Remove the old nextboot from Whistler. AFAIK this hasn't been useable in
quite a while and only works on i386.

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Fx
|
||||
program
|
||||
.Nm
|
||||
controls the actions of the boot blocks at the time of the next boot.
|
||||
If compiled with the correct option,
|
||||
the boot blocks will check the nameblock for a magic number and a
|
||||
default name to use for booting.
|
||||
If compiled to do so they will also
|
||||
delete the name from the block, ensuring that if the boot should fail,
|
||||
then it will not be tried again.
|
||||
It is the job of
|
||||
.Pa /etc/rc
|
||||
to use
|
||||
.Nm
|
||||
to re-install the string if that boot is found to have succeeded.
|
||||
This allows a one-time only boot string to be used for such applications
|
||||
as remote debugging, and installation of new, untrusted kernels.
|
||||
The nameblock is defined at compile time to be the second physical block
|
||||
on the disk.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The following options are available:
|
||||
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
||||
.It Fl b
|
||||
Is used for bootstrapping (initially configuring) the nameblock.
|
||||
Without
|
||||
this,
|
||||
.Nm
|
||||
will refuse to write to a block that does not already contain the magic
|
||||
number.
|
||||
.It Fl d
|
||||
Disable (temporarily) an existing name block by changing a bit
|
||||
in the magic number.
|
||||
.It Fl e
|
||||
Restore the good magic number on a block disabled by
|
||||
.Fl d .
|
||||
.El
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Fl e
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Fl d
|
||||
flags are mutually exclusive.
|
||||
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||||
.Nm Nextboot
|
||||
first checks that the disk has an fdisk table and checks that none of the
|
||||
partitions defined in that table include the nameblock.
|
||||
If the name block is
|
||||
shown to be unused, it will install the bootstrings given as arguments,
|
||||
one after the other, each preceded by a small magic number, and NULL
|
||||
terminated.
|
||||
The end of the list of strings is delimited by a sequence of
|
||||
0xff bytes.
|
||||
If the boot blocks are compiled to write back the nameblock
|
||||
after each boot, it will zero out the supplied names as it uses them,
|
||||
one per boot,
|
||||
until it reaches the 0xff, at which time it will revert to the compiled in
|
||||
boot string.
|
||||
At this time the nameblock will contain only zeroed out names.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
An example of usage might be:
|
||||
.Bd -literal
|
||||
nextboot -b /dev/rwd0 1:sd(0,a)/boot/kernel/kernel.experimental \\
|
||||
wd(0,a)/boot/kernel.old/kernel
|
||||
.Ed
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
Which would instruct the boot blocks at the next boot,
|
||||
to try boot the experimental kernel off the SCSI disk.
|
||||
If for any reason this failed, the next boot attempt would
|
||||
boot the kernel
|
||||
.Pa /boot/kernel.old/kernel
|
||||
off the IDE drive. (Assuming the write-back option were enabled) If this
|
||||
in turn failed.
|
||||
The compiled in default would be used.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
If the write-back feature is disabled, the nextboot program is a convenient way
|
||||
to change the default boot string.
|
||||
Note, that should the file specified in
|
||||
the nameblock be non-existent, then the name compiled into the boot blocks
|
||||
will be used for the boot rather than the next name in the nameblock.
|
||||
The
|
||||
nameblock is only consulted
|
||||
.Em once
|
||||
per boot.
|
||||

||||
.Xr boot 8 ,
|
||||
.Xr disklabel 8 ,
|
||||
.Xr fdisk 8
|
||||
.Sh BUGS
|
||||
This program works only in conjunction with the legacy boot code.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The entire program should be made more user-friendly.
|
||||
The option of whether to write back or not should be stored on the
|
||||
disk and not a compile time option.
|
||||
I want to rethink this at some
|
||||
later stage to make it co-exist with disks that do not have
|
||||
a fdisk partitioning table (i.e. purely disklabel'd systems).
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
Whether to write back or not should be specified at run-time in the nameblock
|
||||
so that the boot blocks need not be altered to get this feature.
