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.
i386) so that the partition menu items match the selector letters).
XXX: All the .fr files need checking - look for the comment
/* XXX: ENGLISH -> FRENCH */
Only implemented for the i386; behaviour for other ports is
unchanged. For the i386, make this function remove some extraneous
files in /, and frob rc.conf to have rc_configured=YES. The defaults
are reasonable, and it saves the user having to set TERM and mount
filesystems by hand in order to be able to edit /etc/rc.conf
(XXX not very clean, but it's a workaround to be more user-friendly
for 1.3.2)
Also adapt a few messages slightly so they apply to both situations.
* Add `partinfo' type, for description of a single partition,
so we can pass labels by reference..
* Add label.c with label initialization, naive overlap-check code,
and a UI entrypoint edit_and_check_label() which iterates through
checking a label for overlaps, and if any, giving the user the choice of
fixing them or punting back to the main menu.
* Change return type of md_make_bsd_partitions from void to int.
Return 0 if the partition has problems (or the user gave up on it)
and 1 if the partition is completed and looks OK.
* Change install() to check return value of md_make_bsd_partitions().
If it returns zero, print an `abort' message and return to main menu.
* Add label.c to all ports' Makefile.
MD code tested on pmax and cut-and-pasted to other ports.
all pathname-on-server related definitions to MI code, since they are now
defined to be consistent across all platforms. Also, nuke the "rels" global,
since release numbers are now always specified in "long form", i.e. 1.3A
vs. 13A.
Add target.c to Makefiles.
* Minor fixes:
* Fix buglet in disks.c: make sure the target /etc exists before
touching the target's /etc/fstab. (Could be even cleaner.)
* If the target root is on /, don't copy our temporary /etc/resolv.conf
to the target /etc/resolv.conf. (Could be even cleaner.)
* Don't write the DNS hostname into /etc/defaultdomain.
DNS search paths are often not the same as YP group names.
parallel development. i386 version about 90% complete. pc532 version
just started, other architectures later in coordination with portmasters.
This is a curses based, menu driven installation program.
Better error checking is needed.
