dsl 17f917ce63 Move definition of BOOTSEL to MD Makefile 2003-05-16 19:38:18 +00:00
dsl 3c476fffb6 Pull some code fragments from machine and language dependant files into mbr.c
Resynchronise amd64 with i386

dsl d5c9f83022 Use C structure mbr_sector_t instead of char[] for 'mbr'.
(I hope the edits for the ports I can't build are right!)
i386/amd64 pick up a minor change to the md_read_bootcode which
might preseve the bootselect config.

fvdl d25150d087 Don't try to convert the CHS values if not needed. Add extra flag
to write_mbr to for this.

fvdl 337300d376 Change partition type if we're installing into an old 386bsd partition.
Check if there's no active partition after MBR editing.
Ask for own MBR to be installed if we're booting from out of CHS range.
Ask for bootselector to be installed if > 1 OS, and configure it.

fvdl a5d73e00eb Rework the MBR code, and some of the labelling code.
* Use structures, not 2-dimensional arrays..
	* Use the DIOCGDEFLABEL ioctl to get the disk information,
	  to avoid confusion with (older) labels.
	* Don't ever call fdisk for partitioning. This was the
	  source of much confusion.
	* For the i386, use the BIOS geometry information passed by
	  the bootblocks.

Lots of things left to do, but it's a start.

jonathan 1483395dbe Move DOS BIOS-geometry and MBR-handling code to MI code for powerpc, arc:
* Split bios geometry and MBR partition editing code formerly in
    arch/i386/{md,fdisk}.c to mbr.c in mi  directory.
  * Leave /sbin/fdisk parsing/handling code in separate file,
    we may want to change it later. move to mi directory.
  * Create mbr.h with declarations for MBR/BIOS-geomotry code.
    #include "mbr.h" in  i386 md.h.
  * Use symbolic names for 386bsd and new NetBSD partition IDs.

Handle MBRs with both 386bsd and NetBSD partitions less stupidly.
