using make instead of custom scripts) and two floppies instead of
one. The resultant floppy can do everything that the individual
floppies (dial, net, install, isp, router) could do, modulo some bit
rot that has occurred since PicoBSD last compiled. It also includes
all the programs on the fixit floppy, which could thus also die.
/bin currently contains the following files:
-sh dump ln ns sps
[ ed login ping stty
badsect ex ls ps swapon
cat expr mkdir pwd sync
chgrp fdisk mknod pwd_mkdb sysctl
chmod find more rdump syslogd
chown fsck mount reboot tar
chroot ftp mount_cd9660 restore telnet
clri getty mount_msdos rlogin telnetd
cp grep mount_nfs rm test
date gunzip mount_std rmdir traceroute
dd gzip msg route umount
dev_mkdb hostname mt routed vi
df ifconfig mv rrestore view
dhclient inetd natd rsh vm
dhclient-script init netstat sed w
disklabel kget newfs sh zcat
dmesg kill nfs sleep
Structure is in place for using the same build for the other
directories, but I'm no longer sure we need this. The current first
floppy will run fine by itself, but the size of a compressed kernel
has increased by nearly 50% since 3.2, and there's not much space for
anything useful on the remainder of the floppy. The current method
creates a larger mfs and can read as many floppies as the user can
stand. The footprint appears to be round 14 MB.

slice, partition, newfs, and install FreeBSD from a tarball on a remote server.
Handy for doing mass-installs for server farms.
Documentation following shortly.
. Now builds on -STABLE (-CURRENT is broken due to bugs)
. etc directory contents centralized instead of in each
type directory (can exclude & override as desired)
. Removed extraneous language files (lang files for rc really necessary?)
. dialog-based build tool with support for custom floppy builds
. MFS image loads as a mfs_root module instead of compiled into kernel
THIS IS BROKEN ON CURRENT. I'll MFC to -STABLE immediately following.
luigi tells me I have an OK from jkh on the MFC.
