| |
| * Version 1.3.6 |
| |
| * The "IBM needs to test prereleases" release. |
| |
| * Documentation: |
| - New IGNORE^H^H^H^H^H^HREADME, thanks to Chris Tillman for |
| cleaning up the pile of cruft that this thing was. |
| - yabootconfig man page was missing --kernel-args from SYNOPSIS. |
| - Include README.rs6000 in the binary dist. |
| |
| * ybin: |
| - Automatically use fstype=raw on IBM CHRP, it no longer needs |
| to be explicitly set in /etc/yaboot.conf. |
| - Deprecate ybin's yaboot.conf auto-generation, use yabootconfig |
| instead. |
| |
| * yaboot: |
| - Fix IBM CHRP support. |
| - Fix device path parsing to support devices containing a comma, |
| but not including a filename. |
| - Add support for zImage.initrd (Peter Bergner). |
| - help output no longer claims device=NULL if yaboot.conf does not define it. |
| - Make password prompting a bit nicer looking. |
| - Short penalty delay on incorrect passwords. |
| |
| 2001-10-28 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 1.3.5 |
| |
| * Add yaboot-howto, Thanks to Chris Tillman. |
| |
| * yaboot: |
| - XFS fixes for large partitions (Brendan O'Dea). |
| - Upgrade libext2fs to 1.25, this adds full ext3 support to yaboot. |
| - Reiserfs fixes (Jeff Mahoney). |
| - Implement the message= configuration option (see yaboot.conf man page). |
| |
| 2001-10-13 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 1.3.4 |
| |
| * ybin: Correct a verbosity message. |
| |
| * yaboot: |
| - Add SGI XFS filesystem support. |
| - Rewrite OpenFirmware device path parsing code. This fixes |
| many bugs and inconsistencies in yaboot's file loading. |
| - Fix OpenFirmware filesystem support to automatically convert |
| path separator from / to \. CDROM authors no longer need to use |
| kludges like image=\\install\\powermac\\vmlinux. |
| - Fix kernel loading on some systems. |
| - Allow for getting files from tftp server that does not run a |
| bootpd/dhcpd. |
| - Fix netboot when using the `n' key. |
| - Fix a great deal of incorrect format strings which could cause |
| yaboot crashes. |
| - Fix all filesystems to properly return error conditions, and |
| report those error conditions (instead of just saying `image not |
| found'). |
| - Make configuration file open error consistent with other file |
| open errors. |
| - Add `help' command to yaboot which prints out basic usage information. |
| - Add non-fatal warning when bootstrap partition has wrong type (pmac only). |
| - Minor code rearrangement. |
| - General cruft removal and code cleanup. |
| |
| * Makefile cleanup, make filesystems configurable. |
| |
| 2001-09-25 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 1.3.3 |
| |
| * Add --debug option to yabootconfig |
| |
| * Fix BSD booting support somewhat. The bsd= option's semantics |
| have changed, it must now be set to the BSD root partition. ybin |
| will now install /usr/local/lib/yaboot/ofwboot onto the bootstrap |
| partition when bsd= is present in /etc/yaboot.conf. The dual boot |
| menu will then execute "ofwboot <bsd_root_part>,/bsd" this means |
| the bsd kernel must be at /bsd on the BSD root partition. |
| |
| 2001-09-24 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 1.3.2 |
| |
| * Fix Makefile thinko where make install failed if |
| /etc/yaboot.conf already existed. |
| |
| 2001-09-20 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 1.3.1 |
| |
| * Don't include /etc/yaboot.conf in binary dist, instead put the |
| example in /usr/local/share/doc. This way extracting the tarball |
| from / won't blow away existing configs. |
| |
| * Move strip commands from install target to strip target, install |
| now depends on strip. |
| |
| 2001-09-20 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 1.3 |
| |
| * Merging of ybin and yaboot source trees, this is now the |
| official upstream yaboot/ybin source tree. |
| |
| * yaboot: |
| - Various ppc64 & chrp fixes by Peter Bergner, fix fdisk partition |
| handling. |
| - Fix netboot (was broken by reiserfs patch) |
| |
| 2001-08-26 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 1.2.6 |
| |
