chopps a291a8ed56 add non-rewinding note from 1.3 branch 1997-12-26 02:57:30 +00:00
fvdl 9630119c6d * mount NFS directory to get the sets from read-only,
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)

fvdl 1c63f10e93 Don't advise to throw away /.profile. The one used during install
will be overwritten by the etc set already. Also, add better
instructions on how to configure things once sysinst is done.

fvdl e6bb02fd88 Move the rgb.db file to the MD sets, XFree86 does it differently, so
the i386 uses something else at the moment.

only 125 bytes or so after commpression.)

gwr 92cab719b3 Aw crud. Commented the wrong line. 1997-12-18 22:22:32 +00:00
gwr ce5d046445 Well... it turns out that the ramdisk root runs out of inodes,
but it doesn't need the block devices nor most partitions, so
this can use a customized MAKEDEV to avoid making those.
(I'd rather not enlarge the ramdisk image right now.)
