Jordan K. Hubbard ccfcf93e53 1. Adjust fs sizes to get floppies back under control.
2. Viciously slash all CD support out of boot.flp.  It's basically just
   a net boot floppy now.

Jordan K. Hubbard 92e86f9920 Hammer on the boot floppy generation bits some more. This is looking
a little better.

Jordan K. Hubbard c42340bcb7 Put mfsroot.gz on yet another filesystem so that the boot blocks
can really read it.  Hmm.  I have no idea *how* this worked in our
earlier tests on the x86. :)

Jordan K. Hubbard b9dd246109 Add a tweak for the alpha. 1998-10-03 14:10:28 +00:00
John Hay 4f0591349b Make the vn device that is being used to build the floppies configurable.
You can now do something like "make release VNDEVICE=vn1". This makes it
possible to do something else with vn0, for instance building another
release.

Jordan K. Hubbard b386088ba6 1. Sync ABOUT.TXT changes.
2. Go back to using a filesystem on the boot floppy; the rawboot boot blocks
   were just too non-functional for other things.

crisis.

Joerg Wunsch 1117d2af7a Make the reduction algorithm to tune the file system size less
aggressive, in order to avoid /mnt: file system full problems.

Introduce a deadlock counter.

Turn off echoing again, it's cluttering the screen/log.

Gross hack to avoid the `vn0: invalid primary partition table: no magic'
warning.

Seems that doFS.sh is now doing the job...

Joerg Wunsch bc8a32f09c Remove phk's errr... interesting idea of slicing a floppy into 10
cylinder groups. :)

Poul-Henning Kamp c66cda217a I belive this works now. 1996-01-14 19:10:16 +00:00
Poul-Henning Kamp a91fd1190d Shrink BOOTMFS kernel further. Make doFS.sh more intelligent.
boot4.flp should work fine as far as I can tell.

Poul-Henning Kamp f477ac8ae6 Don't make the fs-image in /dev :-) 1996-01-10 06:32:22 +00:00
Poul-Henning Kamp 288fe4dbdf Moved doFS into shell-script so we can be more smart about it.
make two boot floppies, one without help files for 4MB systems.
Mine's loading one now. :-)  -O2 may be needed.
