1.3.4 - 02/08/2002
|
|
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Updated to 2.4.17-10um and added Jeff's initrd fix.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Updated to 20020125 uml tools.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The rpmized gbootroot package requires perl-Expect which in turn requires
|
|
|
|
perl-IO-Tty and perl-IO-Stty. A search on the Net revealed that the existing
|
|
|
|
rpms out there are either outdated, don't have their dependencies set-up
|
|
|
|
properly, or require a particular version of the perl5 series.
|
|
|
|
I made these rpms so they work on any i386 architecture which is using the
|
|
|
|
perl5 series. This includes 5.6.0 and 5.6.1 which are in common use on most
|
|
|
|
major distributions as of the year 2002. If you have a problem with the
|
|
|
|
automated Linux virtual machine which appears related to these modules, please
|
|
|
|
don't hesitate to contact me. They are available at
|
|
|
|
prdownloads.sourceforge.net/gbootroot.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Created rpms for Mandrake type dists, and Red Hat type dists.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Added vc/? and vcs? to the etc/securetty files because the new uml kernel uses
|
|
|
|
these now.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixed the fhs situation again. This time it will definitely work. As I wrote
|
|
|
|
in the code: "I always thought the BEGIN statements were executed before
|
|
|
|
everything else, but I have discovered that in this case it has to be placed
|
|
|
|
before the use statements if exec /usr/bin/gbootroot is done via $PATH ..
|
|
|
|
I guess that makes sense because $PATH is established in this particular
|
|
|
|
BEGIN." Other executables have been fixed including expect_uml and
|
|
|
|
yard_chrooted_tests.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Improved Replacements Box GUI.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Added a button to open up the Filesystem Box from the ARS, this is on the same
|
|
|
|
line as Filesystem Size.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.3.3 - 01/15/2002
|
|
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
During the boot stage the filsystem type was used to determine whether
|
|
|
|
to use the genext2fs (non-root) method or the normal method used by root.
|
|
|
|
Now the user type is used, this is better because it prevents conflicts
|
|
|
|
if a different filesystem type is chosen, or if a non-root user changes to a
|
|
|
|
different filesystem type in the filesystem box and forgets to change back
|
|
|
|
to genext2fs; however, it prevents root from using the genext2fs method,
|
|
|
|
which isn't a problem. The sudo requirement for lilo is too much of a
|
|
|
|
requirement, and will be changed in future versions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixed another non-root boot/root bug. The info had it correct, but the actual
|
|
|
|
copy with genext2fs was being done from the wrong location. This has been
|
|
|
|
fixed. This method may be ditched for a far better one in the near future.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Had some testing code which was providing the wrong value for $compress, this
|
|
|
|
made non-root booting fail for bzip2 because bunzip2 didn't exist in the
|
|
|
|
initrd.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Added another technique in the FAQ to show how space can be saved on the
|
|
|
|
root_fs by using the libraries from the initrd. Liav instigated this by
|
|
|
|
asking a question related to FAQ question 14, "So if I understand correctly,
|
|
|
|
it is not possible to copy libc from /dev/ram0 to /dev/ram1 before mounting
|
|
|
|
/dev/ram1 as / ?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Liav pointed out how Yard can make boot/root floppies with a compressed root
|
|
|
|
filesystem. Edited FAQ question 13 to correctly reflect how gz compressed
|
|
|
|
root filesystems may be booted without an initrd.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
State is saved for the Compression off check box and the Root Filename save
|
|
|
|
check box.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The UML Kernel entry box in the ARS remembers state now.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changed the behavior of save_as so that when compression is chosen, the
|
|
|
|
entry won't be the same as that found in Root Filename, but instead reflects
|
|
|
|
the newly compressed file. This change was precipitated by the previous
|
|
|
|
change to the Accept behavior.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.3.2 - 01/11/2002
|
|
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Updated linux and modules to 2.4.17-4um. Made jffs and jffs2 part of the
|
|
|
|
kernel, and had to comment out the get_mtd_device function call in jffs_fm.c
|
|
|
|
and super.c to accomplish this. Looking forward to more support from the uml
|
|
|
|
