gbootroot (1.3.5-1) unstable; urgency=low |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Now the template called Helper.yard used to create the |
|
|
|
|
|
root_fs_helper is included with root_fs_helper. |
|
|
|
|
|
* 1.3.4 was awarded Editor's pick by SoftLandMark, but I recommend |
|
|
|
|
|
upgrading to 1.3.5 because of my oversight with the root_fs_helper |
|
|
|
|
|
issue, as well as the improved initrd testing capability of the |
|
|
|
|
|
specially patched 2.4.17-10um kernel. I also recommend running |
|
|
|
|
|
gbootroot as a normal user, at least that's what I usually do. :) |
|
|
|
|
|
* Root_fs_helper was working fine, but because I hadn't committed, let |
|
|
|
|
|
alone copied the new changes to CVS I didn't notice any aberrations |
|
|
|
|
|
until I installed the new released version of gbootroot. This is |
|
|
|
|
|
related to the new securretty requirements of uml. Problem fixed. |
|
|
|
|
|
* Initrd was not working with any fs other than ext2. After |
|
|
|
|
|
contacting the trinux-uml project, Matthew Franz <mfranz@cisco.com> |
|
|
|
|
|
confirmed that he was having problems creating a working uml for the |
|
|
|
|
|
initrd created by Bill Burdick <bill@appliedreasoning.com>. I |
|
|
|
|
|
talked Bill into sending me his uml .config, and narrowed down the |
|
|
|
|
|
problem to cramfs. Cramfs has known bugs as documented in the |
|
|
|
|
|
kernel sources. Because cramfs was placed before just about every |
|
|
|
|
|
fs in the VFS check order, and trinux-uml's initrd was minix, the |
|
|
|
|
|
kernel failed, but an ext2 initrd didn't. Changing the order in |
|
|
|
|
|
which filesystems are checked during the VFS stage by editing |
|
|
|
|
|
fs/Makefile solves the problem. Thanks to Henrik Nordstrom |
|
|
|
|
|
<hno@marasystems.com> for pointing out how to do this at user-mode- |
|
|
|
|
|
linux-devel. I am hoping the patch found in user-mode- |
|
|
|
|
|
linux/usr/lib/uml/cramfs-vfs-oder.patch becomes part of uml. This |
|
|
|
|
|
should have been corrected ages ago in the standard Linux kernel. |
|
|
|
|
|
* Removed unecessary warning which warned that left-hand side |
|
|
|
|
|
replacements couldn't be a directory if it happened to find that |
|
|
|
|
|
directory on the hostfs. Directories can be replacements. |
