freesource 61bd20e212 Added vc/? and vcs?, because the new uml kernel looks for this now. 2002-02-08 20:00:35 +00:00
freesource 911d5a188b This will change over time. Automatically generated by dswim -qpl for
%files -f %{_topdir}/SOURCES/filelist.  I can't figure out how to get it in
the sources without actually putting it in the sources. So this is the official
place to look for the list. :)

freesource 9c3659f451 Using a filelist generated with dswim, instead of putting everything into spec. 2002-02-07 15:47:18 +00:00
freesource 694b01389f Universal packages, like what comes with Debian for Expect, proper deps in
Expect, and IO::Tty is put in a non-versioned and non-arch place which should
work fine on the majority of rpm-based distributions.

freesource d97ed5d819 Fixed another non-fhs path issue when fooling around in mdk.
# I always thought the BEGIN statements were executed before everything else,
# but I have discovered that in this case it has to be placed before the
# use statements if exec /usr/bin/gbootroot is done via $PATH .. I guess
# that makes sense because $PATH is established in the BEGIN.
2002-02-04 18:22:18 +00:00
freesource 27a6d3fbd6 The new look. 2002-01-22 21:25:34 +00:00

freesource dac5b05c88 Added a button to open up the Filesystem Box from the ARS, this is on the same
line as Filesystem Size.

freesource f2cfe39a9f More credits. 2002-01-16 14:21:49 +00:00
freesource ab29f69bc2 Added mailto to my email address per Linus Gasser's bug report. 2002-01-16 14:10:05 +00:00
freesource 3a1c102de5 Added Liav for 1.3.3 dedication. 2002-01-15 18:23:32 +00:00
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.
2002-01-15 17:34:55 +00:00
freesource fa195b3ff6 Another real version :) 2002-01-15 07:43:31 +00:00
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.
2002-01-15 07:01:02 +00:00
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.
2002-01-15 06:39:58 +00:00
freesource ce893535ff Changed "real numbers" to "real version" on libc .. makes more sense. 2002-01-15 04:14:15 +00:00
freesource 34cd7f016d FAQ explains how the 2 disk compression kernel should be used without a
kernel without devfs.
2002-01-15 02:45:54 +00:00
freesource 6dbb2d58c7 Added another technique in the FAQ to show how space can be saved on the
root_fs by using the libraries from the initrd.  Liav instigated this by
asking a question related to FAQ question 14, "So if I understand correctly,
it is not possible to copy libc from /dev/ram0 to /dev/ram1 before mounting
/dev/ram1 as / ?

Liav pointed out how Yard can make boot/root floppies with a compressed root
filesystem.  Edited FAQ question 13 to correctly reflect how gz compressed
root filesystems may be booted without an initrd.
2002-01-14 04:15:46 +00:00
freesource 8cac3030ca State is saved for the Compression off check box and the Root Filename save
check box.
2002-01-14 01:19:59 +00:00
freesource b8ad37acb1 The UML Kernel entry box in the ARS remembers state now. 2002-01-14 01:06:05 +00:00
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.

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.
2002-01-06 06:28:28 +00:00
freesource 3cb6c28c0e Added remove for port-helper. 2002-01-04 01:38:13 +00:00
freesource da83a2436b Adds the port-helper. For now this is being put in /usr/lib/uml since it is
assumed that uml is looking here for it.
