While there fix an old bug that makefs used the build hosts /etc/group
and passwd information when creating the image.
Thanks to Andreas Gustafsson for extensive testing.
amd64/ramdisks/common/list.ramdisk.
Previously, the amd64 list.ramdisk used the small version of gzip from
distrib/utils/x_gzip, while the i386 list.ramdisk used the full version
of gzip built from usr.bin/gzip, and also used extra libraries needed to
make that work. Now, they both use the small version.
The only other difference was in the order of some PROG lines.
pre-define the LISTS variable if they do not want it to include
${.CURDIR}/lists. This opens the possibility of making some of the
many distrib/*/ramdisks/*/lists files shared in the future.
XXX: Some of the differences between these files seem to be unnecessary.
conversion of some constants to variables, this is identical to the code
that was previously present in both distrib/amd64/kmod/Makefile and
distrib/i386/kmod/Makefile.
Change distrib/amd64/kmod/Makefile and distrib/i386/kmod/Makefile to just
set some variables and .include "../../common/Makefile.minirootkmod".
to incorporate the OS name and version.
XXX should also not hardcode ${BOOTDISK} in the name, but that would
require reordering stuff and more testing than I have time for right now.
Another day.
As discussed on current-users@ back in March, with some adjustments.
depend on new devname_r(3) as heart. Add /dev/pts magic directly to
devname(3). While it can lead to returning non-existing paths, the
behavior is more consistent that way. Drop caching layer in devname(3),
it doesn't buy anything for the common case of having access to the
database. Teach devname(3) proper fallback behavior of scanning /dev.
Create both old-style and new-style database for now in /etc/rc.d/sysdb.
where configuration for crunchgen(1) is moved from ramdisk/ to common/.
For i386, only mbrlabel(8) and various LFS related binaries are added. Yes,
LFS. It was added to amd64 ramdisk 3 years ago, I believe it's for a good
reason... ?
Reasons being:
- INSTALL is GENERIC with an embedded ramdisk, and as such, can benefit from
features included within.
- INSTALL_FLOPPY has its own config(5) file, and is tailored for "small"
floppy images; it misses features/drivers that could be needed to boot
in a decent environment for recent x86 machines (like ACPI)
- makes it closer to floppies distrib available for amd64
While here, comment out INSTALL_FLOPPY and bootfloppy-big image build. NetBSD
does not use the 3.6MiB image for El Torito cdroms anymore.
Remove the FLOPPYMAX limit; i386 needs 4 floppies now. Modify boot.cfg and
release/contents to reflect reality.
