contained in the DHCP offer, and write it out to the lease file as an unquoted value of the "next-server" keyword. The value is ignored when the lease is read back by dhclient, however other applications are free to parse it. The intent behind this change is to allow easier interoperability with automated installation systems e.g. Cobbler, Foreman, Razor; FreeBSD installation kernels can automatically probe the network to discover deployment servers. There are no plans to MFC this change unless a backport is specifically requested. The syntax of the "next-server <ip>" lease keyword is intended to be identical to that used by the ISC DHCPD server in its configuration files. The required defines are already present in dhclient but were unused before this change. (Note: This is NOT the same as Option 66, tftp-server-name). It has been exercised in a university protocol testbed environment, with Cobbler and an mfsBSD image containing pc-sysinstall (driven by Cobbler Cheetah templates). The SYSLINUX memdisk driver is used to boot mfsBSD. Currently this approach requires that a dedicated system profile has been created for the node where FreeBSD is to be deployed. If this is not present, the pc-sysinstall wrapper will be unable to obtain a node configuration. There is code in progress to allow mfsBSD images to obtain the required hints from the memdisk environment by parsing the MBFT ACPI chunk. This is non-standard as it is not linked into the platform's ACPI RSDT. Reviewed by: des |

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
