We had to give up DDB and grep this time...
Add a hint in "config" on how to increase the image size so
we can stuff more things in the image (mostly for use on a CDROM).
directories when writing to disk.
Use the (yet to be committed) sysctl variable kern.bootdevname
to derive the device name, fallback to /dev/fd0 if kern.bootdevname
is unset or not available.
closer to doing "the right thing".
The structure is now the following:
* /etc/rc (from MFS) loads the rest of /etc and /root from
/fd and then from floppy (if present), then transfers control
to /etc/rc1
* /etc/rc1 loads defaults from /etc/rc.conf.defaults, tries to
set the hostname basing on the MAC address of the first ethernet
interface, and then sources /etc/rc.conf and /etc/rc.conf.local
for local configurations
* The rest of the startup process is then performed (rc.network and so on).
Everything except the initial /etc/rc (from MFS) can be overridden with
a local version loaded from floppy. But in most cases, you should only need
to customize the following files in /etc:
rc.conf rc.firewall hosts
Previously there were a number of inconsistencies in the calling
between files, and also a lot of clutter in rc.conf and rc.firewall.
Also, "rc1" was called "rc" and would overwrite the initial /etc/rc
from MFS, making it really hard to figure out what was going on in
case of bugs.
+ fix some dialog entries to correctly modify variables instead of working
in a subshell
+ add a logverbose function for debugging purposes
+ force 512/4096 blocks on filesystems
+ use 'auto' for disklabel so it works irrespective of the floppy size.
This is useful for larger images than 1720k
and disable telnet and friends in favour of ssh/sshd/scp.
Pull out a few NIC drivers from the config file to make the
image fit into a 1.44 image again. I have left "lnc" in as that is
emulated by vmware so this can be booted there.
"top" does (thinking of it, i could have as well used the same format line!)
This only makes sense when "-w" option is also specified, because the
load is computed as the difference between subsequent samples.
I think this (and the "-d" feature which shows differences in the
network statistics counts) would also make sense in the standard
vmstat and netstat.
only once into an array of shell variables, and then scan the array
to find entries matching the MAC address.
Associative arrays would really be handy here...
of the default ones (which could be incorrect when doing cross builds).
Also, try to be backward compatible when compiling wmk (the goal being
able to use the most recent "picobsd" script on a wide range of
source trees).
refuses to start if it does not find a matching entry for the terminal
type.
My impression is that this is a problem in the shell, because
at least on PicoBSD images, the shell itself coredumps.
Anyways, this is the quickest fix i can come up with.