| * ofpath became broken on non-scsi systems due to quoting fix. |
| |
| 2001-08-20 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 1.2.5 |
| |
| * Fix broken quoting uncovered by debian's current /bin/ash. |
| |
| 2001-08-06 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 1.2.4 |
| |
| * ofboot: remove <OS-VOLUME-NAME> tag as it was causing the |
| OpenFirmware multibooter to crash. |
| |
| * mkofboot: zero first 800K of bootstrap partition before creating |
| filesystem. |
| |
| * yaboot: |
| - Version 1.2.3 |
| - Supports using an md5 hash as well as plaintext password. (me) |
| - Fix again system.map loading. That also fix an old pending bug |
| we had where yaboot could pass random values for system.map, |
| causing the kernel to mark random pages reserved. (BenH) |
| - IBM CHRP fixes. (Peter Bergner) |
| - Add reiserfs support (Jeff Mahoney) |
| |
| 2001-06-30 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 1.2.3 |
| |
| * ofpath: |
| - Version 1.0 |
| - Add support for IBM CHRP, thanks to Marco d'Itri for testing. |
| - Use real wc if available, this speeds up ofpath slightly for scsi. |
| - Make variables local to their function unless they need to be global. |
| |
| * ybin: |
| - If installing on IBM CHRP run addnote on yaboot binary before installing. |
| - Reword some error/verbose messages |
| - Make variables local to their function unless they need to be global. |
| |
| 2001-06-24 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 1.2.2 |
| |
| * yabootconfig: |
| - Now works with braindamaged versions of pdisk. |
| - Add --kernel-args switch which allows boot-floppies to easily |
| add an append= line if needed. |
| |
| 2001-06-01 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 1.2.1 |
| |
| * Fix test for strict posix/SUS echo behavior. |
| |
| * Check for printf built into the shell. |
| |
| * yabootconfig: check for and attempt to deal with cross device symlinks. |
| |
| 2001-05-28 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 1.2 |
| |
| * Added yabootconfig, a script to build a valid /etc/yaboot.conf |
| |
| * ybin: |
| - Detect IBM CHRP hardware and disable nvram update automatically |
| - Automatically run yabootconfig if /etc/yaboot.conf is missing |
| - Check for PATH_PREFIX environment variable and add all bin and |
| sbin directories from under it to PATH. This is for boot-floppies. |
| - Add bsd= to list of multiboot options. |
| |
| * ofboot: bump maximum number of OSes to 8. |
| |
| * ofpath: |
| - No longer report bogus paths for non-existent scsi devices. |
| - Fix bug where garbage characters were mixed with the |
| OpenFirmware device path. |
| - Fix broken Wallstreet PowerBook support. |
| - Add support for silly devfs naming convention, Thanks to Tom Rini. |
| |
| 2001-05-06 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 1.1.1 |
| |
| * ofboot: |
| - Hopefully fix random and rare booting problem when chainloading |
| other OSes. Thanks to Segher Boessenkool for the fix. |
| - Add volume name which shows up in the OpenFirmware multiboot |
| screen. |
| - It is now possible to replace the badge icon for the multiboot |
| screen, see examples/README.mbicon. |
| |
| * yaboot: |
| - Version 1.2.1 |
| - Includes my previous 1.1.1-eb3 patches for password protection and single-key. |
| |
| * Various spelling errors and clarifications to man pages. Thanks to sword. |
| |
| 2001-04-26 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 1.1 |
| |
| * ofpath: |
| - Version 0.8 |
| - Add support for Performa 6400_200, PowerMac 4400, and the clones. |
| - Removed `No such file or directory' errors when system has no |
| scsi at all. |
| |
| * ybin: |
| - If delay= is not set use value of timeout= (converted to |
| seconds) instead. |
| - Removed command line options --type, --creator, and long |
| obsolete and deprecated --conffile. The config file options |
| hfstype and hfscreator are still there. |
| - Removed long obsolete and deprecated bootconf= config option. |
| - Removed some old now unneeded debug cruft. |
| |
| * yaboot: |
| - Include version 1.1.1-eb3, this includes the following changes |
