Usually the unreadable part will be swap, but remove it from root even
if swap is not selected.
The user can always put it back on the next screen.
Saves sysinst allocating /usr when the bios geometry excludes the last
few MB of the disk (32 on one disk I have).
Move info about cylinders to the 'ask for units' menu.
(translations need checking, done by cutting sentences)
Stop i386 always asking for units.
Use BIOS cylinders for MBR and disk cylinders for the disklabel.
(code intended to do this, but got it wrong...)
Mark some menus as 'sub menu' or MC_SUBMENU so that the screen underneath
is saved.
Add GENERIC.MPACPI to i386 menu.
a single function, the latter is now the return value of get_ramsize().
Changed all uses of rammb to get_ramsize().
Used the 64bit HW_PHYSMEM64 so silly things don't happen if the memory size
approaches (or even exceeds) 4GB.
- Rename run_prog() to run_program() and remove the 'errmsg' argument (almost
never used).
- Be consistent about #define<space> in defs.h
- Allow BSDFFS partitions to be FFSv1 or FFSv2 (fixes PR install/23547)
- i386: install correct bootblocks for root filesystem type.
- Do 'fsck -p' before all mounts (but never a full fsck), rename fsck_xxx()
to mount_xxx() and remove some wrapper functions.
- Allow root to be an APPLEUFS partition - and allow them to be newfsed,
should fix PR install/23198
- Redo fstab processing for upgrade to avoid large static data items and
memory leaks. Change walk() to abort on user defined error.
(the fstab stuff really needs more work though...)
- i386: 'Warp' cursor to alternate option when selecting console/bootblocks,
should fix PR port-i386/23546.
- Allow MENU_ok and MENU_yesno to take user defined title.
- Ensure that mountpoint not defined for swap (and similar issues) when
editing netbsd label.
- Tweaks to error handling in run_program(), allow user to say that errors
are expected or that the display shouldn't be cleared before returning.
- Remove some old code that has been festering under #if 0
- rework run_prog() so that the program name (etc) is usually displayed if
the program generates any output, or terminates with an error.
Allow arguments to included in single quotes.
Try to collect console output so it doesn't interfere with curses.
- Add a '*' to the cylinder count if non-integral number of cylinders
(on disklabel editor)
- Only show partition type for unused partitions.
- Show size including unused space on '+' partition, remove a..z since
the don't relate to partition IDs (netbsd partition sizes)
- Fix deleting of 'user' partitions - killed size of next ptn.
- Don't default a swap partition is the disk already has one.
- Fix deleting of extended MBR partitions - changed size of ptn 2.
- Show error message if user tries something illegal in mbr editor.
- Default to old diskname (actually disk type - dunno why!)
- Use MI enable_rc_conf() to set RC_CONFIGURED=YES, use a single sed
command instead of a raft of code playing with files etc.
- Float some menus to just below header text, saves counting and lets
language variants have different height headers (use y=-1)
- Track whether anything is mounted on /mnt2 better.
- Put more texts into message file.
- Change english prose texts to be more correct.
- Stop french and polish versions core dumping if ptn start/size changed.
- Fix processing logic for saving /etc (action is still borked)
- Do tail-end setup if any sets (eg X) can't be found (but not if you give
in (yet)).
Add menu for all disklabel partition types.
Default 'partition type' and 'sizechoice' menus to current value.
Change 'standard/use existing' to 'set sizes/use existing'.
Remove pointless 'len' parameter from read_mbr and write_mbr.
Make read_mbr initialise mbr if it can't be read (delete MD code).
Make i386 always ask at least once about the bootcode.
Move LIB_MOVE and LIB_COUNT from md.h to aout2elf.c
4 times system memory). (These numbers need moving to a different menu still.)
Remove size of /usr from default sized / when /usr created.
Shrink swap in order to get partitions into available disk space.
Add twice ram size to / if space available (for system dumps).
Keep all but last partition cylinder aligned when the disk isn't a whole
number of cylinders.
Hack to give free space to a default sized /usr
Add extra space to / and /usr is any of the X sets are included.
Remove last reference to 'layoutkind == 3'.
Fix menu size so that user defined partitions can be allocated instead of
standard ones (need > MAXPARTITIONS entries in menu).
Make partition size info static - with a view to including it in a longer loop.
This does change the default size of /, but I'm going to rewrite
make_bsd_partitions next to make it less user-hostile.
(I'm not sure adding in 2 * ram is actually useful! Especially size it left
/usr with a -ve size on all my test installs with 256MB ram and 1GB disk)
Make bootsel code delete menu names if the partition is unused.
Use raw device for cdrom access (I've a kernel that doesn't report an invalid
label so /dev/cd0a dosn't work).
- make_bsd_partitions() correctly handles PART_BOOT
- use bsddisklabel.c for pc532 and sgimips (this does change the default size
for the root partition, as it no longer includes twice the memory size).
- Change way ports define disk_names[] (in particular this lets me add "vnd"
for testing), also ensures all ports pick up new drivers.
I've make most ports use the default "wd", "sd", "ld".
Abort the search for disk units if we get ENOENT (ie no /dev entry) to
speed up the case where we are looking for a disk type that isn't
supprted by the port.
(it is possible we could just check all possible disks on all ports...)
left consistently.
Make the i386 install let you partition a disk beyond the CHS limit if the
system bios doesn't support LBA reads (the checks aren't ideal yet).
Make the bsddislabel.c code usable onan i386 system - but don't use it yet.
and some sparc64 fixes. details:
- new scripting_{,v}fprintf() that also write to the script log (if open).
- support of creation of LFS filesystems
- standard installs now allow one to choose which file systems to create,
out of the list of /usr, /var, /home, MFS /tmp, and swap. a / is always
created, but the rest all optional. [*]
- new disklabel method: use existing. this requires one to fill in the
mount points (and having at least a "/" is enforced).
- preservation of existing filesystems (at install) is supported.
- rewrote most of make_fstab(): the entire thing is generated from the
bsdlabel now, rather than hard coding / to 'a' and swap to 'b'. create
MFS /tmp if requested.
- if IPv6 support isn't present, don't display any ipv6 messages.
- better rc.conf support
- sparc & sparc64 default to "cylinders" now.
- choosing "standard" instead of "standard with X" de-selects the X pkgs
by default.
- sparc64: don't install bootblocks until we have a complete system, avoids
booting with no /dev/console.
- sparc64: bump STDNEEDMB, it is way low.
[*] i have added default values for DEFVARSIZE & DEFUSRSIZE (this is used
only if /usr and /home are selected) to each port, based on STDNEEDMB. as
such, my guesses might be wrong so port maintainers should look at these.
orts. Since port specific information is in appropriate arch/.../md.h
bsddisklabel.c is currently #included by arch/.../md.c.
I'm not totally happy about this, but my concience is somewhat salved by the
overall reduction in breakage.
Initially only pmax, sparc, vax and x68k are using bsddisklabel.c.
While I'm here adjust defs.h for more than eight partitions in a generic
fashion.
