always pointing to the active curses
window.
- garbage-collecd unused messages, add a few new one (error handling).
XXX only tested on i386. Other md parts should be tested as well.
encoded. This means certain passwords, usernames, etc., will not work
with "ftp ftp://...."
This code, submitted by Alan Barrett <apb@iafrica.com>, fixes this by
hex encoding unsafe strings in a clean fashion. This should close a
couple of outstanding PRs. Thanks Alan!
commandlines for all tar operations. (work supplied by Matt Green)
2) Update arch/*/md.c to deal with new sysinst/run.c. Special case
anything that needs to do a redirect or a pipe.
3) #if 0 some unused code in target.c. This code will need to be updated,
or special cased with do_system.
Big thank you to Matt for all his work on this.
Scripting and logging functionality for sysinst.
Child programs are run in a "display window" so you can actually see what
they did before the screen flashes back and you loose it all.
Lots of curses fixups. Removed nasty endwins that mangled the tty upon
rentry.
Change the yes/no box to accept Y or N, and not require cursor motion to
decide one or the other.
Perform curses redraws when doing things that could cause the kernel to
spew printfs onto your screen.
non-soft-settable media. Treat that as if there was no media output.
Use a supplied media-string of "<null>" or "<default>" or synonyms to
avoid passing explicit media flags onto ifconfig.
- ensure hostname from gethostname() is nul-terminated in all cases
- minor KNF
- use MAXHOSTNAMELEN over various other values/defines
- be safe will buffers that hold hostnames
same for floppies (from Christoph Badura)
* allow user to run 'Configure network' multiple times, to correct errors
for example.
* deal with network interfaces that need explicit media type selection
(i.e. ask for it when it is needed, also store it in the generated
/etc/ifconfig.blah file on the destination disk)
