If installing from a pmax diskimage as both current root and target root,
the diskimage /usr/bin/tar is hidden underneath the target /usr mountpoint
when it's time to untar distribution files. From a comment in the change:
Make sure any binaries in a diskimage /usrbin get copied
into the current root's /usr/bin. (may be same as target /usr/bin.)
The rest of sysinst uses /usr/bin/{tar,ftp,chgrp}.
We cannot ship those in /usr/bin, because if we did
an install with target root == current root, they'd
be be hidden under the target's /usr filesystem.
Requires updated diskimage build script which populates /usrbin with
tar, gzip, gunzip, ftp, and chgrp (all statically linked.)
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.
RAW_PART for new labels, instead of just the latter.
Avoids shrinking RAW_PART label with pmax kernel-supplied default
labels or with already-labelled disks.
XXX Get real incore label, instead of default label instead (or as well)?
to 4.3BSD-style (BSD uses whole disk, 8 partitions, c=RAW_PART, d=/usr).
Initialize variables appropriately.
May be a good starting template for sparc, vax, others?
Use symbolic defines to allow changing the partition used for /usr (to
add a /var partition, or for consistency with i386).
* Use md_make_bsd_partitions() code lifted from the i386 version,
modified to set D partition size.
* Add the MD messages used by the above to sysisnt/arch/pmax/msg.md.eng.
* Add X11 sets xbase, xserver, xcomp to arch/pmax/md.h.
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.
