Cool! Committed to -current. Of course, this should really be rolled into the loader so that the sequence is more like this: <boot kern.flp> Would you like to load any additional kernel modules (y/n)? y Please insert modules floppy and press return: <forth script runs which presents menu for all items on modules floppy, doing loads on any selected> Please insert mfsroot floppy and press return: <mfsroot is loaded as usual> <system boots into sysinstall> That way there's no need for a deviceRescan() and the user doesn't have to remember to invoke the Load KLD menu item before selecting an Installation type. I remember some german(?) guy even writing a bunch of FICL primitives for doing those sorts of UIs. I wonder what ever happened to that stuff? - Jordan > > On 13-Sep-2001 Jordan Hubbard wrote: > > Cool, can I see it? > > Sure.. > http://www.gsoft.com.au/~doconnor/sysinstall-kld.diff > > Mmm dynamic libdialog menus :) > > --- > Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer > for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au > "The nice thing about standards is that there > are so many of them to choose from." > -- Andrew Tanenbaum To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
