whether modules are loaded and whether boot.cfg is evaluated, and
set both to "off" per default in the PXE bootloader.
Extend "installboot" to toggle the bits.
This way, pxeboot works with existing dhcp server setups (and as
described in the manpage) out of the box. Also, boot.cfg reading
involves a stat() call which is horribly inefficient with the
TFTP pseudo file system.
where sector size (disk block size) is required, instead of
DEV_BSIZE constant which means device I/O block size.
"Looks reasonable" from dholland@, and fixes tools installboot(8)
on Cygwin where DEV_BSIZE != 512 as mentioned in PR toolchain/42555.
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.
stage bootstrap is specified. It is only needed when we need to copy the
sector numbers of the second stage into the first stage.
Document that a configured baud rate of zero will cause the baud rate set by
the bios to be used.
_NETBSD_SOURCE as this makes cross building from older/newer versions of
NetBSD harder, not easier (and also makes the resulting tools 'different')
Wrap all required code with the inclusion of nbtool_config.h, attempt to
only use POSIX code in all places (or when reasonable test w. configure and
provide definitions: ala u_int, etc).

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)
