Modified files:
usr.sbin/sysinstall index.c
Log:
Add support for an additional field to the packages/INDEX file. If
present, this field specifies the media volume that the disc is
contained on. If the volume of a given packages is different than the
current volume of mediaDevice, then the user is prompted --
"This is disc #%d. Package %s is on disc #%d\n"
"Would you like to switch discs now?\n"
If the user selects yes, then DEVICE_SHUTDOWN is called and the user
is then prompted --
"Please remove disc #%d from you drive, and add disc #%d"
This works well for a carefully crafted INDEX file, but more work
needs to be done to sort dependencies on a given package based on the
volume that they reside on, to minimize the amount of disc flipping
required of the user.
This commit is a no-op for normal INDEX files and FreeBSD CDs. These
additional features are only used if the INDEX and cdrom.inf file have
multi-volume support.
