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.
to explicitly version syspkgs. See discussion on source-changes@netbsd.org.
If we want to lose this functionality, we should discuss this on the appropriate
lists...
file entries from the syspkg hierarchy, brought up to date to include some
that had been missed out.
Add the descrs file, which is a single file containing all the DESCR
file entries from the syspkg hierarchy, brought up to date to include some
that had been missed out.
Thanks to Jim Wise for all the work that went into the syspkg sets.
Add the attrs file, which is a single file to which can be added
attributes (like preserve).
Add a regpkg script, which allows a single system package to be
registered, based simply on its setname and syspkg name. All the
information is gleaned from the lists files by means of scripts, no
source tree is needed. The version number for the system package is
calculated automatically, based on the most recent mtime of the files
that constitute a system package.
Add a regpkgset script, to register all the system packages in a set.
The set names recognised are "all", "base", "comp", "etc", "games",
"man", "misc", "text".
and also bring up to date the ELF vs a.out knowledge.
Also, sort the directories into reverse alphabetical order, and add them to
the generated PLIST file after any file entries.
Grab the comments into a single file from the individual syspkg set entries.
Grab the descriptions into a single file from the individual syspkg set entries.
Add an attributes file to which can be added attributes for system packages.
The "preserve" attribute has been implemented.
Add extra comments and descriptions for system packages which were missing.
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'.
I've also made the set selection happen first. This lets me test it!
also measn the selected sets could be used in the disk partition code.
Removed the 'with X' disk layout question (now too late to change the sets).
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.
Update lists for ramdisks to include the required files.
NB /usr/sbin/installboot is not used by sysinst and is only in ramdisk-big.
Increase the sizes of the ramdisks, there is plenty of space in all the
boot floppies except rescue-tiny (2k) and boot-tiny (32k).
PowerBase is actually Open Firmware 2.0.x
add iBook (16VRAM) and iBook (Summer2002) as supported models
mention next release of NetBSD will support multiple CPUs
mention that some L3 caches on CPU upgrades may not be enabled by default
PowerMacintosh G4 (FW 800) model is reported to work with 1.6.1
macppc uses gem driver instead of gm ethernet driver now
macppc uses tlp driver instead of de ethernet driver now
AirPort Extreme is unsupported
full wscons capabilities not supported (virtual terminals and color)
keyboard problems with iMac and B&W G3 seem to have been cleared up
fix links to newly updated Partitioning HOW-TO and mention use of pdisk
can't view files on official ISO image or floppy from Open Firmware
keyboard problems with iMac and B&W G3 seem to have been cleared up
fix links to newly updated Partitioning HOW-TO
OF 3 firmware update 4.1.7, mention that it's not much of a problem anymore
point to ZTerm home page
redo partitioning section
update now that there's a pair of boot floppies
change MS-DOS floppy section to be Zip disk
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.
Use strlcpy() instead of strncpy() where appropriate.
Recode timezone menu so that it can stand opt_name being const char *
and to only do the fts_read() once (there were problems if the filestore
changed between passes!).
Remove stupid check for errno != 0 which probably stopped the tomezone
menu being displayed!