| - Adds password protection capabilities. |
| - Add `single-key' option from silo. |
| |
| * Documentation: |
| - Rewrote the yaboot.conf man page, now derived from silo.conf(5) |
| |
| 2001-03-22 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 1.0 |
| |
| * ybin: |
| - Fix a few bugs that occured when magicboot= was not used. |
| - Add basic support for IBM style bootstrap partitions. These |
| partitions have yaboot dded directly to them. See the yaboot.conf |
| man page regarding fstype for more info, also |
| examples/yaboot.conf.rs6k. |
| - Don't require that ofpath be installed if its not needed. |
| |
| * Documentation: |
| - Added examples/yaboot.conf.rs6k |
| - Man page updates for IBM support. |
| |
| 2001-02-19 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.31 |
| |
| * ofpath: |
| - Quiet shell error when run on non-PowerMac (but still |
| PowerPC) hardware. |
| - Properly recognize more OldWorld PowerMac G3s. |
| - Fix OldWorld detection for kernels < 2.2.17 |
| - Require that /proc be mounted. |
| |
| * ybin: |
| - Fix OldWorld detection for kernels < 2.2.17 |
| - Make the `not bootable on OldWorld' warning very loud and |
| obnoxious. |
| - Change PATH to make /usr/local the last component instead of |
| the first. |
| - Make the text/background color in the boot menu configurable, |
| see the yaboot.conf(5) man page for details. |
| - Change default foreground color to white per yaboot 1.0. |
| - Remove support for obsolete /etc/ybin.conf. |
| |
| * Documentation: |
| - Clarified the `partition=' variable in the yaboot.conf man page |
| and correct an error in the example in that man page. |
| - Added more comments to included yaboot.conf examples. |
| |
| * yaboot: |
| - Include version 1.1.1 |
| - Includes color support |
| |
| 2000-11-18 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.30 |
| |
| * ybin: add `brokenosx' option, when used with macosx= ybin makes |
| the MacOSX menu entry execute \System\Library\CoreServices\BootX |
| directly instead of using \\:tbxi. This is necessary for |
| people who insist on installing OSX on HFS+ instead of UFS, since |
| MacOS deblesses HFS+ OSX partitions. |
| |
| 2000-10-28 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.29 (the brown paper bag release) |
| |
| * The yaboot.conf man page was broken. |
| |
| * While were at it, include yaboot 0.9 binary (compiled -Os, |
| stripped) |
| |
| 2000-10-24 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.28 |
| |
| * ybin: Add mntpoint= option, this allows ybin to install the |
| bootstrap into an already mounted filesystem. This is NOT |
| recommended unless you know what your doing. |
| |
| * ybin: fixed generation of ofboot.b so it will work with nobless |
| and usemount. |
| |
| 2000-10-20 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.27 |
| |
| * ofboot: fixed problem where text was not visible on some newer iMacs. |
| |
| * ybin: Now warn the user when they are using ybin on an OldWorld |
| PowerMac. (it will still work since its possible to make newworld |
| bootable disks on an OldWorld mac) |
| |
| * ofpath: Now works on oldworld macs under 2.4 kernels. |
| |
| * Added check for packaged versions of ybin to the Makefile and |
| warn user about them. |
| |
| 2000-09-23 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.26 |
| |
| * ofboot: completely rewrote the generator script, it is now more |
| extendable and supports more menu options. More thanks to iNOUE |
| Koich! for the continuing help on OpenFirmware issues!! |
| |
| * ybin: added options for mulitboot menu: now can create a menu |
| with options for GNU/Linux, MacOS, MacOSX, Darwin, and booting off |
| a CDROM, from the network, and even directly into an OpenFirmware |
| prompt. |
| |
| * ybin: some errors were sent to stdout instead of stderr, fixed. |
| |
| * ofpath: refuse to run on anything but GNU/Linux. (for now anyway) |
| |
| 2000-09-18 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.25 |
| |
| * ofboot: now changes the background color to black and the text |
| color to cyan like yaboot. Thanks to again to iNOUE Koich! |