project for mtd devices.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Updated to the 20020104 uml tools, this includes port-helper which is the new
|
|
|
|
helper for allowing uml devices to be attached to a specified host port.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changed the behavior of the Accept button so that when compression is chosen
|
|
|
|
(gzip or bz2) the Root Filename remains the same as before. This is nice
|
|
|
|
because the fs can be remade with the same name and re-compressed, rather then
|
|
|
|
appending gz or bz2 to the name. Before if the user forget to
|
|
|
|
delete the ending this would happen: root_fs.bz2.bz2.bz2
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changed shells for root and user to /bin/sh in passwd-debian, passwd.debian
|
|
|
|
and passwd.example. This is a better idea, and assumes sh links to a user
|
|
|
|
defined shell, so if the shell is changed the password files don't have to be.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Added several new questions to the FAQ, thanks to Liav.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Liav Asseraf <liav_a@yahoo.com> points out a problem in 1.3.1. I reply to
|
|
|
|
him with this answer: "Indeed, you have found a bug. Bootroot adheres to the
|
|
|
|
most recent Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (2.1); in previous bootroot versions
|
|
|
|
a big chunk of the source code was included in /usr/bin/gbootroot, but I
|
|
|
|
decided to reorganize and move most of that code to BootRoot/BootRoot.pm, in
|
|
|
|
the process I also moved a statement which executes before the rest of the
|
|
|
|
program does to set up a proper @INC. What this all means is that
|
|
|
|
gbootroot couldn't find the required modules." This bug has been fixed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Altered tooltip text for the Options entry to recognize that the umid needs
|
|
|
|
to be switched in the mconsole box in order for the new Linux virtual machine
|
|
|
|
to be controlled via the buttons and the mconsole. The behavior could be
|
|
|
|
changed to accomplish this automatically, but that wouldn't be consistent
|
|
|
|
with the behavior one would expect from the mconsole; anyways the documentation
|
|
|
|
already explains to use switch in the mconsole.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.3.1 - 12/25/2001
|
|
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Added a complete interface to the mconsole in the UML Box. Multiple options
|
|
|
|
can be entered at one time. Options include: switch so that the umid can be
|
|
|
|
changed to control a different Linux virtual machine, sysrq as in
|
|
|
|
Documentation/sysrq.txt, config and remove for devices (ubd?,eth?), reboot
|
|
|
|
and halt, version to find the version of the running uml kernel, and help.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Added both a Reboot and Halt button to the UML Box. Both of these buttons
|
|
|
|
have an interface to mconsole, and provide clean control of rebooting or
|
|
|
|
halting a Linux virtual machine. When they fail, Abort does all the clean-up,
|
|
|
|
but this should be used as a last resort. Both of these buttons initially
|
|
|
|
parse the Options entry for the first instance of umid
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Added a new stage button in the Yard Box called Copy. Create is now Copy, and
|
|
|
|
the uml_exclusively and genext2fs behavior are handled by Create, this is
|
|
|
|
much nicer because a new filsystem type can be created without having to wait
|
|
|
|
for everything to be copied again to the sources directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Updated the documentation and graphics to reflect the new changes, and provide
|
|
|
|
a new exercise.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the sources created from the template had a symlink in them from a previous
|
|
|
|
creation, you couldn't just press create again without symlink() complaining
|
|
|
|
(for instance, for genext2f and the new uml_exclusively). This has been fixed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Compiled 2.4.16-2um linux and modules to specification for root_fs_helper.
|
|
|
|
Makefile properly edited to copy over the config used. Ext2, cramfs, minix,
|
|
|
|
reiserfs, and romfs are built-in to the kernel.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Got rid of the complete lock-up when large files are compressed, ofcourse,
|
|
|
|
users won't want to try to compress more than one format at the same time,
|
|
|
|
because the logic will get skewed. In the future may make this OO. Added
|
|
|
|
some verbosity to tell when the process has begun and finished.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Established logic for Filesystem Box based on ownership. Defaults need to
|
|
|
|
be different dependending on the user. Normal users probably never will
|
|
|
|
want to preserve permissions, but they may want to toggle off UML
|
|
|
|
Exclusively to create different filesystem types when <= 8192 fs_size.
