freesource 74dd88069a This is even nicer. It gives both mtdram and blkmtd the same memory parameters 
for mem.  Just have to watch out for that nasty cramfsck by Linus.
 2002-03-07 03:45:11 +00:00
freesource fadcb89061 More mem adjustments, this time to the spin wheel, 1024 for 1, 8192 for 2, 
these are great setting for mtdram .. <16M files can use the small adj.
>16M should zero down with 3 and increment with 2nd button.
 2002-03-07 03:16:46 +00:00
freesource 30a11e4bf2 A few more improvements to the mtd code to handle memory better 16M increments 
for mtdram, will probably do a similiar thing for blkmtd which appears to be
exponential 16 32 64 etc .. ofcourse at 128 things can get narly.
 2002-03-07 02:55:32 +00:00
freesource 6b3eda4286 This pretty much covers it, have both mtdram and blkmtd working, just need to 
figure out where Initrd.gz will be stored.
 2002-03-06 20:30:06 +00:00
freesource 7fcb2ca973 Worked out lots of issues with mem, even using POSIX, tested well for mtdram, 
interface is almost there.
 2002-03-06 07:40:33 +00:00
freesource 07694a9bf1 This sets up everything, and tests the new mtd interface, looks good. 2002-03-06 03:55:19 +00:00
freesource d87f6a9cdd Added the correct options for mkfs.jffs. 2002-03-05 19:04:02 +00:00
freesource f7921951e1 This keeps a nice size ration for $mtd_total_size, and automatically checks if 
the root_fs is real.
 2002-03-05 07:20:58 +00:00
freesource ff5458de18 This uses the defaults for jffs/jffs2 properly, when nothing is added to the cli. 2002-03-05 05:25:26 +00:00
freesource 4553498916 The newest look with the MTD emulator. 2002-03-05 00:23:16 +00:00
freesource 3fcea5beb5 Now it has the look. 2002-03-05 00:13:48 +00:00
freesource 4920a10f03 Better sizing. 2002-03-04 21:06:51 +00:00
freesource 9de4fc1d56 Remembers state for the new mtd emulation. 2002-03-04 20:33:19 +00:00
freesource 935b5983c8 Added a MTD emulation line to the UML box and some functionality. 2002-03-04 19:32:18 +00:00
freesource bf98923042 This properly deals with differening mconsole locations. 2002-03-04 17:48:30 +00:00
freesource 802f6eef91 Info about the staging behavior for non-loop devices .. Create is all that 
is necessary now, added ext3, jffs, and jff2 to fs which can be created.
 2002-03-04 02:21:09 +00:00
freesource bed7b35c12 Documents the cad command. 2002-03-04 02:07:24 +00:00
freesource 896f2a9519 Added cad "Ctrl-Alt-Del" to mconsole interface, and documented it. 
Now looks for mconsole at both old location /tmp/uml/$umid/mconsole and
new location $ENV{HOME}/.uml/$umid/mconsole.
 2002-03-04 02:06:58 +00:00
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.
 2002-03-01 05:45:46 +00:00
freesource 9c2a97b875 Provides default behavior, and user defined which over-rides. 2002-02-22 02:22:26 +00:00
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.
 2002-02-21 18:49:14 +00:00
freesource 12dfb7d1f3 This is a funny change .. -xyz to -qxyz for dswim. 2002-02-14 18:40:49 +00:00

freesource a190c280c6 This adds cramfs-vfs-order.patch. 2002-02-13 20:24:04 +00:00
freesource 504e8545a2 1.3.5 release. 2002-02-13 19:43:15 +00:00
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.
 2002-02-13 19:42:53 +00:00
freesource 40813ffde7 Things to make 1.3.5 a much happier application. Hopefully, the patch will 
be integrated into UML.
 2002-02-13 19:41:58 +00:00
freesource bcef76cf23 Changes, and soon to come changes. 2002-02-13 06:47:16 +00:00

freesource f8dd8a139d More stuff. 2002-02-08 20:08:44 +00:00
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. :)
 2002-02-08 07:24:47 +00:00
freesource 86262ac532 A little bit more text. 2002-02-08 06:38:33 +00:00

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.
 2002-02-07 15:46:00 +00:00
freesource 768d5ea4b4 Removed the mdk from the revision. 2002-02-06 20:17:11 +00:00
freesource 9fe15a4724 This initial specs for rpm-based distributions. Mdk works fine. Will parse 
the filelist from *orig.tar.gz after the deb is made.
 2002-02-06 20:16:21 +00:00
freesource 7b9f4d2d20 A little bit more about the fhs change. 2002-02-04 23:35:59 +00:00

freesource 276cafcc1a grammer and new ch. 2002-02-04 18:23:43 +00:00
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 5f7d6c8941 Improved Replacements Box GUI. 2002-01-22 21:21:20 +00:00
freesource 91e0dee4d6 Adds information about the new filesystem box button. 2002-01-20 17:29:47 +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.
 2002-01-20 17:17:01 +00:00
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.