| |
| 2000-09-16 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.24 |
| |
| * ofboot: many bugs in the Forth code fixed. code should now be |
| compliant to the OpenFirmware spec. Also add CD boot menu option. |
| (add enablecdboot to /etc/yaboot.conf) Thanks to iNOUE Koich! for |
| the Forth code. |
| |
| 2000-09-13 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.23 |
| |
| * ybin: now hard code the target filename for ofboot, its always |
| installed as ofboot.b on the bootstrap partition. This eliminates |
| ambiguity when someone tries a different script with different name. |
| |
| * ybin: all debugging output goes to stderr now. |
| |
| 2000-09-09 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.22 |
| |
| * ofboot.b renamed to ofboot. (.b means boot block which this is not) |
| |
| * yaboot and ofboot are now installed in /usr/local/lib/yaboot/ |
| instead of /boot, since these files are never directly accessed by |
| the firmware it is not really appropriate to keep them in /boot. |
| make install will create backwords compatibility symlinks when |
| installing over an older version of ybin so nothing should break. |
| IMPORTANT: you should run mkofboot on a dedicated bootstrap |
| partition to purge old filenames. |
| |
| * Man pages updated to reflect new file locations. Also include a |
| patch to change the paths to /usr/lib/yaboot for Debian and redhat |
| package maintainers. |
| |
| * ybin: now checks two places for a default value for install= |
| /usr/local/lib/yaboot/yaboot, /usr/lib/yaboot/yaboot. |
| |
| 2000-09-02 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.21 |
| |
| * ybin: fixed nvram update so it uses a real filename instead of |
| \\:tbxi when nobless is set in /etc/yaboot.conf. (\\: means find |
| file in blessed directory). |
| |
| * ofpath: more oldworld machines supported. Now supports 7200, |
| 7300, 8600, 9500, Gossamer G3, PowerBook 1998, PowerBook 3400 (and |
| possibly 2400). |
| |
| 2000-08-31 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.20 |
| |
| * ybin: check for Newworld compatible nvsetenv and if found will |
| automatically update the OpenFirmware boot-device variable in |
| nvram. |
| |
| * ofpath: support some oldworld machines. (this does not mean |
| ybin/yaboot supports oldworld). Also silence a harmless error on |
| machines lacking a CDROM. |
| |
| * ofboot.b: added more machines to <COMPATIBLE> |
| |
| 2000-08-25 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.19 |
| |
| * Added PowerMac3,2 and PowerMac3,3 to ofboot.b scripts. Fixes |
| Debian bug #69870 |
| |
| 2000-08-22 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.18 |
| |
| * ofboot.b: changed the yaboot boot commands to boot yaboot by |
| filename rather then file type. Booting by file type did not work |
| reliably on all machines. |
| |
| * ybin: hard code the target filename for yaboot, regardless of |
| the source filename (from install=) the target filename on the |
| bootstrap partition will always be "yaboot.b". |
| |
| * Added ofpath utility, this is a rewrite of the show_of_path.sh |
| utility written by Olaf Hering. Ofpath works with /bin/ash and on |
| stripped down systems such as the Debian boot floppies. Also |
| wrote a small man page for this utility. |
| |
| * ybin: automatically use ofpath to find the OpenFirmware device |
| path when ofpath= is not defined in /etc/yaboot.conf. Ybin will |
| also use ofpath when macos= or macosx= are set to unix device |
| nodes (ie /dev/hda11), these options can still be set to |
| OpenFirmware paths as well. |
| |
| * Makefile: minor cleanup, added installation of ofpath |
| utility/man page as well as a deinstall rule. |
| |
| 2000-08-13 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.17 |
| |
| * Yaboot 0.7 binary included. |
| |
| * ybin: fix bug where ybin would fail if the bootstrap files |
| included an "_" in the filename. (actually its a workaround for |
| hfsutils brain-damage) |
| |
| * ofboot.b: completely rewritten. Now includes shell script code |
| to allow ybin to configure it based on config options in |
