9e2594ff29 Some preliminary updates to the release notes, just as I think of
them.  By no means a comprehensive list of all the things which should
eventually go in here before 3.0-RELEASE, nor are the CAM issues
reflected here yet.

dac9272725 Go back to using MSDOSFS instead of Robert Nordier's stand-alone DOS
library.  I have to include MSDOSFS on the boot floppy anyway (so I can
read DOS floppies in a few other contexts) and since both -stable and
-current MSDOSFS handle long filenames, I'm OK on that now.  Should
save about 10K of space.

9b6f1a185f Make Mitsumi and Sony CDROM devs also use the `a' device. I think

for the matcd device in PR#6576
1998-05-11 00:47:27 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard
92be7163cc It was incorrect to use the `c' device for the matcd driver;
apparently, unlike the IDE or SCSI CDROM drivers, this is magically
special-cased for audio CDs.  This also might explain what happened
with scd (Sony) CDs also since I made the same change there.  A follow-up
commit will fix that. Thanks, Dave!

2. Don't create slice entries when running multi-user; it adds far too

   slice entries after system is installed.

59617ad4b8 Totally change the way that devices are made in the MFS and subsequently
probed in sysinstall.  Rather than make template devices and use up lots
of inodes, also restricting the number of devices that can be dealt with,
mknod all necessary devices as necessary using built-in information.
This removes a number of constraints on the number and type of devices
that sysinstall can see.

86ff624834 Make some changes to the way the label editor reads script variables
so you don't need to re-enter it for each and every filesystem. Heads up!
This change is incompatible with the previous scripting format,
so those folks (all 2 of you) using config files should take a look
at the changes to the sample install.cfg file for the diskLabelEditor's
new calling syntax.

Finally write a man page for this thing, documenting all of the above
and more.  I can't drive a stake through this thing's heart without
properly documenting it first, so please consider this step #1 in that
process (to be honest, sysinstall will also live on for some time in
the 2.2. branch since it's unlikely that the new install tools will ever
make it over there - they're strictly 3.0 material).

5028762fea Eliminate Samba configuration. Sorry, but this was another one of
those ideas that, like the Apache server setup, was well-intentioned
but doomed to fail in the face of change.  That and the fact that it
shouldn't be part of the installation tool, it should be part of the
post-installation setup tool (which we need to write).  Combining the
two utilities into one utility was my first conceptual mistake.

Apologies also to Coranth Gryphon, who worked hard on the Apache
and Samba server setup code.  These features were quite useful
for awhile, if that's any consolation, I just simply had the wrong
ideas about where to put them. :-(
