freesource	0eadd6eec2	Tested gbootroot-nest1 within a uml, nice, will have to tweak the logic for cmdline only to set-up .gbootroot* properly, and the logic pertaining to mode={tt,skas}, but other than that things are working nicely. Will have to come out with a new make-debian-x11 package, but then again will need to come out with a new root_fs representing the nesting changes, too.	22 years ago
freesource	405d19a98e	This gets things working nicely. Now exits sooner for root_fs_helper because the nbd line no longer presents itself. Makefile is almost done.	22 years ago
freesource	953854a5a4	This gets everything working properly. Now --home works properly both for gui-mode and cli, and all executables can be properly specified. Ex: ./gbootroot --home . --template Example-Mini.yard --uml-exclusively on --expect-program ./expect_uml --uml-kerneluser-mode-linux/usr/bin/linux --root-fs-helper root_filesystem/root_fs_helper ./gbootroot --home . --template Example-Mini.yard --genext2fs-dir genext2fs/ --filesystem-command "genext2fs -z -r0"	22 years ago
freesource	29e9e73202	This allows adds the kernel option for UML in expect_uml, it's amazing what you find when you remove the system package. Getting closer.	22 years ago
freesource	50bbbb674c	cvs from emacs	22 years ago
freesource	8827b1b0d4	Some even more elaborate changes so that the gui can be ran from the immediate directory for testing using only the --home option. Also, made sure genext2fs can be found.	22 years ago
freesource	705d8a7856	Now there are some hidden options so that root_fs can be made from the programs from within the source code like: perl -I . ./gbootroot --home . --template Helper.yard --root-filename root_fs_experiment --root-fs-helper-location ./root_filesystem/root_fs_helper --uml-exclusively on --expect-program ./expect_uml	22 years ago
freesource	bfed2bb88f	This corrects nss_check so that the proper version from libc6 is recognized for nss libraries. Hopefully, this corrects problems for even newer libc6 versions in the future.	22 years ago
freesource	578ddd6dd2	Now things are working perfectly. Had to add a last statement to the while wrapper for expect_uml, this is a new bug. And added preserve-permissions.	22 years ago
freesource	407879252c	Changed stdout to no-stdout so that stdout is the default, but can be turned off, and fixed a major bug with undef value used in dirname which caused to program to die.	22 years ago
freesource	f960c66fcb	This gets just about every option working, except for uml-kernel and preserve-ownership. Adds color --stdout. Basically, the bare min is --template and --stdout for display on console.	22 years ago
freesource	2f4e1cdcc6	This gets read_contents_file working, hopefully error() is the only gtk related sub to watch out for.	22 years ago
freesource	830a1c109a	Now gbootroot is functioning well as either a GUI or CLI in relation to whether or not arguments are added. Options.pm allows things to be checked before interpreting so that a determination can be made what mode to go in.	22 years ago
freesource	8db50ec6ac	This adds some more doc, and begins to explore GetOpt, unfortunately it's presently going into an endless loop when there is an incorrect opt.	22 years ago
freesource	86f767a446	Yard won't attempt to make /dev on compressed fs and ro if /dev is a symbolic link, won't complain when there is an unitialized value in concatation in Boot, Ramdisk_size is always 4096 for mtdram, this setting isn't really necessary, but is left anyways.	23 years ago
freesource	93b5f23410	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.	23 years ago
freesource	d2fb7540f3	This adds jffs/jffs2 construction, expect_uml will have to be changed a little bit more, but have tested this with an initrd, and it works pretty nicely even with large fs assuming mem is set high enough. Mtdram was chosen over blkmtd for now.	23 years ago
freesource	033c61d043	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.	23 years ago
freesource	d64bb295d3	Time to update.	23 years ago
freesource	e017fcaa55	A little experiment with reiserfs which didn't work on a loop device, ofcourse, but is set-up if it ever does. More verbosity when dd runs.	23 years ago
freesource	69938bb625	No sense to have to removes of lost+found.	23 years ago
freesource	8180a0375f	This ensures that the mount point is umount between the Copy and Create stages when root is using a loop device.	23 years ago
freesource	209f162b71	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.	23 years ago
freesource	2f3fa62828	Starting to consider a new stage by replaceing create with copy, and associating create only with the root_fs helper and uml_exclusively.	23 years ago
freesource	5a2e504c1d	a little bit more verbosity change.	23 years ago
freesource	c7ff2c231c	Made the uml_helper output verbosity 2.	23 years ago
freesource	79ceb15b1f	This adds romfs capability.	23 years ago
freesource	08999ef628	perm changes for BootRoot, comment in Yard.	23 years ago
freesource	b261b47c4b	Root Filename and verbosity are properly updated for the new *_cramfs.	23 years ago
freesource	dc17ffe59a	Before, if the sources created from the template had a symlink in them already, you couldn't just press create again .. (for instance for genext2f or uml_exclusively). This has been fixed.	23 years ago
freesource	180b6655de	Making sure permissions are preserved for uml_exclusively in contrast to preserve_ownership.	23 years ago
freesource	7a5dc8a73b	Changed preserve_permissions to preserve_ownership.	23 years ago
freesource	f9ad7744a7	This makes sure that the uml_exclusively and preserve_permissions remain dynamic in the YardBox.	23 years ago
freesource	82ced90590	Added preserve_permissions.	23 years ago
freesource	dac4e56455	The most recent changes .. reiserfs is working nicely now.	23 years ago
freesource	8842b19a6b	Works nicely for normal user now, just need to improve logic a little, and it is ready to ship.	23 years ago
freesource	619981c0cb	Starting to carry the login of uml_exclusively and preserve_permissions over.	23 years ago
freesource	ce48f6e8e1	The ldd test was only checking for busybox .. now it checks for everything, when ldd produces only STDERR then it isn't the libc6 ldd, ofcourse, this should be tested on other alternative libs.	23 years ago
freesource	d67ceb97bb	Making sure normal users get a /dev directory when fs_size > 8192.	23 years ago
freesource	185092ff21	This solves the freeze problem for particularly large templates .. verbosity box still hogs cpu though.	23 years ago
freesource	8496cc1d6a	Added a newline to that warning.	23 years ago
freesource	58e7a202da	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.	23 years ago
freesource	1c435dfadc	This removes a change which was placed when removing chrooted tests, this was an unecessary change and permanently made chrooted tests 0. Also noted how sys could be used for verbosity 3.	23 years ago
freesource	1182907060	Now dd's for normal user if > 8192k, this will be made more sophisticated in the future.	23 years ago
freesource	4f0acd4aaa	Now global hashes are always cleared when a new check is ran, this makes more sense and avoids subtle errors.	23 years ago
freesource	c85fc0f1a8	This turns on and off nss in the ldd loop.	23 years ago
freesource	0248fba79e	More changes to make_link_absolute, since return value and value (what Tom had a tendency to do) don't mix and match happily.	23 years ago
freesource	c7f6af4af5	This takes care of a problem when links were specified which didn't actually exist, or had no / appended .. basically dirname turned into "." which created a directory apart from the loopback dir. Fixed in make_link_absolute.	23 years ago
freesource	3c073ca3dd	Old code which was automatically finding a ld loader regardless of the users own wishes has been consigned to a function call auto_loader which will not be used because this gets away in creating dists with alternative libs, and ld is almost always found if required binaries are chosen, anyways.	23 years ago
freesource	c3d1b82e40	If a replacement is found to be a file in an absolute location it is used.	23 years ago
