complaints and suggestions about this over the last few days that I
cannot remember who has said what anymore. :-(
There is also a comment here about the intent of the process and another
explicit pointer to the etc/etc/rc change to that has been ignored by
quite a few people it seems.
stuff and detection for the "gnumalloc" port which doesn't exist and
nobody has cared enough about for the past 6 months or so to implement.
As has been pointed out to me (quite a few times) in email, the people
that had been bitten by the changes had failed to follow the instructions
about updating /etc/rc.
Bruce also pointed out that after my last commit, it was no longer
removing /usr/lib/libgnumalloc.so.2.0 as it should have been.
Hopefully this (and the comments in the Makefile) should defuse the problem
a bit.
since we don't have it yet and I've taken too long on the libg++-2.7.2
stuff (it causes problems due to to the lack of .weak support which I've
nearly finished)

and use /dev/console.
I really think the proper test is to determine which device has been configured
to be the console (remember the RB_SERIAL flag?) and use it instead of always
trying to open /dev/ttyv0 first.
and the user inserts a floppy), read the config file to pre-define variables
for a custom installation.
[Note: I fixed one bug in LOAD_CONFIG_FILE code, but it's still not perfect.]
pick up the old CVSROOT if we don't have the environment variable set.
If /usr/src/release/install.cfg is present, put it out onto
the root filesystem of the boot floppy. It may optionally be
used to pre-configure sysinstall with custom values. (See next
batch of commits).
in order to create sparse directory files that caused a panic of a
filesystem where fsck would not find anything. A fix for fsck is in the
make but still has to be reviewed by Kirk McKusick.
not halt on error. Thanks to Wolfram for reminding me. ;)
Also remove a unnecessary test for c == '\n', since the
loop (in ParseSkipLine) will not terminate unless
c == '\n' || c == EOF, and the EOF case is already
explicted handled by a return statement.
comparisons in the inb() and outb() macros. I decided that int args
are OK here. Any type that can hold a u_int16_t without overflow
is correct, and 32-bit types are optimal.
Introduced a few tens of warnings (100 in LINT) for use of pessimized
(short) types for the port arg. Only a few drivers are affected by
this. u_short pessimizations aren't detected.
Added `__extension__' before the statement-expression in inb() so
that it can be compiled without warnings by gcc -pedantic.
- Change the debug flag from -d to -D to avoid conflict with other
install programs.
- Update man page to reflect this
- Update usage string
-d meaning creat directory is specifically not implemented by these changes.
Various neat features added. More documentation in the manpage.
If your machine has very little RAM, I guess that would be < 16M
these days :-(, you may want to try this:
ln -fs 'H<' /etc/malloc.conf
check the manpage.

While I'm here, add "${DIST_SUBDIR}/" at end of CDROM pathnames. Also
add an empty declaration of PATCH_SITES next to MASTER_SITES to avoid
"variable recursive" error.
be used for C, C++ and assembler sources if <bsd.prog.mk> is
included. It was used for general files. This caused the __depend_*
lists in <bsd.dep.mk> to be empty, so mkdep was never run, so
.depend never existed, so it was always out of date, so `rm -f
.depend' was always executed to update it.
ring that caused wrong things to happen sometimes.
Doubled the number of transmit descriptors to 128 so that the internal
FIFO in the NIC can be fully filled when dealing with small packets.
Several minor performance improvements.