| /etc/yaboot.conf instead of requiring the user to edit it |
| themselves. Additionally this new script will display a REAL boot |
| menu when dual booting is configured. It is capable of dual or |
| tri booting GNU/Linux (yaboot), MacOS 8.*/9.* and MacOSX. This |
| new ofboot.b script should *NOT* be edited by the user, and thus |
| should NOT be marked as a conffile in Debian and redhat packages. |
| These packages should now install ofboot.b in /boot instead of |
| /etc since it is no longer a config file. WARNING: The Forth code |
| in this script has not been tested on all machines and may not be |
| universally compatible. Thanks to Chris Emerson for writing the |
| Forth code. |
| |
| * yaboot.conf: new options: ofboot= macos= macosx= delay= |
| defaultos=. See the yaboot.conf man page for details. |
| |
| * Now include a Makefile to handle installation, only make install |
| is defined. Removed install-sh. |
| |
| * mkofboot is now distributed and installed as a symlink instead |
| of a hardlink. |
| |
| * Man page updates. |
| |
| 2000-04-25 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.16 |
| |
| * menu_ofboot.b: fixed bug where the yaboot line was missing the |
| boot command, this prevented it from booting yaboot. |
| |
| 2000-04-25 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.15 |
| |
| * Merge quik's bootstrap(8) man page with ybin's ofboot(8) man |
| page and rename it back to bootstrap(8). This also solves the |
| conflict with quik. In a more useful way IMO. |
| |
| 2000-04-24 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.14 |
| |
| * Ship man pages uncompressed, gzip them in install-sh instead, |
| this allows for easier patching by debian maintainers if need be. |
| |
| * Rename bootstrap(8) man page to ofboot(8) so ybin does not |
| conflict with quik. |
| |
| 2000-04-23 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.13 |
| |
| * Rewrote the config file parsing yet again to remove dependencies |
| on tr, and awk. This allows ybin to function on minimal systems |
| such as boot/rescue floppies. This also pretty much solves the |
| slowness problem. Thanks to Daniel Jacobwitz for the help. |
| |
| * Made changes to remove dependencies on basename and wc. Again |
| this is to allow ybin to work on boot floppies. |
| |
| * Changed all calls to grep to stop using GNU extensions, this is |
| so ybin will work properly with the minimal version of grep |
| included in busybox. |
| |
| * Added signal handling so ybin/mkofboot will cleanup after |
| themselves if killed with signals 1 2 3 or 15. |
| |
| * Added OS Badge icons to the ofboot.b scripts. On G4 machines |
| you can hold down the option key and get a graphical boot selector |
| with one button for each bootable partition, the button with the |
| penguin icon is the bootstrap partition. Thanks to Nicholas |
| Humfrey for creating the Badge icon. |
| |
| * Minor updates to the man pages. |
| |
| 2000-04-19 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.12 |
| |
| * Now include yaboot binary in ybin distribution. |
| |
| * Include a install-sh script to install everything. |
| |
| * Use of the separate ybin.conf file is deprecated. Use |
| /etc/yaboot.conf instead. |
| |
| * Removed the so called kludge options, without being able to |
| bless the root directory they were just useless bloat. |
| |
| * Removed useless --readonly option, it was already default (as it |
| should be) |
| |
| * Deprecated bootconf options since the yaboot.conf is the same |
| config ybin uses. (it is still there and works but that may change) |
| |
| * Changed configuration file format to be more like quik/lilo: |
| bootfile= is now install= (--bootfile is now --install), wrapper= |
| is now magicboot=, usemount, protect, and hide are now just a |
| keyword options, if they are present in the configuration file |
| they are turned on, if they are not present they are turned off. |
| bless= is now the nobless keyword option, since bless is default |
| this one changed names. |
| |
| * ybin: no longer need to specify -C /dev/null if you don't have a |
