This is a nice patch, and an earlier compilier issue has + disappeared. + * Added the MTD Emulation section to the UML Box. This allows + filesystems to be run on a simulated Memory Technology Device via + mtdram or blkmtd. This is most useful for running jffs2 fs + (compressed journaling fs designed for flash memory). This is handy + for shipping and running jffs2 images, and to test this and other fs + ultimately designated for a MTD device. With a little tweaking + they should run well on an x86 MTD. + * If a fs is being made with mkcramfs, genromfs, mkfs.jffs or + mkfs.jffs2 and the directories /dev or /initrd don't exist, they are + automatically are created during the create stage. Initrd dir is + needed for mtd emulation testing, and dev is also required. Devfs + will always be used on /dev, and won't be an option. + * Added cad "Ctrl-Alt-Del" to mconsole interface, and documented it. + * Added EmptyFS.yard template with instructions, and which does what + you think it does. + * Now looks for mconsole at both Locations /tmp/uml/$umid/mconsole and + new location $ENV{HOME}/.uml/$umid/mconsole by not specifying a + direct path. Some older mconsoles seemed to require this, but 10um + onwards respects this. + * Now files for uml_exclusively are made in create_expect_uml which is + effectively known as the create stage. This avoids the unecessary + previous requirement of having to select the copy stage again just + to create a file for /dev/ubd/0. The file created is sparse, got + this idea from a discussion Jeff had with a user on uml-user. + * Added jffs/jffs2 image construction. + + -- Jonathan Rosenbaum Mon, 11 Mar 2002 00:43:24 -0500 + gbootroot (1.3.5-1) unstable; urgency=low * Now the template called Helper.yard used to create the diff --git a/pkg/rpm/gbootroot-mdk.spec b/pkg/rpm/gbootroot-mdk.spec index cf8d0f1..14df592 100644 --- a/pkg/rpm/gbootroot-mdk.spec +++ b/pkg/rpm/gbootroot-mdk.spec @@ -9,7 +9,7 @@ # Update this according to version -%define version 1.3.5 +%define version 1.3.6 %define release 1mdk @@ -49,6 +49,8 @@ BootRoot makes the construction and development of distributions fun and simple with its Root Methods such as Yard and user-mode-linux test bed.
