0b381bf1fd Remove vestiges of MFS. 2001-06-01 10:07:28 +00:00
Brian S. Dean
44e0389495 * Simplify the population of the /etc memory filesystem. To avoid
the null mount, we currently create a temporary mfs on /tmp, copy
    /etc to /tmp, then mount /etc as mfs and copy everything back from
    /tmp, then delete the /tmp mfs.

    The patch eliminates the temporary /tmp mfs and the subsequent
    copying and simply populates the /etc mfs by copying from
    /conf/default/etc.  This requires that /conf/default/etc contain a
    complete copy of all the /etc stuff instead of just overrides.  I
    don't think that is too much of an extra step in setting up a
    diskless environment.

  * Provide the ability to make /tmp a memory filesystem independent
    of /var.  This removes the requirement that /tmp be a symlink to
    /var/tmp and this makes the diskless code work with the default
    filesystem layout.  If a seperate /tmp memory filesystem is
    created, the 'tmpsize' environment variable is used to determine
    its size (default to 10 Meg).

  * Reduce diffs between the -current and -stable versions of these
    files to a bare minimum.  Only the definition of the shell
    function 'mount_md' is different.

92fa92b327 Don't mount a md(4) over /dev on DEVFS enabled diskless systems. 2001-05-01 20:13:59 +00:00

9f474ffc5c Move to using md.
o create a simple wrapper function mount_md that makes it easy to
  move from mount_mfs.

# NOTE: you will need to MAKEDEV md[0123] in order for this to work.

c23b0b247d MFS: the MFS still applies to -current until such time as someone fixes
rc.diskless2 to use mdconfig rather than mount_mfs.  These changes are
still relevant to -current.

a1c43e3fbb Add copyright notices. Other systems have been barrowing our /etc files
w/o giving any credit.

f66e7afa28 Add to defaults/rc.conf a new function source_rc_confs which rc
scripts may use to source safely overrides in ${rc_conf_files}
files.

This protects users who insist on the bad practice of copying
/etc/defaults/rc.conf to /etc/rc.conf from a recursive loop
that exhausts available file descriptors.

Several people have expressed interest in breaking this function
out into its own shell script.  Anyone who wants to embark on
such an undertaking would do well to study the attributed PR.

4f9b3f5f33 Cleanup diskless support in current, mostly aligning it to the one
in the 3.x branch. Also remove the dependency on /usr to find the
boot address/interface.

321704296f Apply a consistent style to most of the etc scripts. Particularly, use
case instead of test where appropriate, since case allows case is a sh
builtin and (as a side-effect) allows case-insensitivity.

Changes discussed on freebsd-hackers.

9c63624e6f Use /etc/defaults/rc.conf everywhere, falling back to /etc/rc.conf
as necessary (for half-assed upgrades).

e4715b9359 Revamp rc.diskless. Split into rc.diskless1 and rc.diskless2. provide
more opportunities for overriding.  Clean up /etc/rc ( remove conf_dir,
    remove startup mount special cases, remove other special cases )