|
|
|
|
Root users may want to turn off Preserve Permissions to create a root only
|
|
|
|
filesystem, and the may want to toggle between creating root filesytems
|
|
|
|
via loop devices or UML to allow different filesystem types.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Added UML Exclusively and Preserve Permissions check boxes to the Filesystem
|
|
|
|
Box. Esc closes, changed table size, and layout, responds to return, and
|
|
|
|
submit button defaults.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Put Jeff Dikes UML.pm in BootRoot, and changed it to BootRoot::UML, added
|
|
|
|
one change to allow no password.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The auto-magic test for uClibc was only testing for busybox, this has been
|
|
|
|
fixed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.3.0 - 12/12/2001
|
|
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Added a README for users installing from the source package.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Removed the enforcement of the yard suffix rule for templates, because it
|
|
|
|
was never really documented; however, it is still a nice rule to follow
|
|
|
|
despite that it is not enforced anymore.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Added an archictecture-dependent replacements repository directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixed the freezing behavior for particularly large templates, like the ones
|
|
|
|
produced by make_debian, and make_debian-X11. However, overly large buffers
|
|
|
|
in the verbosity box still hog cpu in a big way. The best procedure for
|
|
|
|
now is to open and close the box between stages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Made the termcap check just a warning if terminfo or termcap don't exist,
|
|
|
|
If a terminfo directory is found, linux will need to exist or the test will
|
|
|
|
return error. This is better because the root filesystem can still work
|
|
|
|
if this information doesn't exist. A minority of gettys will fail if they
|
|
|
|
use termcap or terminfo, but this check was removed from the chrooted tests
|
|
|
|
several months ago for the reason just cited. Note: check_getty_type_call
|
|
|
|
was removed from Yard.pm, but exists in chrooted tests without the termcap
|
|
|
|
check. Also, added a close which was missing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Removed an unnecessary check from the fstab test, and improved a regexp
|
|
|
|
which was failing if tabs were used in the fstab.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
State is saved for all check buttons when the yard box is opened and
|
|
|
|
closed. Deciding whether to save state between invocations of gbootroot
|
|
|
|
via a file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Moved the Changelog from within gbootroot to a Changes file in
|
|
|
|
/usr/share/doc/gbootroot, because it is getting quite large.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Improved the sizing of the UML box.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Added New Template (Alt-N) capability to the Yard Box.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Added several new FAQ questions, added a lot more information on
|
|
|
|
"How do I use gBootRoot?" Updated the graphics for the documentation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Updated to version 2.4.16 of user-mode-linux.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Yard Box has new check buttons which allows the parsing behavior of
|
|
|
|
the nss and pam configuration files to be turned off and on (default).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Pam.conf and pam.d/{service names or *} can now be checked for their
|
|
|
|
specified service modules. The service modules are located either in
|
|
|
|
/lib/security or /usr/lib/security and included with the file set if they
|
|
|
|
are found on the host system. The modules are then checked for their
|
|
|
|
dependencies which are included if they haven't previously been specified.
|
|
|
|
Therefore, the user no longer needs to specify pam modules and dependencies
|
|
|
|
in the template if the pam parsing option in turned on.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Nsswitch.conf can now be checked for the service modules it specifies. The
|
|
|
|
service modules pertaining to the host systems libc6 are located and
|
|
|
|
automatically included. The modules are then checked for their
|
|
|
|
dependencies which are included if they haven't previously been specified.
|
|
|
|
Therefore, the user no longer needs to specify nss modules and dependencies
|
|
|
|
in the template if the pam parsing option in turned on.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ENV{RELEASE} is now initialized every time a check is run on the template.
