freesource	dac5b05c88	Added a button to open up the Filesystem Box from the ARS, this is on the same line as Filesystem Size.	23 years ago
freesource	77f64443e3	Getting ready for another release. During the boot stage the filsystem type was used to determine whether to use the genext2fs (non-root) method or the normal method used by root. Now the user type is used, this is better because it prevents conflicts if a different filesystem type is chosen, or if a non-root user changes to a different filesystem type in the filesystem box and forgets to change back to genext2fs; however, it prevents root from using the genext2fs method, which isn't a problem. The sudo requirement for lilo is too much of a requirement, and will be changed in future versions.	23 years ago
freesource	fb9b3ed43b	Fixed another non-root boot/root bug. The info had it correct, but the actual copy with genext2fs was being done from the wrong location. This has been fixed.	23 years ago
freesource	b14a469786	Had some testing code which was providing the wrong value for $compress, this made non-root booting fail for bzip2 because bunzip2 didn't exist in the initrd.	23 years ago
freesource	8cac3030ca	State is saved for the Compression off check box and the Root Filename save check box.	23 years ago
freesource	b8ad37acb1	The UML Kernel entry box in the ARS remembers state now.	23 years ago
freesource	769e0b8200	Changed the behavior of save_as so that when compression is chosen, the entry won't be the same as that found in Root Filename, but instead reflects the newly compressed file. This change was precipitated by the previous change to the Accept behavior.	23 years ago
freesource	6ab88fd8d2	Fixed a typo which made bz2 into gz since previous accept button change.	23 years ago
freesource	8d0983c78b	Prep for 1.3.2 release.	23 years ago
freesource	d813ad115d	This should fix the bug reported by Liav Asseraf. The main program was rearragned and put in BootRoot, but the BEGIN block which sets up the FHS for perl's INC was now in this file, so ofcourse, gbootroot couldn't find the modules.	23 years ago
freesource	d64bb295d3	Time to update.	23 years ago
freesource	0a4e5df657	Fixed a grammar error in help.	23 years ago
freesource	110b8937d1	Changed the UML boxes Options entry tooltips, but makes me wonder whether the behavior originally cited may be a good idea?	23 years ago
freesource	fe313e798e	Last changes before 1.3.1 release.	23 years ago
freesource	df3f36f9cc	Changed text for boot method, slight change in main file.	23 years ago
freesource	18ba567e2f	Improving doc.	23 years ago
freesource	413cde8525	Spelling change.	23 years ago
freesource	8d0a1f08a8	Added halt and reboot to the mconsole interface as well as a convenience .. buttons can be used as well.	23 years ago
freesource	a53e4770cc	This adds switch, version and help and updates the doc.	23 years ago
freesource	48c5e15a32	Misc. changes.	23 years ago
freesource	c73a23604d	This adds an interface to both halt and reboot via the mconsole with two respective buttons in the UML Box.	23 years ago
freesource	b2e4321c19	Getting ready for release.	23 years ago
freesource	08999ef628	perm changes for BootRoot, comment in Yard.	23 years ago
freesource	dcb20ba0f5	Minor details.	23 years ago
freesource	6a6a26cda2	This was a lot more involved than I first suspected, but the solution was simpler than I thought .. & backgrounds the process .. and then the pid is watched for in /proc to dissappear. So it is very mult-tasking.	23 years ago
freesource	823f521ffe	This prevents the app. from not locking when really large files are compressed, it locks a little between large chunks, but a lot better than before .. also there is now a little verbosity to tell when the process is over.	23 years ago
freesource	85ff2a51af	Changes for the fs box.	23 years ago
freesource	e366990b5e	This is what is wanted, but ars is still necessary.	23 years ago
freesource	6a1bb9f9a3	This is the beginning of better symbol control, ars will be dispensed with. Basically gbootroot has just one function start() called from BootRoot. Eventually BootRoot will be split further into ARS and ABS. This makes more sense then having one large gbootroot .. it just grew too much.	23 years ago
freesource	16a076e283	This gets rid of the annoying perhaps you are not root for gdkbirdaao, and only tests if root and using a method which has lilo .. default if method hasn't been chosen.	23 years ago
freesource	4db5216447	Date change.	23 years ago
freesource	6d4c8ead9d	Got rid of the \.yard suffix rule, though template needs to be ^\w+, I never really documented this, and it may trick users who aren't aware of the rule.	23 years ago
freesource	568ff893ff	Adds symlinks for archictecture dependent repository direcotory.	23 years ago
freesource	2a2483ba7f	Some doc about error output spelling correction.	23 years ago
freesource	9496c72553	Updated the version number. At this point gbootroot is officially 1.3.0 having reached some milestones.	23 years ago
freesource	2536c2dd66	Changes have been removed and placed in their own file.	23 years ago
freesource	7ef6926d9c	Where to find the FAQ in help.	23 years ago
freesource	03022313bc	Made usize into set_default_size form uml_window.	23 years ago
freesource	c40e77276b	Changed the size of the box so that options and the root_fs have more room.	23 years ago
freesource	9d2ffa3a89	Added Esc close capability for save as.	23 years ago
freesource	830467df85	This removes -i8192 from genext2fs default, this just causes problems, the defaults built into genext2fs work alot better.	23 years ago
freesource	74e5270f06	$ENV{RELEASE} is now initialized every time a check is run on the template. Information can come from three sources, the kernel version returned from a selected kernel in the main section, the user defined kernel version in the ABS, or `uname -r`. User defined kernel version overrides the kernel. The root_fs needs to be built in relation to the actual kernel modules it will run on. Previously the $RELEASE value wasn't returned properly because of some bugs in kernel_version_check. This has been fixed.	23 years ago
freesource	d1cd32b44d	Only gives $mtab a value on cancel if it is a bootloader check.	23 years ago
freesource	306cbc8cd0	Turned off the busybox test.	23 years ago
freesource	44a5828e82	This solves the problem of extra devices in boot_device_table.txt	23 years ago
freesource	f4d63b90d9	This does a great job of prompting the user if they have root privileges for lilo, they may continue or stop the process. This uses mtab().	23 years ago
freesource	e507aa375e	This almost creates a successful normal user boot disk .. but doesn't find /dev/fd0 despite its existence. Also, rootdisk isn't created yet. Getting pretty close.	23 years ago
freesource	2eff37e59b	This makes the default replacement directory permanent, rather than calling it over and over again. Right, now busyboxes ldd is being used in Yard.pm for some experiments.	23 years ago
freesource	80cb0748bb	Added -z to genext2fs.	23 years ago
freesource	3015d7f233	Added -p to objcopy.	23 years ago
