jkh 95/09/24 17:52:17 Branch: release RELENG_2_1_0 release/sysinstall RELENG_2_1_0 Modified: release Makefile boot_crunch.conf fixit_crunch.conf root_crunch.conf release/sysinstall decode.c ftp_strat.c install.c media.c menus.c network.c sysinstall.h system.c Log: Great big batch-o-fixes. jkh: Change the fixit floppy paradigm somewhat. Rather than having a fixit floppy be a stand-alone boot floppy with emasculated command set due to space crunch, make boot floppy a filesystem of nice utilities and *no* kernel. The idea is that you boot the standard boot floppy and choose the "Fixit" item off the top menu. It then asks for and mounts the fixit floppy, adds the mount point to $PATH and then forks a shell with the inherited PATH. You can use the shell to traipse around the filesystem, tweaking things as desired. Mutate the useless shell option in first menu to far more useful fixit. Fix the bogus `ifconfig sl0' case once and for all with a special case hack for cuaa0. gpalmer: Fix benign-yet-bogus incorrect `password' to anon ftp sites. joerg: Allow cpio to guess at input format again.