|
|
|
|
Information can come from three sources, the kernel version returned from
|
|
|
|
a selected kernel in the main section, the user defined kernel version
|
|
|
|
in the ABS, or `uname -r`. User defined kernel version overrides the
|
|
|
|
kernel. The root_fs needs to be built in relation to the actual kernel
|
|
|
|
modules it will run on. Previously the $RELEASE value wasn't returned
|
|
|
|
properly because of some bugs in kernel_version_check. This has been fixed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The proper ldd check is now used if a dynamically linked binary is detected
|
|
|
|
to require uClibc rather than libc6. The ldd from the default location of
|
|
|
|
/usr/i386-linux-uclibc/bin is used for uClibc. The old behavior of
|
|
|
|
automatically including the default loader for the host system has
|
|
|
|
been removed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixed pam test so that the 3rd field rather than the 4th field is being
|
|
|
|
checked in the service-name files found in /etc/pam.d/. The 4th field is
|
|
|
|
acceptable for pam.conf. If a path is specified in either conf format,
|
|
|
|
that path will be checked, otherwise, either the pam default path of
|
|
|
|
/usr/lib/security or the FSSTD location /lib/security will be checked
|
|
|
|
for a match.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixed nss test so that it checks for the right libnss_(service).so.$version
|
|
|
|
if glibc 2.2 is used. Glibc 2.0 and 2.1 used 1 and 2 respectively, but 2.2
|
|
|
|
uses 2.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Experimental busybox and uClibc functionality included for boot_fs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Many improvements to the verbosity output.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Replacements path is set just once.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Path Box only allowed extra paths to be added before the first generation
|
|
|
|
of a root_fs creation, this was because the values weren't allowed to be
|
|
|
|
changed after they were defined. This has been fixed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Symlinks have been vastly improved. Fictional or real links can now be
|
|
|
|
specified, and links always follow the link -> (file | directory ) format
|
|
|
|
where either side can be existing dirs/files or fictional dirs/files on the
|
|
|
|
system.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All of Tom's templates have been replaced with new templates clearly
|
|
|
|
marked as Examples.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example.yard takes advantage of the automated NSS and PAM feature, and can
|
|
|
|
create a devfs or nondevfs root filesystem, and has many new replacements.
|
|
|
|
The inittabs reflect modern versions of dpkg, rpm, and slackware based
|
|
|
|
distributions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example-Mini.yard demonstrates the bare minimum required to create a
|
|
|
|
working root_fs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The documentation in the new templates has been improved
|
|
|
|
to respect the way gbootroot's Yard now works, since it has been greatly
|
|
|
|
modified from the original, and some old features deemed unnecessary have
|
|
|
|
been removed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Debian.yard example has had a name change to Example-Debian.yard,
|
|
|
|
and has additional documentation so the user understands its prerequisites.
|
|
|
|
The FAQ covers make_debian usage.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Chrooted tests in the Yard Box are disabled and removed when a non-root
|
|
|
|
user runs the box.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ARS and YardBox error handling is much better because $error has been made
|
|
|
|
private, before it was mostly global in YardBox.pm which meant an error
|
|
|
|
value remained ERROR even when the problem was fixed which caused the
|
|
|
|
YardBox to fail to work properly after certain errors.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When the ARS hadn't been opened yet, the program reported that the root
|
|
|
|
device hadn't been umounted yet, this was observed with genext2fs but was
|
|
|
|
certainly a global bug. This has been fixed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The majority of add-on replacements except for passwd*, shadow, and
|
|
|
|
ld.so.conf have a CVS Id and "make_debian replacement".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Original CVS information is now preserved so
|
|
|
|
that non-root users and root can't edit global replacements, the basic idea
|
|
|
|
is that root will usually be using an editor like Emacs in
|
|
|
|
$HOME/.gbootroot/yard/Replacements which respects that CVS versioned files
|
|
|
|
outside of the repository are read-only (essentially because the date has
|
|
|
|
changed). Users should make copies of versioned replacements which they
|
|
|
|
want to edit, for instance: fstab.debian-1000 Also, they shouldn't defeat
|
|
|
|
the mechanism by removing the CVS directories, although, only root has
|
|
|
|
write permissions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All replacements are now symlinks which is helpful to maintain static
|
|
|
|
information for add-ons, anotherwards, this allows the author to know that
|
|
|
|
all his replacements are updated in user workspaces when he releases a new
|
|
|
|
add-on. Because of this change symlinks will now be respected in the
|
|
|
|
Replacements directory since the file being pointed to will be used instead
|
|
|
|
of the actual link when constructing the root filesystem.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Non-root users may now create boot disks. Boot Loaders may required root
|
|
|
|
permissions for some methods, and the fstab may need to be edited, see FAQ.
