gbootroot (1.3.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
* 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.
