Jordan K. Hubbard 7d98f8beea Fix a long-standing bug with the label editor I just found (you could
mount two dos partitions with the same name).

Neaten up a dialog box that was encroaching on the right edge.

Joerg Wunsch 43276d065c Reincarnate one occurance of RELEASEDIR, since the build depends on
it inside some Makefiles.  (Duh-oh, i've once included these references
there myself! :)

Noticed by akira@silvia.myaw.ei.meisei-u.ac.jp (Akira WATANABE), and by
my yesterday's build.

Joerg Wunsch 28e9fe52bf Add the ex(4) driver to hardware.hlp.
Wipe out most of the obsoleted (2.2-related) changelist from the

Folks, if you add some major feature in -current, please consider
recording it here.  Our users love to know what they're getting by
reading it in a single file.  In particular, the Lite2 mergers might
consider adding information here.

Joerg Wunsch fbc6f9e0ff . Remove the ${RELEASEDIR} variable, it turned out to be a constant

. Add /usr/share/misc/scsi_modes to the fixit floppy, and set the

. Cleanup the (commented out) tags in the entry section a little, to
  be more up-to-date.

Jordan K. Hubbard ea9a505d0c Don't nuke localtime and timezone files so aggressively now.
This is tzsetup's job (and only if you don't cancel out, which
is why having sysinstall remove them was so bogus).
1997-02-16 23:54:58 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 80beefc082 1. Always write out /etc/hosts.
2. Back out my change to ask about UTC/Localtime here.  This *really* needs

   1/4 of the places where it needs to be.

Jordan K. Hubbard c5566bcff7 o Try to be more aggressive about reading in old configuration data
so that we're more useful in multi-user mode.  This is still not
  100%, but it pulls in a lot more than it used to.  Some of the "composite"
  variables in /etc/sysconfig are going to take more work.

o Always write /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/hosts if it makes sense to do
  so.

o Reset media properly when reselecting.  Longstanding bogon.

o Pull SIGPIPE handling out of package.c; I'm actually hoping to handle
  this differently shortly.

o Fix bug where cancel in TCP setup dialog still checked data fields.
  I think this closes a PR, but I will have to go look.

Jordan K. Hubbard d733b8a9fb I need to learn to read man pages more closely. readlink() does NOT null
append the return string (bleah!) so you need to do it yourself.  This
explains why Bus and PS/2 meece weren't displayed in the Mouse selection
menu.
1997-01-24 19:31:53 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 5214787fd5 OK, I've got two ideas to file in the "really seemed like a good idea
at the time, but on further reflection..." bucket with these changes.

1. Checking the media before frobbing the disks was a fine idea, and
   I wish it could have worked, but that leads to a rather difficult
   situation when you need to mount the media someplace and you're about
   to:

	a) Chroot away from your present root.
	b) Newfs the root to be.

   You're basically screwed since there's no place to stick the mount
   point where it will be found following the newfs/chroot (and eliminating
   the chroot in favor of just using the "root bias" feature would work
   great for the distributions but not the pkg_add calls done by the
   package installer).

2. Automatic timeout handling.  I don't know why, but alarm() frequently
   returns no residual even when the alarm didn't go off, which defies
   the man page but hey, since when was that so unusual?  Take out timeouts
   but retain the code which temporarily replaces the SIGINT handler in
   favor of a more media-specific handler.  This way, at least, if it's hanging
   you can at least whap it.  I think the timeout code would have been losing
   over *really slow* links anyway, so it's probably best that it go.

This should fix NFS, tape & CDROM installs again (serves me right for getting
complacent and using just the FTP installs in my testing).

Jordan K. Hubbard 76d01c999a This is a patch that makes some of the "partitions" --> "slice" to be

Jordan K. Hubbard 898f607a63 Argh! Moving the media initialization to before the disk scribbling
section was a good thing, since it made it possible to detect media problems
*before* the installation started, but it also caused various things to
be mounted BEFORE the chroot() call, which definitely messes things up.

Fix this by detecting the pre-chroot() case and mounting into a subdir.

2. U&G management screen didn't respect cancel properly.
3. Novice not prompted to add users or set root password during installation.
4. Username length changes screw up user management form.

avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.

2. Make sure network device is initialized in ftpInit
3. Eliminate bogus size values in the menus.  For now, we'll have to admit
   that nobody's added it up yet.  In the future, these menus should be
   build dynamically anyway, not declared static.
4. Add more debugging to networking code to chase the mystery ppp device
   problem.

Joerg Wunsch 18e5f50832 Documentation update.
Remove a duplicate entry for ahc0 in hardware.hlp (closes PR #
docs/2282), a few additions all over the place while i was at it.

Tried to add as much of the important highlights for the new features
in 2.2 into the release notes.  I still think that many things are
missing here, so folks, if you imported something great that's in 2.2
but not in 2.1.X, please review this section and send us your
additions!

on single file distributions now, that means I can also finally add a
progress indicator for them.

Change installation instructions to note that there's no dists directory
anymore on CDROMs.