|
|
|
|
And some /lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules may need to be given world read
|
|
|
|
permissions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A dialog box has been added which will pop up when the lilo stage has been
|
|
|
|
reached for a normal user, explaining the requirements, and what the user
|
|
|
|
can do next which is explained in detail in the FAQ.
|
|
|
|
|
|

Non-root users may now create root filesystems up to 8192k in size using
|
|
|
|
genext2fs. FAQ explains how to exceed this limit as a normal user.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Added sources.list replacement.
|
|
|

1.2.14 - 10/24/2001
|
|
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Append field in the ABS now saves state for non-root users. Before it only
|
|
|
|
remembered state if lilo.conf could actually be read, ofcourse, this wasn't
|
|
|
|
an option for non-root users. The beginnings of non-root boot and root_fs
|
|
|
|
creation capabilities have been put into place, but haven't been fully
|
|
|
|
implemented. The end result of this is that directories created in
|
|
|
|
$tmp are now static for non-root users and now use the userid number to
|
|
|
|
keep track of different non-root users.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The author of swim came out with a new version he now calls dswim. This
|
|
|
|
means Debian System Wide Information Manager, but the "d" could also stand
|
|
|
|
for different. Changes have been made to make_debian to facilitate this
|
|
|
|
much more stable version of swim, and better non-installed package checks
|
|
|
|
have been implemented in make_debian.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The control dependencies have been vastly improved, and reflect the change
|
|
|
|
from swim to dswim. Yard_chrooted_tests is now put in a gbootroot specific
|
|
|
|
directory since it is unique to gbootroot.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The lastest user-mode-linux is included: 2.4.12
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Updated the documentation, and it includes a better explanation in step 7
|
|
|
|
for "How can I test gBootRoot?"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Added checks for the existence of ash, lilo, bzip2, and file for the 2
|
|
|
|
disk compression method.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.2.13 - 09/28/2001
|
|
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Renamed "lilo" Boot method to "2 disk compression."
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Added three new entry fields and one radio button to manage
|
|
|
|
kernel modules, and made important changes to the 2 disk
|
|
|
|
compression code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Advanced Section is now Advanced Boot Section (ABS).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Properly handles two different block devices with two
|
|
|
|
different sizes. Tested on /dev/fd?.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Advanced Root Section (ARS) added. Includes root device and
|
|
|
|
size, root filesystem name with Save or Save As, filesystem
|
|
|
|
size, gzip/bzip2/none compression, user-mode-linux kernel
|
|
|
|
selection, Root Method and optional associated Template.

Yard Incorporation Tasks closed: 19556, 22668, 22496.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Yard Method added to ARS which generates the new well
|
|
|
|
featured Yard Box.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Yard Box includes alterable staging behavior for root
|
|
|
|
filesystem creation, template text search, adjustable
|
|
|
|
stripping behavior, editable filesystem and replacements,
|
|
|
|
$PATH appending, testing choices, Save and Save As.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Seamlessly integrated Verbosity Box and slider bar
|
|
|
|
to control the verbosity level added to the main box.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Several bug fixes and enhancements to the original Yard
|
|
|
|
scripts, including a choice of stripping features for
|
|
|
|
libraries, binaries, modules with corresponding sizing
|
|
|
|
checks, link -> file is now literal, unneccessary situations
|
|
|
|
for ../ x path_length removed, testing improvements.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Localized directories provided for users under
|
|
|
|
$HOME/.gbootroot
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Wrote make_debian to automate the creation of a Debian
|
|
|
|
template for the Yard Method. This spawned the
|
|
|
|
make-debian-x11 add-on which is simply the make_debian
|
|
|
|
script with easily made user modifications.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
UML button added to ARS. UML (user-mode-linux) Box
|
|
|
|
provides a testing bed for root filesystems. Previous
|
|
|
|
Options are remembered to save typing, Abort button
|
|
|
|
provides excellent process clean-up.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Wrote an automated package creation script which can
|
|
|
|
be modified for other packages. This script can be found
|
|
|
|
in CVS.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Added user definable resources file "gbootrootrc" for Gtk.

Cameron Caffee <Cameron_C_Caffee@AtlanticMutual.com> sends
|
|
|
|
detailed reports and helps with testing. This leads to
|
|
|

version check being incorporated into the program.
|