| configuration file in /etc/. If this is the case ybin will generate |
| a generic yaboot.conf to install on the bootstrap partition. |
| |
| * More changes to the configuration parsing to improve speed, the |
| format change also helped the speed problem. |
| |
| * Added man pages for ybin, mkofboot, yaboot, yaboot.conf and |
| bootstrap. |
| |
| * More general fixes/cleanup/tweaks. |
| |
| 2000-03-13 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.11 |
| |
| * Added command line options to both scripts, try --help. This |
| makes the ybin.conf file optional if you wish (-C /dev/null) |
| |
| * Changed the way the config file is parsed, no longer source it |
| with the shell, this allows ybin.conf to be merged with |
| yaboot.conf at which point yaboot can live with unknown options in |
| its config file. |
| |
| * Use /etc/ybin.conf if it exists, if not use /etc/yaboot.conf for |
| ybin configuration. |
| |
| * Merged ybin and mkofboot into one script, mkofboot shared 90% of |
| of its code with ybin anyway and this will make them much easier |
| to maintain. mkofboot is now a hard link to ybin (or a symlink if |
| you prefer, both will work) |
| |
| * Added an experimental feature to generate a yaboot.conf on the |
| fly based on command line options. The defaults should be |
| workable on a Debian system with an internal ATA disk, with the |
| root partition being the 3rd on the disk. Depends on mktemp for |
| creating the temporary file, Debian's mktemp is secure against |
| race conditions, use with caution if your distribution lacks a |
| secure mktemp utility. This option is activated with -c auto. |
| |
| * No longer depends on bash. Works with Debian's |
| /bin/ash. Interpreter is now set to /bin/sh. |
| |
| * Assorted cleanup, minor bug fixes. |
| |
| * Added example yaboot.conf. |
| |
| 2000-02-04 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.10 |
| |
| * Added a simple multi-boot menu written by Benjamin Herrenschmidt. |
| |
| 2000-01-17 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.9 |
| |
| * mkofboot was still broken. :-( |
| |
| |
| 2000-01-14 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.8 |
| |
| * Added a basic CHRP script ofboot.b to work around the problem of |
| OF refusing to load `tbxi' files unless they contain a CHRP boot |
| header. See README.ofboot.b for details. |
| |
| * Updated default ybin.conf to install ofboot.b by default. |

| |
| * Version 0.5 |
| |
| * First public release. |
| |
| * Add TODO and BUGS files. |
| |

| are root before proceeding to erase the partition. |

| * ybin: Removed useless echo line. |
| |
| 2000-01-05 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.4 |
| |
| * ybin (util_install): Fully support OF `wrappers' now: if a |
| wrapper is defined in the configuration file then the wrapper is |
| given the HFS file type specified instead of the bootfile, the |
| bootfile's type is set to "boot". |
| |
| * ybin: New configuration option `bless' when yes and are using |
| hfsutils we will `bless' the root directory of the bootstrap |
| filesystem so OF should be able to find and boot the system |
| without reconfiguration. |
| |
| * mkofboot/ybin (checkconf): Add validation for the new `bless' |
| option. Also add check that the wrapper, if defined, exists and we |
| have permission to it. |
| |
| 2000-01-04 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.3. |
| |
| * ybin (util_install): Quote the filetype/creator arguments to |
| hattrib to prevent the shell from interpreting any meta-characters |
| in some cases. Also no longer try and set metadata on wrapper if |
| there is no wrapper. |
| |
| * mkofboot: When creating hfs or dos filesystems give them volume |
| label of "bootstrap". |
| |
| 2000-01-03 Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net> |
| |
| * Version 0.2. |
| |
| * mkofboot: added -w switch to grep when checking if a filesystem |
| is already mounted to prevent erroneous positive matches. |
| |
| * ybin (util_install): Add check to make sure that the target |
| device is not mounted as a filesystem before mucking with it. |
| |
| * Added changelog. |
