gbootroot (1.4.1-1) unstable; urgency=low |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Updated to 2.4.19-49um and the latest uml tools 20030202. |
|
|
|
* Updated to 2.4.19-46um and the latest uml tools 20021103. |
|
|
|
* Added nesting level 1 to the uml to allow gbootroot to have full |
|
|
|
functionality under another uml running on the host kernel. This |
|
|
|
means the uml will use more memory, but its negligible. |
|
|
|
* Wrote and added a C program skas-or-tt to automatically add the |
|
|
|
proper mode={skas,tt} to the commandline. This means compilation |
|
|
|
will be optimized, and things won't lock up when using gbootroot |
|
|
|
within a uml running on top of a host kernel without the skas patch. |
|
|
|
* The MTD Emulator doesn't work as nicely as before. Blkmtd seems |
|
|
|
mostly broken, and mtdram needs more careful tweaking for total |
|
|
|
size, though mtdram definitely still works. This is due to changes |
|
|
|
in uml which will have to be addressed since the code for the mtd |
|
|
|
modules didn't change. |
|
|
|
* Had to add user-mode-linux/usr/lib/uml to the PATH to allow --home |
|
|
|
to find port-helper, or otherwise root_fs complain. Have no idea |
|
|
|
why this change exists with the new port-helper because that wasn't |
|
|
|
the case before. Also, added path for user-mode-linux/usr/bin to |
|
|
|
find the other tools. |
|
|
|
* The Makefile has been altered quite a bit, and wgets necessary |
|
|
|
sources, unconventional but very nice in keeping up with jdike's |
|
|
|
latest patch. You can now live quite happily out of the source |
|
|
|
directory. |
|
|
|
* Added the templates for Initrd and root_fs_helper and the |
|
|
|
corresponding replacements that are also used by the source package. |
|
|
|
* Updated the documentation, and the README found in the source |
|
|
|
packages is now available in the normal packages. |
|
|
|
* The biggest change is the command-line interface with the yard root |
|
|
|
method. Now distribute your template and let others easily recreate |
|
|
|
your root_fs without entering the gui by running "gbootroot -- |
|
|
|
template your_template" and this is a nice way to manage a |
|
|
|
distribution you are developing. This also means that source |
|
|
|
packages are completely automated now, and vastly improved, which is |
|
|
|
quite awesome. |
|
|
|
* When root_fs_helper was running with the newer Expect.pm, and |
|
|
|
consequentially the newer uml kernel it became necessary to get out |
|
|
|
when the kernel shuts down with a last function right when it says |
|
|
|
"Power down" or "bd.*module cleaned up." |
|
|
|
* Checks for the proper version for newer libc6 linkers. Hopefully, |
|
|
|
should work properly with libc6 > 2.3.1, too. |
