Include bteasy, bootsd, sdboot and termcap entries using file2.c
Remove all traces of "termcap.small".
The policy in this program regarding termcap is:
| If $TERM is set
| do nothing special, rely on usual termcap.
| else
| use compiled in (via file2c) termcap entries
Could do with some cosmetic tuning regarding placement and things.
Fixed some dialog code (from Andrew).
Pass mountpoints onto stage2 in a struct fstab *mounts[]
Fix all the field connections to conform to the new L&F document.
have to write the text-file it will dump on you.
Stopped using cleartoeol in AskEm(), just as a test to see if the screen
looks more sane.
Added a attempted auto-recognition of /, swap and /usr for the first disk
where it looks sensible. Logic of this might need to be improved.
Made a "ShowFile()" which will not bomb/ignore you if the file isn't there.
Make a stab at getting free space display to work.
Forward decls to shut compiler warnings up.
Increase some fields to width 2 in order to get edit_line to let you
actually edit them.
Sanity check values and yell at bonehead users.
Try to reformat this code to be a little more human. Weird europeans
have been writing this, and can't even seem to agree a single coding
style for more than 4 consecutive lines! :-)
I have walked all over Paul Richards code again, and severely lobotomized
some of his stuff, in order to cut some corners for the 2.0-Alpha release.
I belive that we can now manipulate fdisk and disklabel-stuff sufficiently
for the release to actually be produced.
It's not that I don't like Paul and his code, I just need something I
can kick out of the door RSN.
Sysinstall is now under absolute code-freeze, only Jordan has my permission
to commit to this code (stage0 & 5). I would appreciate if everybody
else would finds problems in sysinstall send patches to me, and I will
commit them. THANKYOU.
The fdisk/disklabel editors are made in pure ncurses, and follow a model
"a`la spreadsheet".
There are some important functions which are missing still, and I would
appreciate if somebody would look at them.
The FDISK part needs a "whole-disk" option, and it needs a "rewrite
MBR-boot code" option.
The DISKLABEL part needs to be able to "import DOS-partition".
Both need a "HELP" function, (display a file "/HELP" using dialog is OK).
It seems to me like the wd.c and sd.c should reread the physical record
when a DIOCGDINFO is made, so that they can pick up changes in the
MBR-data. Otherwise there will be a couple of weird cases where we
cannot avoid replicating code from the kernel.
If you want to play with this, look at src/release/Makefile. You may need
to step back to version 1.38 of sys/i386/isa/fd.c to make "rootable"
floppies, it is not clear at this time if that indeed is the problem I
have been having.
Sleep well, my friends, and expect the real Alpha in 24H, if the tree is
still solid.
Removed a dialog_clear() which somebody aimlessly had slammed into TellEm()
in absence of any understanding of the structure of this program. :-(
Skip through stage0 for now.
Make write_bootblocks write the disklabel using the kernel-call, and forget
about the boot-blocks for now. This is wrong, but I havn't found the real
problem yet. I will continue work on this problem.
Added a Debug-feature. There is a printf' like Debug() now which sends its
output to ttyv1 (Alt-F2), and all "discarded output" from sub-processes end
up there too. Made TellEm() put it's messages there also, so that we can
see where what happens.
Set the PATH for the shell we shouldn't start at the end :-)
set "npartitions" after the disklabel-editor returns, so that we actually
can edit all the 8 parts of the label.
All the mbr code now seems to be working. We can build a basic
unix disklabel in any existing DOS partition while retaining the
existing mbr bootcode or we can install to the whole disk which
puts FreeBSD's boot code into the MBR and creates a clean MBR
partition table with FreeBSD in partition 0 taking up the whole disk.
Re-organised files, moved bootcode routines into their own files.
Check return types of everything and pass error messages to
windows so we get good diagnostics.
Made start on stage 2 installation. Implemented a status file that
keeeps track of where we are in the installation process and allows
installation from media sequences.
