the full termcap distfile. In an attempt to reduce the madness
switch everyone (except the i386 cd install which does its own
thing) to the same (under 8K) termcap subset:
ansi ansi/pc-term compatible with color
dumb|unknown 80-column dumb tty
hp300h HP Catseye console
iris-ansi-ap IRIS ANSI in application-keypad mode
iris-ansi|iris-ansi-net IRIS emulating 40 line ANSI terminal (almost VT100)
sun|sun1|sun2|sun-il Sun Microsystems Inc. console with working insert-line
vt100|vt100-am DEC VT100 (w/advanced video)
vt220-8 DEC VT220 8 bit terminal
vt220|vt200|vt300 DEC VT220 in vt100 emulation mode
wsvt25 NetBSD wscons in 25 line DEC VT220 mode
wsvt25m NetBSD wscons in 25 line DEC VT220 mode with Meta
x68k|x68k-ite NetBSD/x68k ITE
xterm|vs100 xterm terminal emulator (X Window System)
Trying to provide similar functionality across all ports? It'll never
catch on...
CD-ROM as the root file system. It contains a limited subset of $DESTDIR
along with sysinst. This will help to massively reduce the amount of memory
needed to install from CD or netboot, and allow us to continue using the
generic kernel on the CDs.
Instead, specify "load /miniroot.kmod" per each boot menu
so that we can use bootcds to load any specific kernel in
other devices which doesn't need ramdisk miniroot.
Tested on qemu.
and create sums for it.
This means all the pieces to do network installation are easily accessible
following a release build (and will also come out of the build servers).
netbsd-GENERIC is in binary/kernel/
pxeboot_ia32.bin is in installation/misc/
miniroot.kmod is in installation/miniroot/
improved modularity and extensibility.
In the new architecture, a directed graph of argument-matching
objects (match objects) expresses the set of feasible ifconfig
statements. Match objects are labelled by subroutines that provide
the statement semantics.
Many IPv4, IPv6, 802.11, tunnel, and media configurations have been
tested.
AppleTalk, ISO, carp(4), agr(4), and vlan(4) configuration need
testing.
- Make MULTIPROCESSOR mandatory on i386.
Installation changes:
- Update installation section of release notes to match reality.
- Rename INSTALL to INSTALL_FLOPPY, retire INSTALL_LARGE.
- Build INSTALL kernel from GENERIC, like on amd64.
- Update boot menu to allow disabling ACPI and/or SMP.
- Remove GENERIC.NOACPI from the installed kernel list.
- TODO: install default boot.cfg in etc.tgz.
- TODO: possibly enable PCI fixup stuff at runtime if ACPI is disabled.
Build changes:
- No longer build ALL, it's for verification, is slow to build and the
build process is already crippled by the number of kernels built.
- No longer build GENERIC.NOACPI.
