. update release.sh's notion of where packages are
. update release.sh's notion of how many files are on root
as -xdev won't work anymore to separate /usr from /
- A staging directory is always used to avoid oversized images;
- As a consequence, the zero-filling is removed so no more "out of
space" errors should be printed to the console;
- The root and usr partition sizes are computed so less space should be
wasted (the root partition gets extra 1MB zones and 64 inodes for
run-time though and hardlinks/holes make the used space slightly less
than expected); USRMB (and the new ROOTMB) are now used to enforce
a minimum size rather than set the size;
- TMPDISK1-3 are renamed to more meaningful names (and TMPDISK2 is
dropped because a separate tmp directory is no longer needed);
- The ramdisks are truncated at the end to save memory (not sure
whether it is actually released though).
boot is a normal binary with a.out again. use 'cdbootblock,' a CDBOOT
variant of bootblock, both from bootblock.s, as the first boot image
that then loads boot, exactly like the bootblock loads boot when booting
from harddisk. the sector numbers (2048 byte iso sectors) are patched in
by writeisofs, like installboot does for bootblock. bootblock unchanged.
- Make the bootstrap /etc/mk be populated from the newly checked out source
- Don't chmod 755 all of /etc
- For the 'real' /etc/mk installing, let the /etc/mk ownership and permission
come from the mtree file, delete the contents of /etc/mk, then copy the .mk
files over and set reasonable permissions and ownership. (So that the .mk
get updated from the real usr/src/ copies, and no other junk if anything,
after the bootstrap phase, whatever happened there.)
ow that the image has grown beyond the 1.44M that fits on a floppy.
(previously, the floppy emulation mode was used for cd's.)
the boot cd now uses 'no emulation mode,' where an image is provided on
the cd that is loaded and executed directly. this is the boot monitor.
in order to make this work (the entry point is the same as where the
image is loaded, and the boot monitor needs its a.out header too) and
keep compatability with the same code being used for regular booting, i
prepended 16 bytes that jumps over its header so execution can start
there.
to be able to read the CD (mostly in order to read the boot image),
boot has to use the already present 'extended read' call, but address
the CD using 2k sectors.
determine which packages and package sources to include on the
installation media, as opposed to including everything in the
PACKAGEDIR AND PACKAGESOURCEDIR directories.
